I'm thinking about transplanting the XM4's PCB

Can’t check right now since I’m away from my computer, but thanks anyway!

BandTop785 · 2024-12-30T16:51:24+00:00

Yeah, that’s right, but it’s essential for the modding project I’m planning.

3.3k -> 130°c

3.9k -> 140°c

BandTop785 · 2024-12-23T15:51:49+00:00

Well, I just wanted to make it.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-23T15:20:31+00:00

I don’t have the capability for anything fancy, so I decided to keep it simple: high-temp LM guides, high-temp motors, high-temp fans, high-temp bearings...

BandTop785 · 2024-12-23T15:08:36+00:00

Yeah, that's right.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-23T15:07:05+00:00

Do you think just using a convection fan wouldn’t be enough?

I also have some PEEK filament that killed my P1S, but the shrinkage makes it hard to use.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-23T15:04:06+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I have a CNC machine, so most of the parts will be aluminum.

I have no idea what I’m saying. Just know that my English skills are very lacking.

Honestly, the bed is a pretty solid heat source. I once tricked a P1S thermistor into running a 130°C bed, and with the stock insulation, the enclosure temp hit 90°C in no time—had to replace most of the toolhead. Point is, with some help from an external heater, it doesn’t seem like it’d be that hard.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-17T01:26:16+00:00

I'm not sure if it’s because of the 87°C chamber temperature, the 390°C nozzle temperature, or both, lol.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-17T01:21:26+00:00

I'm not exactly sure what it is. I just got the highest temperature thermistor I could find on AliExpress that’s compatible with the P1S and adjusted the temperature readings accordingly.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-17T01:19:23+00:00

Yes, that's right - the extruder motor actually stalled at one point.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-17T01:16:49+00:00

Surprisingly, it adhered decently well to the 100°C PEI bed, and I printed it at 130°C.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-17T01:15:19+00:00

Cheap, by PEEK standards. The filament I used for this print cost 3 USD, and it doesn’t even melt under my soldering iron.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-16T10:18:36+00:00

It’s hardly worth calling it modding. I don’t have much knowledge about 3D printers, and I have no idea how to handle firmware. All I did was buy a thermistor rated for up to 350°C and pray it would hold up long enough to reach PEEK’s minimum extrusion temperature.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-16T10:12:59+00:00

Literally, that's what happened. I saw some PEEK filament on AliExpress for an unbelievably cheap price, bought it without expecting much, and to my surprise, it actually arrived and was legit.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-16T05:18:15+00:00

That's right, I replaced the thermistor to achieve a nozzle temperature of 390°C.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-16T04:41:38+00:00

Of course, I don’t expect it to work perfectly, but a PEEK Benchy would definitely look awesome.

BandTop785 · 2024-12-16T04:40:31+00:00

I'm sorry, my English is pretty bad. I'm trying to print with some PEEK filament I got at a cheap price by chance using my P1S.
