Bizarre DAA Extrusion Issues
-
I had been chasing down some ringing artifacts on my custom tool changer and after playing with acceleration and jerk settings to no avail, I gave Dynamic Acceleration Adjustment a try. Printing a single test cube I found that M953 F38 reduced my artifacts tremendously.
The obvious next step was a multi material print. After a few layers I paused the print and noticed my extrusions were all messed up. The solid infill looked way under extruded, and it seemed like the perimeters on the first few layers were over extruded.
I played around with extrusion multipliers, extrusion temperatures, extrusion widths, extruder acceleration and jerk settings, all the normal stuff...
I was lost until a community member mentioned DAA, and I immediately commented out DAA and did my test prints again.
It looked perfect, but more investigation was needed.
I did many tests, and have shown 4 of them below. Each print consisted of 2 40mm squares only 0.80mm tall printed on separate extruders and about 5mm apart. The pictures are only of 1 of the 2 squares printed in each test, the others are red and don't show the artifacts as easily. Print speeds were around 25mm/s with 1 perimeter and 10% infill overlap.
The changes between them are self explanatory on the sheet.
It seems to me like DAA is affecting the behavior of my extruder, but I am not sure. Prints without DAA are clearly better, in terms of this issue, than those with it turned on.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Please post your config.g so we can see your speed, etc settings

Try:
M205 X360 Y360 Z180 E720:720:720:720 C90 ; Maximum jerk speeds mm/secYour current values are crazy low... I thinkM205 vs M566, oops!

nope, M205 is in mm/sec (see https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M205_Set_max_instantaneous_speed_change_in_mm_sec: This command is provided as an alternative to M566 for compatibility with Marlin. In M566 the units are mm/min as with all other speeds. In M205 they are in mm/sec.)

Oh man, totally correct! I hadn't started drinking my coffee yet when I wrote my comment!
Thanks for catching that! -
@KevinMar I wonder if you have your max accelerations set too low. DAA should be allowed to choose the acceleration based on the frequency you've targeted.
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Gcode#Section_M593_Configure_Dynamic_Acceleration_Adjustment
Acceleration limits set by M201 and M204 will still be honoured when DAA is enabled, so DAA will only ever reduce acceleration. Therefore your M201 and M204 limits must be high enough so that DAA can reduce the acceleration to the optimum value.

I raised my xy accelerations to 6000 and my E accelerations to 12000 i believe. Still getting funky results.
