I’m also planning to install Nudge on my Tridex. Is my assumption correct that the same nozzles should be used? I still have an issue where the nozzles need to be really clean for this calibration. Otherwise, the measurement can't be accurate. What level of accuracy can I expect? In the video, it looks like it's not entirely precise. It seems to me that calibration using a camera is more accurate. What’s your opinion on that? Thanks for your work.
@@Petricius I believe as long as the nozzle tip is the same then they would be ok to use with nudge. At the end of the video I adjusted the X offset by 0.1mm to bring the offsets in line. I just posted a picture of the T1 nozzle after the print and it needs more cleaning. Nudge can be very accurate, it just requires a clean nozzle. A camera can be accurate, but it requires manual adjustment or a very clean nozzle. Either way, it looks like my next steps for automatic nozzle alignment are going to be installing a scrubber for the nozzles.
@@rembrantsworkshopI agree here, but at least with an optical solution you can see whether the nozzles are clean and verify alignment without having to print something and then iteratively adjust. Being able to see exactly what's happening can be helpful at times.
@emberprototypes Oh I fully agree. I have been doing visual verification for a while with nudge and my camera. If I understood how to process images I could take a snapshot and compare them to adjust offsets.
This build is looking amazing!
Riveting!

@ I'm hoping to work on a v2 CXC in the future where you can do XY and Z either manually, or fully automated. So hard to find the time though 😭
