RE: Printer architecture
Do the duet board allow this kind of architecture (in the frimware I mean, without too much tweaking)?

RE: Printer architecture
I saw this thread http://forums.reprap.org/read.php?397,714601 about static motors for IDEX in a coreXY setup but I don't know if it's possible with a duet board.

RE: Printer architecture
I don't like to have a moving axis motor so IDEX with a carthesian moving system so it's not the best idea in my opinion.

RE: Printer architecture
Thanks a lot, I now have my printer general architecture.

RE: Printer architecture
You can use an two more external drivers on the CONN_LCD header with recent firmware
That would allow you to drive your 6th extruder.
Is this compatible with the panel due? What's the standard use of this header?

RE: Printer architecture
I will use both heads at the same times, one for the main structure in PLA, and one for the support material in PVA.

RE: Printer architecture
Is there any major differences betweens multiple motors on the same driver and map different motors? I need 6 extruders so I can't have two ∆a and ∆b motors.

RE: Printer architecture
OK so that's why you have two things moving. There's just a thing I don't understand, have you two Y motors on each corexy (see the image)? Lastly, how many Z motors do you have?
-
RE: Printer architecture
OK, that's good to know. Maybe it will ne usefull for the Z axis.
I saw you use direct extruders with your diamond, is it possible to use bowden to reduge the weight or it's a bad idea? -
RE: Printer architecture
My question is "is it possible to have multiples motors for one axis if there is a lot of weight and is it possible to use only one driver for all of them?"

RE: Printer architecture
Take a look at this on my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG1WqijJ634. I doubt very much if that would be possible on a bed that moves in X.
Do your bed moves in Z?

RE: Printer architecture
Initially I was planning a 300x300x400 build area, maybe more if I can. I will go to corexy.
Do you know if it's realy possible to have multiple X motors for the same driver? -
RE: Printer architecture
I will need 6 extruders, 5 for the fullcolor diamond hotend and one for the PVA, they will be on two different heads.
I think I will go toward a coreXY architecture but what's the n'est between a stationary bed or an X-moving bed?
Also, I saw somewhere that you can use the same driver for multiple X motors. Is that true?

Printer architecture
Hi!
I'm currently building a 3D printer with a duet board. I will have a five filament PLA diamond hotend and a PVA extruder. I will need more extruders and hotends later so I need something with evolution possibilities. I'm currently a bit lost when thinking about what architecte to use. Carthesian? Delta? CoreXY? I dont like to have a moving bed so do you have any idea about the most adapted architecture and why?
Thanks.
