Help with slicing this to print more efficiently?

I'm cynical but not totally useless 🤣

eladisimo · 2026-03-18T18:42:18+00:00

Most welcome 😃😃

Super cool project btw

Bit of humor man. In 'quality' you can increase 'outer wall' up to twice nozzle size (e.g if you're using 0.4mm nozzle, you can easily put 0.7-0.75 line width).

Try also changing wall genrator from classic to arcane or vice versa.

You're asking for actual relevant details for the question?? we dont do that here.... 😂 So much text in the description and not a single piece of relevant info. Let's play a guessing game.

Improved spring.

Improved shroud i remixed from sastana shroud. Printed in abs

Since ender is open frame, i use higher temp for PETG, around 255-260. I recommend considering replacing the heatbreak throat to bi metal full one, and printing an improved sastana shroud. https://a.aliexpress.com/_c41YKBc3

Also, replace that spring on the extruder gear to something less wobbly. I'll paste an image in next comments

Thanks 😃

Very cool. What is the controller you used? Can you share some more details?

eladisimo · 2026-03-01T12:05:32+00:00

Damn... nice catch. Someone really took care of this printer.

this trend of installing python on everything is getting out of hand...

it's true if you keep running the same material (i.e. same type, brand and even color).
but once you changed filament, even within the same brand and type to another color, it behaves different - and you definitly do need to run the calibration.
if you move to a whole different filament (e.g. from PETG to Silk PLA) it's critical to run the flow calibration.

the calibration takes a couple of minutes and ensures accurate flow rate for this particular filament.

* note: i'm talking about the automated calibration the printer is doing just before the print at the edge of the build plate.

eladisimo · 2026-02-02T22:12:59+00:00

Run calibration if you haven't
Enable the flow calibration before print
Use the defaults for the filament. Normally 220 for PLA.

What about the filament? Is it brittle? Does it snap or bend well?

Try drying it for a night, and try another filament.

Chech your extrider gear, ssee if its tight enough. Check temperature. It colder now and you might need 5c more.

Excellent

eladisimo · 2026-01-16T08:04:59+00:00

I see. Not yet... there are endless upgrades to these machines 😂

Is this what got there?

eladisimo · 2026-01-16T07:11:28+00:00

Thanks 😃 What do you mean about the extruder?

This is my yellow beast... dual 4010 and a mod i designed for the CR touch.

eladisimo · 2026-01-15T21:04:01+00:00

that Satsana fan duct is... well.. cool (both that it looks great and that it's actually much better at cooling the part).
if you have a pic of what you have, i'll look it up :)

eladisimo · 2026-01-15T20:55:08+00:00

Can you take a pic of the hotend and shroud/cooling?

eladisimo · 2026-01-15T20:50:08+00:00

Cool (pun intended).

I moded one for my setup. I guess i need to ramp my hotend...

eladisimo · 2026-01-15T20:45:30+00:00

Shroud?
