have problems with mesh bed leveling
-
if you explain how i can do that
thats my bed.g

I'm not quite sure why you have a bulge in the bed (possibly expansion due to heating?) but you do have a 'tramming' issue. This is shown by, on the left of your bed map, the high point at the front and the low point at the back, while on the right it is relatively level. This means that your Y axis smooth rods are not level. Assuming this is a cartesian printer with a bed that moves in Y, which most likely has four feet, and is not sat on a flat surface, so one corner of your printer is lifted. The easiest fix for this is to put a shim (folded piece of paper, 1mm thick) under the front left foot of the printer.
To resolve other issues we'll need to know more about the printer; type and construction of heated bed, layout of rods etc. Or post a picture of it.

Why are all of the commands in your bed.g commented out?
As to getting G29 to do a simplified 4 point probe try M557 X5:215 Y9:210 P2.
Those values are determined by the values in your bed.g file. In that file you specify the first two points as X215,Y210 and X215,Y9 with the X of the third point as X5. So I am using the X range (5 to 215) and the Y range (9 to 210) to specify the four points of a rectangle which would give you a simplified height map showing just the overall levelness of the bed.
Now I don't recall if the M557 command needs to be set taking into account the probe offset or not.
I don't use the bed leveling assistant as I find it hard to turn the adjustment screws just the amount reported.
I just use G29 with 4 point probing near the corners of the bed. Then I can look at the values reported in the height map and tweak the adjustment screws. It takes a number of runs of G29 but I find that I can get the four points adjusted within 0.005 mm easily and within 0.001 mm with a bit more work.
One I have the bed leveled to my satisfaction then I use G29 with multi-point probing to determine the actual mesh compensation to use during printing.

i still try it
thanks

it seems almost perfect

Hi,
Were you actually running the bed.g file with all of the commands commented out?

my bed.g is like this:

G29 with multi-point probing i got this output
-
If you compare the simple 4 points, with the multi point it certainly looks like your bed has a huge bulge. try rotating the surface or flipping it over to confirm it is a physical issue with the bed surface.

ok shit
can you recommend me a good bed ?
-
today i have changed the bed and all is flat
now,what i do first before i start print?
G29 S1 ; Load Mesh
G32 to Level the 2 independend Z-Motorsand the start print is correct ? if yes my prints starts over the air if do this
-
Well for my DBOT equipped with 3 Z-axis steppers and I am leveling the bed and/or creating the height map as separate operations via Macros
For printing I:
- warm the bed and extruder heater for several minutes
- home all
- set the "Z=0 Datum" using the Z-probe
- load the height map
- begin print

for Simplify3d in Endscript is the code like this ?
G28 ; home all axis G1 X110 Y110 ; Go to Center G30 ; Z=0 Datum G29 S1 ; Load Mesh -
The only gcode I have in S3D is to use M98 to invoke two macros, print_begin.g and print_end.g

Hi
i have never used macros, can you explain me ho to use it ?
thanks a lot for your help

A macro is just a file containing G-codes. You use M98 P"macro filename" to run a macro by name.
They are great for putting the code for a specific function which you might want to run from various places in one file so there's only one file to edit when you need to change things.
For example, you could have the code needed to home your X, Y and Z axes repeated in both homeall.g and the individual home macros. Or, you could just call the individual home macros from homeall.g

ok nice !
for example for z=Datum
Zdatum.g
G1 X110 Y110 ; Go to bed center
G30 ; Probe onceand then i can insert in Simplify3d in Startscript
M98 Zdatum.g
is it correct ?

@lui2004 said in have problems with mesh bed leveling:

You're very close:
M98 P"Datum.g" -
yeah i will do my best ,i will learn
