Unless you are running an unusually heavy direct drive, the heated bed is MUCH heavier than the X axis. You could argue that the Y axis imparts a lower moment of inertia as it is closer to the bottom of the machine, but I've always found minimizing Y axis moves to improve quality on bed-slingers. Even the original dev of the lithophane site recommends printing minimizing Y movements on critical surfaces. Did not even stop to compare the two results.

I've had the best luck with detail by turning my photos black and white medium tones and then converting to stl. I've always printed them upwards on the z axis as well, not laying flat. I'll try my next one along the Y axis

@gravity-less3dprinting6243 жыл бұрын
If you are printing with extremely slow speed, the overall vibration become negligible in both axis, so the effect might be not observable. Hope my answer help to explain🙂

@@azaharuddinsk100 For our testing, we implement both 100% infill and increase the number of walls, the quality is good. If u want slightly lower printing time, u can try 99%infill, the quality will still be great but u need to choose the infill pattern.

Is the tip about printing along the Y axis still true with a printer like an Ender 5 where the bed only moves in Z? Thank you.
@gravity-less3dprinting6243 жыл бұрын
Hi, that is a very good question. The main idea is to print in the axis direction where the printer is having least vibrations. Beside the heat bed, the movement of the hot end will also contribute to the vibration. But for your case, Ender 5 (core xy printer) because the movement structure is almost similar along both x and y axis, it will be less difference in effect. Thus this tip will be not effective for you. Good luck and happy printing.

use a brim. you need to keep it from wobbling as it gets higher. make sure you have good bed adhesion. If you are printing on glass, try some glue stick.

I'd say try it yourself. It probably wouldn't waste but a teaspoon of resin, if it didn't work. You'd know within the first few layers if it will work.
