Axles move differently on a job

What happens if you send........(Make sure the printer is homed first).

G1 X231

Then send

G1 X130

Those are two X axis moves from your gcode file rounded down. What should happen is that the print head should move to a position 231mm in the X direction from your origin after the first move, then it should move to a position 130mm in the X direction from your origin. The distance between the 2 positions should be 101mm.

What does your machine setup look like in Cura?

Your T1 definition has some offsets. Is the tool unable to reach all printable areas on the bed?

@phaedrux

the bed is huge (this is also visible in my config.g). what surprises me about cura's gcode is that it enters the min and max values of the axes incorrectly, even though i specified this in cura in the machine configuration. I also set REPRAP in cura. Are there any conversion problems known? Is there better experience with Prusa Slicer or other slicers?

You mean this?

;MINX:128.363
;MINY:522.24
;MINZ:0.6
;MAXX:232.963
;MAXY:626.84
;MAXZ:5

I think that's just the area of the sliced object, no? At any rate those aren't actual commands for the Duet so will have no effect.

Can you share some screen shots of your Cura machine settings?

So you can send the exact same X axis travel commands that are in your sliced gcode and the movement is as expected at 100mm. But you claim that when you print that gcode file, containing the same commands, the X axis only moves 60mm. I have no idea what could cause that.

@phaedrux !
the settings are not very spectacular. I created a custom printer with the fantasy name DUKA1200. I deactivated extruder 1 because I only want to work with one extruder for the time being. The second extruder does exist on the machine, but I won't test it until next year at the earliest.

Can you post your homing files?
Have you tried another slicer yet? PrusaSlicer perhaps?

axiom

@phaedrux Sorry, i don´t understand "homing files". I didnt try another slicer yet...but i will try

Phaedrux

Homing files are the homex.g homey.g homez.g homeall.g files located in the system tab in DWC. They are the macros executed when you home an axis. They dictate how the homing will proceed.
