Dual motor bed tilt-compensation only goes through the motions

@equanimity8 said in Dual motor bed tilt-compensation only goes through the motions:
M671 X105:105 Y0:150 S5 ; leadscrews at left (connected to Z) and right (connected to E1) of X axis
M208 X0 Y0 Z0 S1 ; set axis minima
M208 X210 Y150 Z150 S0 ; set axis maximathis would mean that the leadscrews are inside the bed. that seems incorrect
G31 X0 Y0 Z-0.25 P600
what kind of probe is it?
M305 P1 T100000 B4138 R4700 ; set thermistor + ADC parameters for heater 1
your thermistor config is wrong. look up the correct beta value in your thermistor documentation.
also check that you are on at least firmware 2.05.1
-
@Veti I have redacted my config.g to M671 X105:105 Y-20:170 S5 and it made no difference.
The probe is a precision piezo.
What makes you think my thermistor value is wrong? I printed a successful calibration cube and all readings seemed accurate. This is a freshly configured firmware, should it make a difference, but my previous setup was identical in that regard.
I am indeed running 2.05.1.

I think this depends on how the bed is supported. My understanding is that what you need to specify is the locations at which the bed pivots. In the case of a conventional prusa style bed with two lead screws either side of a bed with a subframe this will be at the leadscrew positions. But with a corexy you often have a rigid plate style bed that pivots at the support points, in which case you want to use the positions of the support points. At least I think that is how it works!

because 4138 is the default, and for a thermistor that has not been in use for some time.
the dimension have nothing to do with this.depending on your thermistor, the actual temperature can easily be off by 20 degrees.
M584 X0 Y1 Z2:4 E3
is your second z really connected on the e1 and not the second z?
-
@Veti
Thanks for clarifying. I looked up E3D's v6 documentation and they indeed specify a different value (M305 P1 B4725 C7.060000e-8).Yes, my second motor is connected to driver e1, no independent motor tilt-compensation would be possible otherwise.

M561 ; clear any bed transform
G28 ; homeyour home load the height map again.
remove the G29 S1 from the homeall and move that to the start of your slicer
-
@Veti
I commented out G29 S1 and there was no change in behaviour i.e. my bed compensation mesh still shows significant tilt that should have been corrected by G32.Further, why would G28 load my height map again? To the best of my knowledge, it homes all axes, it doesn't execute homeall.g.

that is not true. and you can easily test this by executing G28 twice from the console.
can you run 3 G32 in succession and post the output?
btw where is your M557 definition for the mesh?

The console output of 3 consequitive G32s:
11/1/2020, 12:09:59 PM G32 Leadscrew adjustments made: 0.019 -0.044, points used 2, deviation before 0.028 after 0.000 11/1/2020, 12:09:43 PM G32 Leadscrew adjustments made: 0.007 -0.057, points used 2, deviation before 0.035 after 0.000 11/1/2020, 12:09:32 PM G32 Leadscrew adjustments made: 0.019 -0.044, points used 2, deviation before 0.028 after 0.000I execute it from a macro, which is as follows:

the output suggest its already level as those error are normally within the probes inaccuracies
-
This is a screenshot of my height map and the relevant statistics after G32 and mesh bed compensation. Should I assume that this is normal, given the capabilities of my setup and that there is no way to improve it without improving the hardware?

your leadscrews are at the middle top and bottom. it can only change an error in the y plane
adjustments to the leadscrews can not possibly change a twist in the opposite x plane.
you need 3 leadscrews for that -
Yep, I though the same but I wanted to make sure after, apparently I got the initial misconception about G28. Thanks a lot for clarifying that to me! Enjoy your weekend!
