    • RE: Flipped Features during print

      @dc42 In order to get the print head to home in the correct position (back right corner), I have the following setting in my firmware (picture).

      With these settings, X+ moves the print head to the left. Y+moves the print head towards the back of the machine. Z+ moves the bed down, away from the print head. If I change the firmware settings for Drive 0 (X) to go forwards, it moves away from the end stop.

      So, I understand that this is inverted somehow, but I am not sure what combination of Drives/End stops settings I need in order to home the print head in the right direction. Here is a screenshot of that section in my firmware setup.

      Still no luck. Even when it shows the part oriented correctly in S3D, it still flips the features. I have played with the "flip X, Y, Z" settings and tried about every combo available with the same results. Im stumped on this one.

      @dc42 Yes. The "flip Y axis" setting is selected. This is the first chance I have had to get back to this issue since the holidays. I will try turning that setting off and see if it solves the issue.

      @dc42 I did what you suggested and reversed the X axis and end stop. This caused the printer to want to home in the wrong direction. The home position on this machine is the back right corner (see pics). I will post the settings I have in the firmware, in order to home the tool in the correct position.

      I made a small test part with a cut to the left side and printed it to see if it would flip the cut like on the previous file. It DID NOT. It printed exactly how it was positioned in S3D.

      So, I deleted the .stl of the original part that I had issue with and tried again. Its still oriented incorrectly. I have taken some pictures that will hopefully help. Could this somehow be an issue with just this one part file?

      @dc42 X- moves the print head to the right. Y+ moves the print head away from me. Should this be reversed?

      @aidar I found that setting ( called flip build table axis) in the G-Code tab. The Y axis was in fact checked, although I am not sure why or how unless I clicked it on accident and didn't notice. I am going to run a smaller part and see if this solved the issue.

      Thanks for the input. I am using Simplify3D and I am not sure how I change that. I am using Simplify3D on my Prusa MK2S as well and do not encounter this issue.

      Its a Folgertech FT-5 with Duet Ethernet 2 board. It responds fine to moving the X and Y via web interface and touchscreen.

    • Flipped Features during print

      I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here goes. I ran a long print yesterday (overnight) and this morning when I checked the print, I noticed that all of the features (cuts/holes) in the print were mirrored on the wrong side of the part. Has anyone experienced this before? Pics below.
