@whosrdaddy said in Extruder sometimes cuts out in middle of long prints:

In 10 hrs of printing since adding grounding the extruder motor body (on a PG35L), with two prints, I haven't seen this issue recur yet. This isn't proof of a fix, but it's highly encouraging, since the MTBF seemed on the order of a few hours previously.

I used a wire that is tucked between the outer shell and the heatsink, and connected to the power supply ground.

Excited to be able to try other stuff now - updating to Duet firmware 2.0, trying out other slicers, etc!

Doc changes look good! Thanks.

I honestly don't know if a configurable minimum would provide much value. The main use case I can think of for a really slow move is Z plunges with tiny, fragile bits; you might ask any PCB milling machine vendor what speed they default to, and see if you can go slightly slower. I can't think of any super-slow X/Y feedrate use cases; going slow could generate more heat and wear than you'd want, and it would take forever to do the cut. In my case I only saw it on X because I wanted a display to show in inches.
