Piezo Orion + RRF 3.... Problems
-
@arhi hm . changed from 1 to 25 and nothing changed
-
@chop what do you expect to change?
-
@arhi the trigger value in dwc its @ 492 and with s lot of preasure it Gos over 500
-
@chop what you see in DWC is the read of the analog value, that will not change by any g-code, it's what the orion is sending and it changes as the orion is deformed. the G31 I gave you changes the threshold. to see the threshold value you need to send just G31
-
@arhi ah okay. Ty! Today i will give some anti backlash nuts a shot. After install i will try your Tipps.
-
So it works! Thank you for your help. But now I have the next problem. How can I use the orion correctly? How do I set z. no matter what I do . He starts printing in the air. With rrf3 I determine z with 92z0 right? Then I create a mesh. What do I have to enter in his? I'm still new to rrf. before marlin sorry. do not quite understand all of this yet
-
@chop now you need to manually figure out the Z offset of the probe and put it in the config.
- super important is that you heat up your bed and nozzle before you home Z with the orion
- super important that you clean a nozzle before you probe (so heat up, wipe, retract, wipe is what I do, visually inspect when nozzle is sitting above center of the bed that nozzle is clean)
- after you home Z, you then need to find the "offset"
this offset is normally in the range of 0 to -0.1mm depending on how sensitive your orion is and how fast you probe so it's basically the travel your bed does during a trigger delay. how to setup this offset ... ppl have different preferences, what I do is I'd leave nozzle in the center of the bed (homing position) and do
G0Z1this should have your nozzle close to the bed but not touching it
disable soft limits
M564 S0 H0now I put piece of paper between nozzle and bed and start reducing this value
G0Z0.5G0Z0.3
G0Z0.2
...
G0Z-0.2
...till I get to point that paper is being grabbed by the nozzle
this position need to be your Z0 so see how far you are from it (you know what Z value you gave it), change the sign of that value and put in the config of the probe (G31, the Z value):
e.g.:G31 X0 Y0 Z-0.1 P250
hope this helps
btw, do this while everything is HOT and nozzle is clean. Otherwise not much point in using orion, as if you probe cold those are not real value during print.... this is why I like the durable print surfaces like printbite as if you have those soft print surfaces they can dislike the hot nozzle so then you might want to work hot but heat up the bed to your print temperature but heat up the nozzle to lower temp like 100-120C enough for it to "get bigger" but not hot enough to damage the print board if you mess something up

one hint, since digging hot nozzle into print bed is a real solution when you do this first time I suggest you use a PCB on top of your print bed, or use glass as your print surface for the first test... so both probe over the hard surface that's temperature resistent (pcb/FR4 or glass) and start the first print on top of such surface to be sure you got the probing and configuration (offset) properly calibrated
going further, one other hint .. before you start printing, make sure that ORION Is ok and that you are not drowning in noise .. so run a test probing same point many times
-
@arhi ty . I will try. But, how to set z0 corect? After z0 i can set offset !? Right? Once i get the offset. I have to tell the Slicer to use the mesh?

Make sure the dynamic test is successful (Z probe stops when it senses the bed) before doing this.
Cancel any currently active mesh compensation with M561
Use the X and Y jog buttons to position the nozzle over the centre of the bed
Jog the nozzle down until it is just touching the bed or just gripping a sheet of paper. If the firmware doesn't let you jog it down far enough, send M564 S0 to disable axis limits.
Once you have the nozzle touching the bed, send command G92 Z0 to tell the firmware that the head is at Z=0
Jog the head up by 5 to 10mm
Send command G30 S-1. The nozzle will descend or the bed rise until the probe triggers and the Z height at which the probe stopped will be reported. If you are using a nozzle-contact Z probe, the trigger height will be slightly negative. For any other type of Z probe where the probe triggers before the nozzle contacts the bed, it will be positive.
Repeat from step 5 two or three times to make sure that the trigger height is consistent.
In Duet Web Control, go to Settings -> System Editor and edit the config.g file. Set the Z parameter in the G31 command to the trigger height that was reported. Save the file.
Open config-override.g and check that there are no G31 commands in it. If you find any, delete those lines and save the file.
To apply the new trigger height, restart the Duet by sending M999 or pressing Emergency Stop.Thats what i do...print starts mid air

testing the repeatability - very important with piezo

@chop said in Piezo Orion + RRF 3.... Problems:
Thats what i do...print starts mid air
what is your G31 config line now?
what does yourG31report when you execute it?
did you run repeatability macro? -
-
@chop that is nicely repeatable, you have it working good I'd say
you need to change your G31, if you are printing in the air you need to lower the value more into negative... zo try Z-0.1 or Z-0.15 or even more Z-0.2 till you get satisfying first layer. I never seen it need more then -0.15 for ppiezo but .. if I didn't see it, it does not mean it does not exist
-
also - did you probe with heated nozzle?! if you are not probing with nozzle and bed at printing temperature that can account for a wrong (too high) required offset
-
@arhi i prob @ 80 on bed and 130 on nozzle
-
@chop those temps should be ok, just increase the offset a bit (absolute increase, the value need to go more in the negative)
-
@arhi if my bed isnt good levelt. i have to make a grid? with my current z0? and the orion knows where the bes is + or -? or i need g29 s1?
-
What thats mean?
-
means that your config is not ok
you need to first setup G31 with proper offset
then you need to home
then you need to G29
