as if on cue!

Just a concept:
with DaVinci providing filament made for inkjet printing ink, could you put a USB driven inkjet printhead behind/in front/beside(idex) the regular filament printhead and inkjet print color onto each layer..? kind of a poor mans polyjet. I saw the 'print full color using sharpie markers' but everyone says using the markers affects print layer adhesion. This way you would print a layer using filament, then print inkjet ink onto the outside layers, then move up for the next layer etc. Now waste, full color. Worth exploring?

Instead of two gantries, I wonder if this design would work better with two print heads on each side for a total of 4 print heads (this one only has one on each side):
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4481112
That way you only have one Z to worry about. You can park each head until needed for 4 filament prints, and still do the duplicate/mirror function with just two heads. The hashPrinter can print four at once, definitely a plus over this!

The 3D Chameleon has a pretty neat feature where it uses the print head to hit a switch on the X axis in the right sequence to switch filaments. Maybe you could do something like that with this quad gantry to switch from using the front print heads to the back.
Just thinking out loud..

@oliof The Jubilee looks like the best option for me, hopefully they have an active support group. I already have a corexy machine I may be able to adapt! Thank you!

@oliof
what other options are there for 4 color printing?
I'd rather have direct drive hotends (no bowden tubes).
I've dabbled with Kraken and 3D chameleon, but I think 4 separate print heads ready to print are the way to go.
Note: do not search for 'hash' on CGTrader.. !

@oliof
awesome, I will check that out!
Thanks!
Edit: That looks very cool, for sure.
I think two gantries would work better though.
One could completely move up Z and be out of the way while the other is being used to print, then vice-versa. With the hash style, all the print heads are at the same height, yes?

I see all the new IDEX printers out there.
Would it be possible to build one with TWO gantry's with two print heads on each? Independent Quad Extruder?

Lord have mercy I am embarrassed to say the problem was in my config.g file. I think I copy/pasted someone else's BLTouch settings and didn't update them for my own printer. It is working better now! Using this guide to set it up:
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Test_and_calibrate_the_Z_probe

@rjenkinsgb
Thanks.
Does the probe have to be pressed in that far to send the signal? I assumed it would sense as soon as it touched something (IMMEDIATELY), not several mms of probe movement..

undefined

Is there a way to adjust the BLTouch sensitivity?
When I home Z it pushes it so much that my nozzles hit the bed.

T3P3Tony mentions it here:

@phaedrux
Wow, I didn't even know there were different kinds.
I guess just a simple 'filament hasn't broken' type.
I was reading that you can't connect a filament sensor to the Duex5, you have to move your X and Y endstops over to it and use those for the other filament sensors.. correct?

undefined

I need to add 4 filament sensors to my Duet 2/Duex5 setup.
Are there some that work better with Duet than others?
Are the cheapies worth dealing with?
https://www.amazon.com/BIQU-Filament-Detection-Accessories-Extruder/dp/B08QJDSZCL?th=1
I just want something simple that works so I can get to printing.
Thanks!

@phaedrux
Can you try the other drivers on the Duex? Change the M584 to match the drivers being used. Is it all Duex drivers or just 8 and 9?

How do I do that? I thought I was supposed to be using drive5 and drive6, no idea why it is on 8 and 9. Not sure if that will make a difference.

Wait- I see what you are saying. In config.g.. I changed it to 5 and 6, will run tests.. Thank you

How do you have the power and ground for the Duex connected?

The same as in the picture of the link you sent, 14G jumper wires from the power in block of the Duet to the power in block of the Duex (checked for polarity)

I purchased the Duex5 from Filastruder on April 1st of this year (no foolin'!)

I notice on the bottom of the Duet2wifi the pinouts for motors are 1B1A2A2B, but the pinouts on the bottom of the duex5 are A+A-B+B-.. Two different pinouts?

undefined

I have two extra extruder motors on a Duex5 on drive 5 and 6.
When I try to run the test to see if they are working from this link:
https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Test_axes_or_motors_individually
by using this code

M563 P2 D2
T2
G1 E10 F60

or

M563 P3 D3
T3
G1 E10 F60

I always get this error:

Warning: motor phase A may be disconnected reported by driver(s)8
or
Warning: motor phase B may be disconnected reported by driver(s)9

and nothing happens.

If I plug the same extruder motor back into E0 on the Duet2wifi and run the same test, it extrudes and tests properly.

Are the pinouts the same for each board?

undefined

@cthulhulabs
woah, that is definitely heavy duty..!
I can crimp the 4 pin that goes to the Duet board, what about the 6 pin that goes into the stepper motor..?

undefined

Does anyone have a source for heavy duty stepper motor wires, like 20AWG? Most I find are 22AWG

undefined

@droftarts
That makes sense, thank you!

undefined

Do you have to manually update config.g to add another extruder and hot end heater?
I followed the directions here but nothing changed:
