    In Cura, biggest gains for the lazy: (assuming your printer is already calibrated)
    - increase inner wall, infill, skirt/brim and travel speed (don't increase Outer Wall speed).
    - remove infill if the part supports it (more walls w/o infill is faster than less walls w infill),
    - increase wall width to achieve same total thickness with less walls.
    - enable _Filter Out Tiny Gaps,_ (assuming the model is watertight)
    - set _Fill Gaps Between Walls_ to _Nowhere_
    - turn on/off _Use Adaptive Layers_ as it sometimes saves time.

    • @itzrobertho

      Agreed! Also disable infill before walls that way your infill lines won’t show through the walls when you’re printing 2 of them at 0.6mm line width.

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    00:00 🚀 *To 3D print faster, start by identifying and managing limitations.*
    01:45 🌊 *Hot end flow rate is a crucial limitation to understand when printing faster. Test your maximum volumetric flow rate to determine the fastest speeds you can use.*
    04:04 🐢 *Adjust your slicer settings for maximum volumetric speed based on your hot end's capabilities to prevent extrusion issues.*
    06:41 🌡️ *Increasing hot end temperature can improve flow rate, but it may lead to other printing issues, so find a compromise.*
    08:32 🏎️ *Consider acceleration settings as they impact print time and quality; increasing acceleration can lead to faster prints but may require adjustments.*
    10:54 🛠️ *Mechanical artifacts like ringing and layer shifts can affect print quality when printing fast. Experiment with acceleration settings and input shaping to find the right balance.*
    12:06 ❄️ *Adequate part cooling is crucial for maintaining surface quality when printing fast; upgrading your part cooling system can improve results.*
    12:34 🔧 *Combine strategies like adjusting feed rates for internal infill and increasing travel feed rates and acceleration to optimize printing speed while maintaining quality.*

  • @daliasprints9798
    @daliasprints9798 2 года назад +1

    On a printer without some seriously upgraded cooling, your flow test piece is likely to hit cooling failures before extrusion rate limits. You can mitigate this by blowing a desk fan at the printer but then you need to make sure your hotend is sufficiently insulated or you might just strip away so much heat from the block that the flow drops.

  • @martinpirringer8055
    @martinpirringer8055 2 года назад +1

    Great Video - Only thing missing IMO - especially if you go really fast - is layer adhesion. Expecially on bigger parts where the previous layer had plenty of time to cool down. The next layer needs to bond with the previous one. So If you lay down a molten noodle too fast the layer adhesion will suffer. Not critical for a "look at" model like a figurine but it can make a difference on a mechanical part. Also just checking the weight of the extruded filament IMO is not enough as at high speeds you still might get the same weight of filament but if you look at it the extruded material is shorter and thicker. This happens when the pressure inside the hotend gets too big and it compresses the molten plastic too much and then when it comes out of the nozzle it expands

    • @daliasprints9798
      @daliasprints9798 2 года назад

      If you get layer adhesion problems when the previous layer has cooled all the way, your nozzle temperature likely isn't high enough or you're underextruding from going too fast. I used to think "printing on a cooled layer" was my problem for petg, and turned fan down or even off for it, but got bad surface quality and overhangs from doing so. Just cranking the nozzle temp up allowed me to print petg with full cooling (and I have some rather extreme cooling).

    Another Important setting for maintaining quality when printing fast seens to be Jerk, corners tend do become bulges when it’s too low, even when acceleration is correct, because the speed is not translated into corner turning velocity and we have a slight stop before starting to accelerate again

  • @squidcaps4308
    @squidcaps4308 2 года назад

    I noticed that when you start to reach the limits on your hotend, the filament it pushes out becomes thicker than the nozzle size. Increasing temperature or slowing the speed will fix that. The plastic is not coming out at same temperature and speed, some of it slows down and this allows the extruded line to become thicker. Skipping is related to the wheel grip, not just hotend. I use both now, just see when the line starts to look different and that is your maximum, at those temperature. The sensor does not measure nozzle temps but block temps, it can be seriously lower inside the nozzle at high speeds. Of course, without adjusting the pressure that the extruder gears have is a way to get faster extrusion so the free air print test still applies to the current state of the machine. But it might not be just hotend that is starting to lag behind, it can be that the extruder has too weak grip.

    i have been printing 95A TPU with a 1.2mm volcano nozzle at 0.6mm layer heights.
    i have theorized that i am encountering 3 types of flow rates.
    the flow rates are:
    The Nozzle
    The extruder
    the material.
    In this case i found that my nozzle and my extruder could handle the high flow rates but i suspect the material cant handle the high flow.
    So, by using the speeds recommended by the manufacturer i was able to determine a flow rate that is within the calculations and the prints are far superior.... althougg much slower..

    at 2:54 the chart shows underextrusion at around 4mm3/s. But in your test, you were able to get ~20mm3/s. I assume 1) you have an upgraded hot end, or 2) You are willing to tolerate an amount of underextrusion so long as the part holds together. This would mean dimensional accuracy and structural integrity would be sacrificed. Am I correct?

    This is a nice video and the calibration website is very handy. There is still one thing that I am confused about. I can see that my firmware has limits on X and Y motion speeds. And I can see that the calibration site generates G-code with lines like "M220 S100 ; custom speed A - 20 mm/sec". My understanding is that M220 is sets a relative percentage. How does it know that 100% of /something/ is 20 mm/sec? What is that something, where can I find it, etc?

  • @TheSuburban15

  • @TheAndyroo770
    @TheAndyroo770 2 года назад

    Some good tips and I will check out your calibration website. Have you done any testing on ringing on square/straight edges prints by comparing rotating 45° on the bed so no straight edge perimeter uses just X or y axis to print but both? Also, I've been doing some experiments with prusaslicer fuzzy skin - try depth 0.06mm, length 0.1mm - it gives a cool, subtle texture and makes parts stiffer in my opinion as the internal perimeter crosses over the deviations of the outer perimeter forming a better bond. I have tested with functional parts with a 0.3mm tolerance and they did not fuse together.
