Adaptive head positioning
-
Hi there,
I have a setup made of 3 nozzles (3 materials) running on one driver.I have configured the tools offset with the configuration file - X and Y , Z is the same for all 3.
I've got a simple "calibration" file which I run to make sure that the offsets are correct.
The process is a bit slow and repetitive because small adjustments are needed.My thoughts are, is there a creative way to have/make an "Adaptive Head Positioning" - basically an option of changing each tools' offset while printing the g-code calibration file. One can't change the config file automatically but I thought maybe the head positioning numbers will change (somehow) and I can put those new numbers in the config file.
Or of course, If there's another suggestion for good and fast way to calibrate the 3 nozzles.
I am printing paste-like material with layer heights of 1mm, so this is a low-res printing that doesn't need a high-precision offset and can deal with high tolerances of the XYZ. having said that, some basic calibration is needed.
Cheers!

You can do the offsets in your calibration program by using G10 offsets.

I already have G10s' in the config file.
I'm using interchangeable tools which require calibration each time.I was inquiring if there's a (creative) way that I'm not familiar with to change the tools offset while running a gcode file.
