Titan aero steps pr mm
-
After i upgraded to latest firmware, my extrution is way off .
Nomatter what i set the step pr mm to, it dosnt change a thing ?

Hello, M350 needs to be set before M92.

Hello, M350 needs to be set before M92.
not really, if you use M92 before M350, the firmware assumes 16x microstepping for M92.

Uhhm, yes, but he is using x32 miscrostepping.

from the documentation:
When M350 is processed, the steps/mm will be adjusted automatically to allow for any changes in microstepping. Therefore you can either: a) Set Steps/mm correctly for the default 1/16 microstepping, then set the microstepping to the desired amount using M350:
M92 X80 Y80 Z400 ; set axis steps/mm
M92 E420:430 ; set extruder 0 and 1 steps/mm
M350 X128 Y128 Z128 E128:128 ; set microstepping -
@Camalot977: I don't know if it matters but interpolation only works with 16x microstepping.
from the documentation:M350: Set microstepping mode
Usage
M350 Xnn Ynn Znn Enn Inn
Parameters
Not all parameters need to be used, but at least one should be used. As with other commands, RepRapFirmware reports the current settings if no parameters are used.
Xnn Set stepping mode for the X axis
Ynn Set stepping mode for the Y axis
Znn Set stepping mode for the Z axis
Enn Set stepping mode for Extruder 0 (use Enn:nn:nn etc. for multiple extruders)
Inn Enable (nn=1) or disable (nn=0) microstep interpolation mode for the specified drivers, if they support it. The Duet WiFi and Duet Ethernet support interpolation (to x256 microstepping) only when configured for x16 microstepping. -
You are right. I got confused, sorry.
I'm going to bed now

i tried swapping M92 and M350 as sugested. Still doesnt change a thing ?
the fun part is that it worked fine before ??

Uhhm, yes, but he is using x32 miscrostepping.
But if the M350 is after the M92 then the Steps/mm is adjusted automatically and without you needing to do it manually and this is exactly how he should have it arranged unless of course he is using 40 tooth pulleys which I doubt.

What is actual problem you have with the extruder? Changing firmware shouldn't have any effect. If you have a 1.8 degree motor, the steps per mm at 16x on a titan should be around 400. For a 0.9 degree motor they will be double that so around 800. If you use 32X micro stepping those figures will all be double that again. If you set steps per mm first, this will default to 16x so if you change micro stepping after, then Duet will re-calculate for you.
What you have above is set micro stepping to 32x in you M305, then set the steps per mm using that 32x to 907 which is close for a 1.8 degree stepper but for a 0.9 degree stepper, it is only half of what you need.
BTW, don't try and print with what you have above because you've also changed the steps per mm for X and Y (probably Z as well). For a 20 tooth pulley and 1.8 degree stepper the steps per mm will be 80 at 16x micro stepping so setting the micro stepping to 32 then setting the steps per mm to 80 will only give you half the movement.

actually the correct value for a Titan is 837 steps for a 0.9 degree motor on x16
-
my problem is that it dosnt extrude enough filament . only about half.
It's a 9 degree stepper and i have had it running fine.measuring 100 mm filament and mark it and tell it to extrude 100 mm. it only extrudes 60 mm with this setup ?

That config looks fine to me. After calibrating, I run a tad over 400 steps per mm @ 16x on all 5 of my Titans with 1.8 degree motors, so 837 would be about right for 0,9 degree motors. If it was a firmware problem then lots of us would be experiencing issues so I'd say that it's purely coincidental that your problems started after the firmware upgrade. Suggest you look for a partial blockage or some restriction in the hot end that is causing the extruder to skip steps or grind the filament.

Are you using the E3D pancake motor as extruder drive? In that case I would use more current for the extruder, I use 1200mA (24V) and get good results, with lower current I the extruder occasionally skipped steps…
-
And it has worked fine for me too until i updated firmware ???? it makes no sense i know . But its a fact. I even tried re uploading the firmware with no change
So somewhere in my files there is a little gnome teasing me
Pancake? dunno . its the motor delivered with the titan ( e3d ) 26 mm thick . And i run on 12V on my system
-
no config is fine, Check M122 to see if you have skipped steps after extrusion.
I would try to extrude without the heater block connected (in case of clogged nozzle). -
Facepalm
Thank you all for your input
And thank you whosrdaddy for the solution. i tried extruding without the heatbloc connectet.
And filament extrudes as it should. so after a cleanup it should work fine .Thanks again

I
ve had a problem with my titan aero , Ive not been able to get to extrude more than about 80mm out of 100mm whatever setting I used .
I didn`t think about it being a stepper motor under current problem , so decided to give it a try and for the first time with a setting of 1400ma got it to over extrude.I think the 800ma default is a little too low for most steppers , but I guess they are working on safety first ?.

No firmware update has affected my titan aero.
I would like to ask you how old is your extruder? I'm asking you this as there was an issue with the titan aero bearings. I had my aero working great until I moved it onto my new coreXY and and the extrusions were inconsistent. It took me a while before i eventually figured out that the bearings were causing this problem due to a friction increase as a result of not only missing steps but also the extruder was getting jammed.
With new bearings I can still use the pancake (slim nema motor that comes with aero) but I still had to increase the current to 1000 (M906 E1000 I50)
I am currently using x16 microstepping and works great
