Que hacé loco? Todo bien?

Amazing!

If I use octoprint or mainsail for web interface could that be a big problem ?

Where did you set the inverse kinematics ? in the slicer or in the firmware (klipper) ?

What about slicers? How many of it supports this kinematic?

Amazing work! I would love to see a simple tube print with cross laminated layers to see if this technique can solve the z-axis strength issue.

two words. gimbled bed...

Turn this into a commercial product and you have your first customer here.. name your price. :) A consumer-grade 5-axis 3D printer would absolutely revolutionize the hobby.

I may be late to the party but what are the advantages of a 3d printer like this compare to your typical 3 axis 3d printer? mainly in what can this do that the other can't?

This mimics organic growth...like pumpkin stems. Amazing hardware!

This is entirely unnecessary, ... , so why do I want one SOOOO BAAADDD!

Measuring and setting Traori pivot point offsets for 5 axis compensation on siemens 840D was always challenging.

Now that FDM 3-axis printers are using some of the finest extrusion nozzles possible and printing in-place rotary hinges this is the sensible next step, to eliminate the need for supports and allow aligning the layers along the structure. With startup funding I have no doubt you could end up designing for your own company, all the patents have expired for 5-axis metal machining.

Aaaand in two meter tall blazing white letters: UNEXPECTED PROBLEMS CAME UP! You had me laughing for a couple of minutes -- That's my whole life story!!

Continous carbon fibre could be the killer app for this machine. Imagine perfectly wound carbon fiber shells straight out of the printer

God! It is great you were able to solve all the issues. Hope you're satisfied with the results. Keep us in the loop of your innovations brother. Loved this one. But, I'm not very well informed on why this arrangement is superior to the standard printers. I guess it'll take my mind some more time to make sense of the exponentially enhanced capabilities of this machine.

Why don't you move the print head instead of the bed? (I get the rotation of the bed, I'm asking about the translation movement).

Remarkable! Well done!

awesome

The A axis probably is gonna need calibration add a switch at angle height that way you are able to calculate or set the angle offset with the screw u probably want to change it to metal for moree accuracy.

You should try a print with extreme overhang

This is an amazing concept 😍 My only suggestion for future versions would be to move the a axis so it rotates closer to the centre line rather than on the long swing arms. Should help with the positional accuracy during rotating planes and more rigidity? More akin to most 5axis cnc mills.😊

Did you not just use code meant for CNC mill?

great job man! keep pushing! Congratulations!

Have you considered how a Ziess calibration cycle works.

oh u figured it out in this video. i found this issues when i used tb6600 on my printers with klipper , still works awesome.

is the stepper step_pulse_duration too low? maybe making the value more would help the layer shift, type your stepper driver and search google {my stepper driver name} step_pulse_duration . I had a similar issue, i think the microcontroller cannot handle so many peripherals at once and also try reducing the microsteps to something more reasonable that your stepper driver allows. I hope this helps.

for the rotation azis you want to use a slip ring. pair it with a bearing.

Amazing work!

Fast forward 20 years and every printer will be 5 axis built on this very project.

fantastic job, have you considered using existing tool path programs that already have multi-axial control? like mastercam or something?

huge

Certainly a fascinating machine; hopefully you're able to get the slicer things figured out and situated without too much more trouble 6.6

I can't wait to get my slicer to work on 5 axis, it will be so cool to watch a printer like this using it. As for a slicer I think Vslicing(the core algorithm behind my still in development slicer) is a perfect fit for this as it adapts the layer shape to the model's shape and thus can automatically slice complex models with minimal supports needed on an ender 3. I'm not just saying this because it's my algorithm but you sould check out devlog 1 of geekworks crystalite. It's a relatively short blogpost on the basics of how VSlicing works, may be useful for this project.

I did not know about your channel until today and I thought about this problem in the past and I have been busy on other things but I took inspirations from CNC machine center where the head moved around and went huh why don't we do that with 3d printer and it comes with some issues of course but I use to work on hydraulics going all the way up 4000 psi at 100 gpm and we used a positive displacement screw pump and I thought about how we could use that same tech to move it all around you could print upside down if you really wanted to but the pump would just be the hot end you would still need a extruder. But it would work you would have to prime it and preheat and get the rest of the gunk out possible have to take it apart to clean it every once in a while but it’s there. The idea is for anyone and I believe it will work ultimately in the right hands with the right mind. I hope this finds someone else who has way more time then I do in the open source community you guys have been a huge help in problems or helping me fil in gaps of knowledge I have.

Can you describe, or show a shape that can be made on a 5A3DPrinter, that cant be made on a 3DPrinter? And please dont go into the weeds about a stronger parts, speed, supports etc I understand those benefits.... What SHAPE can be made on 5a that CANT be made on 3a?

This is soo good!! goodbye support materials lol

I searched the Internet for a "Slicer for a 5D printer" and literally immediately came across a mention of the Open5x project. They use Rhino3D/Grasshopper for slicing. I think it will be interesting for you to take a look at this project if you have not met it before.

The other thing to consider is thermal stability of your printer. any contraction or expansion of the frame would reek havoc with precision.

Glad I found your channel! Subscribed!

Everytime you say G-Code, it sounds like you are saying "Cheat Code" lol.

Holy crap, this is going to be the next big thing in 3D printing. Moving to 5 axis! This hurts my brain thinking of this, lol. But amazing work!!!!!

Amazing work! I don't think the general public will appreciate how incredibly tedious this type of work is.

so so cool!! Good job !!

Wow, just fantastic work.

You can change from absolute to relative position gcode in both Cura and ocraslicer

gosh this is amazing

Isn't the issue that these "professional printers" are backed by companies that have patents or have licensed patents from the patent owner, just as was the case with 3 axis 3D printers. The only reason we have (cheap) hobbyist grade 3D printers is because a few of those patterns had expired which opened up the market for anyone to build and sell 3D printers (of the 3 axis type at least) without paying hefty license fees to the patent holder(s).

Its crazy what some smart people can do with a bit of time, awesome video ceep the 5D printer vids up! Great Job!

cura does allow relative positioning. its also what is recommended to use nowdays. the duet docs have some informations about that if you lookup M82
