@infiniteloop said in Mesh Compensation Overcompensating a bit?:
@suntoxx It’s a bit late for a comprehensive reply, but I will try my best …
Without the use of a preprocessor, I don’t know a way to automatically confine the mesh to an area used by the actual print.
Check out the Prusaslicer startcode i found last night. It works nicely! Just wish that Duet would handle it and not that you got to adjust it according to each slicer.
Maybe you could try some faster acceleration, 100 for Z looks quite moderate to me.
Z acceleration seems moderate in comparison to the other axis? What would that improve? I guess not much in terms of time. Less stringing?
Your Edits prove the value of a narrow mesh. However, mechanical precision of a printer is limited (not only by the BLTouch or the steppers), so it’s worth to take a look at first layer adhesion, too. To improve this, you could play with print speed, bed and hotend temperatures.
Yes, i am quite far up in temperature I think, using 70° and 235° for PLA for this print. I actually did have an adhesion problem too on this print, at least on some print positions. I did not know that Iso and paper is not enough. Using dishwasher or window cleaner now on top and adhesion on the king sheet is sufficient for this more difficult print.
Edit: Adjusted z by 0.01mm and result is consistent and perfect now! 😄 😎
