problems with pressure advance calibration

Veti

whats your e acceleration. pressure advance needs high numbers for that to work.

also check out the guide i just posted

Veti

also what kind of setup do you have?
direct drive or bowden?

nick9one1

thanks. about 650mm bowden.
its a BLVMGN core XY

M566 X820.00 Y820.00 Z24.00 E300.00            	; set maximum instantaneous speed changes (mm/min)
M203 X20000.00 Y20000.00 Z600.00 E2000.00      	; set maximum speeds (mm/min)
M201 X3000.00 Y3000.00 Z100.00 E5000.00        	; set accelerations (mm/s^2)
M906 X1100 Y1100 Z1100 E1100 I30               	; set motor currents (mA) and motor idle factor in per cent

@Veti Thanks. Printing your modified test cube now.

I set M201 X500 Y500 in config.g

Sliced the cube as per the instructions. 100mm/s, 0.3 layer height, 0% infill, and M572 D0 S{layer_z*0.02} in the layer change g-code.

the only slight alteration I made was to ensure the later changes were in the middle fo a face, not at the corner. I think its easier to identify the correct pressure advance this way.

Veti

depending on the quality of your bowden tube you might need to go above 1 as 650mm is quite long

and you dont need infill for the test qube

@Veti

thanks. It was just the top layers I forgot to set to 0. Infill is already 0 with 3 walls.

that doesnt look to good to begin with.

about the middle looks a bit better then the rest.

Increase your E jerk. Try 3000.

nick9one1

thanks. Increased Ejerk to 3000 and printing again, but only 2 walls this time for speed.

The previous print was 100mm/s

nick9one1

Looking much better at 3000 e jerk. Thanks for that tip.

Around halfway looks about the best.
I can see the right side of each new layer is changes but not the end of previous layer -how do I tune this?

Run another test but zero in on the area from the middle area and use finer steps between jumps.

For the bulge from layer change you can also increase your Z axis jerk and accel a bit more. Try M566 Z60 and M201 Z200 or higher.

Do you have retract on layer change enabled in the slicer as well? That can help.

retract on layer change

Thank you. Yes I have retract on layer change enabled

I've changed the z values you suggested and set the slicer to start the pressure advance at 0.035 in increments to 0.055. Printing now

nick9one1

I'm definitely getting closer..

I think pressure advance is well tuned now, but I still have extra extrusion on the left.

This is with ;
M566 Z90
M201 Z300

my original settings were;
M566 Z24
M201 Z100

Turn off wipe while retracting and re-run the test.
