A few folks have pointed out that the Klipper "TUNING_TOWER" function could be used to automate the file here. Excellent point that I forgot, check out the Klipper Documentation for more: www.klipper3d.org/G-Codes.html#tuning_tower For this purpose I feel the G-Code I generated still works better as it was a very easy file to just Click "Reprint" to continue using for testing. Great for shutting down, restarting, updating, and anything I needed to do while filming this video. But Tuning_Tower would be faster for 1 or 2 tests.

The real world difference of thermal conductivity between the two materials isn't as drastic as the numbers would suggest. I have plenty of Copper printer nozzles, they don't flow better than brass ones on average, just can handle higher temperatures. Couple that with the fact that the copper is in the middle of brass, so the heat would have to transfer through the brass to the copper. I doubt it is done for any reason other than convenience of the production method.

Experimented myself with the clone CHT nozzles. I've compared them to a normal V6 clone. I'm using the 0.6mm variants and the CHT's are the Ali type with the copper slug in the middle. Unmodded the clone CHT was indeed slightly underperforming compared to the V6 clone. did the same mod, and after that, still no real improvement. So yes, I could have known after watching this video 😎. I will be center boring one CHT to do a final test (I have a lathe), but I'm pretty sure I will be going for the following setup; Standard V6 heater block with a clone volcano nozzle, with a extra M6 nut on it (CNC-kitchen showed that in one of his videos). It will perform almost as good as a volcano nozzle in a volcano heater block. Plus side to stay with the standard heater block is, that I san simply switch out my 0.6mm volcano nozzle with a standard 0.4mm nozzle if I want to without having to remove the heater block and its accessories.. Down side is that I have to change the heigth of my 3D-touch to be able to use ABL... 🤔

You're getting crazy good results for the V6 nozzle there, i don't have experince with that brand of ASA but my CHT nozzle hits 40mm3/s in esun abs+ and sunlu and polymaker abs and i can only get 17mm3/s out of a v6 I can do 27mm3/s in anycubic PLA and i can only get 14mm3/s out of the same anycubic PLA in my v6, revo and copperhead, and 13mm3 out of a creality lined hotend. However, I've got the stepper motor current set fairly gentle and so it skips rther than grinds filamant or blows the ptfe tube up into a balloon if somehting goes wrong. I'd want to play with a load cell before being comfortable cranking up the current, and I'm limiting my real world print speed by the amount of die shrink i'm getting. This is worst with PET-G and I'm using this kind of test tower mostly to identify where die shrink is problematic. There's often a change in sheen visible on this kind of test tower that's handy for setting external perimeter speed.
@MandicReally2 жыл бұрын
That Polymaker ASA likes to flow. My default profile for it has the Extrusion Multiplier down around .93 to prevent over-extrusion. That said, the test is flawed in that the point of failure and the point of under-extrusion are likely two different things. So it’s likely I’d consider it a failure at a lower value than these tests indicate.
@rowlandstraylight2 жыл бұрын
@@MandicReally yeah, I think I linked a test that makes blobs at different flow rates you can weigh elsewhere. I use a very similar tower and look at when they start to twist out of shape as one limit, and use whichever is lower. PET-G gives me the biggest difference and in real world prints I'm dropping the speeds even lower than the towers suggest because of die shrink. Good PLA just works, but if imt chasing flow rate for fast prints I'm always at or near the top of the recommended temperature range. If you're chasing quality then printing cooler might help with some features, but be aware that calibration prints are often layer time limited and give misleading results.

I am presently getting exactly the same kind of results with a cloned CHT with the copper slug. Sharpening that big flat surface in the middle makes a big difference. I am *also* finding that the cloned CHT has more back pressure than a traditional nozzle at lower extrusion speeds even when modded to sharpen the hole edges. It only begins to perform better than the traditional nozzle at high flow rates. You need an extruder with a good grip to get past this limitation.

The goals of these is to increase flow rate of your 3D Printer hot end. You "need" one when you are running into flowrate limitations. Usually due to using larger nozzle diameters and/or higher speeds printing. I found that a standard E3D V6 nozzle in that budget hotend is good up to 125mm/s print speed (maybe more), so it isn't a very common need.

In Prusaslicer, you need to slice the file once, then go to the layer, you want to add the change, click the plus icon on the slider and add the desired change in speed, temp.. whatever... It is kind of what you did manually in the code file, because you need to add the code as well. But: you have a visual help to find the right layer to do the change in.

You can quickly measure for a drop in wall thickness on a test print like that by using a dial indicator over a small-radius (I'd recommend something BELOW a 1/8"/3.2mm radius/ 1/4"/6.4mm diameter) base (i.e. a small ball, or piece of round-bar mounter horizontally). Align & adjust the dial indicator so it shows "0" when it is just touching the base, then you can run the test piece over the base & the dial indicator will show you the exact wall-thickness of each layer as it squeezes between the indicator & base. I know this sounds a but complicated, but once you have the dial indicator, you could easily 3d print a stand for it & a base to glue a BB on top of; then spend 3 minutes assembling & then measure test prints at somewhere around 300 layers per minute (depending, of course, on exactly how OCD you want to be about watching the needle move for each individual layer)

For an easier an more precise way to test hotend flow rate (as you asked for at the end), check out Stefans (CNCKitchen) recentish video on the topic. The general idea is to, instead of printing an actual part, extrude a known quantity of filament at different speeds/flow-rates (just into a blob) and check with a scale whether the requested amount of filament was extruded or underextrusion happened. Much faster _and_ more precise.

Thus why I was saying that the un-modified Knock-off nozzle performed better there. The filament was already melted by the time it reached the nozzle so the "wall of brass" in the knock-off nozzle didn't effect the already molten plastic. I'm running some testing on an entirely Stock Ender 3 right now. The crappy plastic extruder with straight cut single extruder gear is slipping when trying to push the flow higher. These more advanced extruder assemblies all work around pushing more filament with less effort. Either through Gear Reductions or enlarged drive gears (or both). I've not directly tested it but have seen others test and show that just different extruder drives can cause flowrate changes. Not massive ones, not something I'd go changing just based around, but measurable differences. It is a bit hard to articulate why I feel this is the case, but basically it comes down to mechanical advantage pushing non-molten filament into the melt zone. Stronger extruder drives can overcome resistance of filament that isn't melting rapidly enough better than more "basic" ones. Obviously you reach the limit of the hotends ability to melt filament at some point, but combined with all the variables it can change the results of what that limit is. It is kind of like the extruding in thin air test. When all the variables are combined, things will change versus just testing one single component. Which is why tests like this are hard for some folks to relate to. "Well on my machine that hotend flowed way less!", yea because your variables are different.

What’s the temperature when printing?
@MandicReally2 жыл бұрын
I ran these tests at 250C (as is the downloadable G-code). I usually print this material more like 235-245C so I bumped just a bit to give a better chance of flow.

Simple version: set it to run at some speed. Then sit and watch it and bump the speed up with the klipper pad until it pukes. Then turn it back to where it corrects and runs. The Klipper pad will tell speed real time.

As you are clearly following CNC Kitchen, why not use his method of testing flow by printing "blobs" of filament and weighing them?
@MandicReally2 жыл бұрын
Requires a good scale (bought one it sucked, didn’t have one to do this video). And I also prefer tests that return results while printing. Stefan’s test is excellent for detailed tests of limits and generating data but I always wonder about tests like that applied to real world work. Actually printing and object and running a test are often different. Granted his method would show the underextrusion I know I’m missing.

With Red Lizard hotend plated copper heatblock/nozzle I can do 450% ~ 18.23 mm^3/s... Maybe I should have done a PID tuning first!
@ameliabuns405811 ай бұрын
I'd just drill a 1.5mm-1.7mm step into the entire thing at the top tbh to fix it. that way it almost acts the way the dragon high flow did! but I have another variant of this clone (a hardened one with a brass insert in the hole it has) and it works great! I love it. still not enough for 400mm/s on my poor Prusa mk3s (yes...) so I had to get a volcano and then do a volcano CHT clone! that one can do almost 25-30? I'm confused to. my v6 with a v6 nozzle could only do 12 at best. with the clone CHT mine did 18-20?

I am not convinced🤔 you say Original Bondtech performs better while CNCKitchen's measured results are opposite... even using longer heatblock area will help or even copper nuts... I don't think nozzles have too much quality impact or increase flow rate on prints but heatblock material,heating cartridge power,vibration and slicer settings are things we should look into more😉

23.77 cmm/s is way bewond V6 capability. I'd not get higher than 12 cmm/c. Probably you were able to print well up to 23.77 just because your extruders were powerful enough to press unheated meterial into the nozzle.
