The advantage or CoreXY is not "because two motors are used to move the printhead in the XY plane", because cartesian does the same thing on diagonal movements while CoreXY only uses one motor for perfect diagonals. The real advantage is that the motors are both stationary, reducing the weight of the gantry especially in the Y direction.

@@TommyHoughton Actually "cartesian" is not automaticly a bedslinger. Also crossing rods (like used in the Ultimaker 2 and Crealitys CR200b) is a cartesian system. The K3 is a very fast and capable crossing "rod" system (crossing linear rails instead of rods). To be even more precise: "Cartesian" just means 3 axis perpendicular together. So strictly speaking a CoreXY also is cartesian - z-,a- and b are perpendicular together. Just g-code coordinates are 45° rotated to the x and y of the g-code coordinates. And even more more precise: Any printer with ABL is not cartesian, as z=0 depends on x/y coordinate - so you are not strictly in euclidic space (z =0 plane is bend...). "Cartesian" only applys in Euclidic space... (but this definitly over strictly following the definitions). However, there are real non-cartesian printers: Delte/Hanging printers and Polar Printers.

The weight of the extra crap cancels out savings by relocating motor doesn't it? The disadvantage of giant long belts is stretch and slop I still don't get how without linear encoders you keep accurate position? If HP made 3D printers they would be full of linear encoders. All crap inkjets use them to achieve such detailed fonts. So why not 3d printers? And don't say too accurate that isn't a thing.

@@remotepinecone On 2d inkjet printers the printhead is just moved left and right. Acceleration/decelleration just happens at the end of the movement. Linear encoders are used to determine the position at any time. As the printhead does a constant speed, it does not matter the encoder resolution can not be as high as the print resolution. The encoder does not recognice 1200 position per inch, even it this is the resolution you selected for the print. On a constant linear movement you can interpolate the position quite accurate. So the dots can be fired out exactly in the right moment. The printhead acts depending on the position. It is only moved in one axis - and every position without dots, the printhead just moves without fireing dots. It is dot-matrix. It is just moving left and right; only turning back at the end of a line. It decelerate after the last dot is fired in the line, and it has accelerated in the other direction before the first dot is printed. In simple: The dot shots the moment you are in ther right position. Your position decide to fire. So you can use simple DC-motors. This is totally different to vector printing. Here acceleration/decelleration happens while printing. The most important thing is to move the right way and stop and change direction fast and precise. Esp. stopping in an exact position is not exactly something you can do with an DC-Motor (there are some tricks). But for precise break you actually need an active break. For big CNC-Mills there are some heavy motors using this technic, and rotary encoders are used to control how much the motor had turned. A quite coslty techniqe. But here this are all rotary encoders, to controll the motor - not the printhead. You can measure and calibrate the kinematics. The biggest problem why linear encoders do not make sense on 3d-printers: The extruder reacts to slow. If the extruder feeds, there not instantly plastic comes out of the nozzle. And if the extruder stops and retracts, still this takes its time to the plastic stopping comming out of the nozzle. AKA "preasure advance". What´s the benifit knowing you are 0.1mm off then the extrusion started? you can not change it anymore. However, linear encoders would be quite nice for autocallibration. The tension of a belt effects the steps/mm you need for a distance. So move the printhead 20cm and check by the linear encoder the real distance archived. Recalculate the steps/mm. But as does not change to often, manual calibration prints are not a big deal - and extra linear encoders are just another part that might be damaged.

I don't think it's a Gates vs. knock-off issue. The pattern of damage where they failed tells me it's the wrong type of belt. It looks like steel backed PU belt, which is unsuitable for small radii, because THIS happens, nor is it intended to be run fast, it's intended as a precision belt. Normal 3D printer belt the cheapest kind is textile or glass fibre backed chloroprene, which for one takes the radius much easier and for other cannot just melt. So he went both too cheap and not cheap enough at the same time, actual sort-by-price garbage belt would have done much better.

I recommend using MGN9H linear rail on the X-axis and trying a 20x20 mm aluminum square tube with a wall thickness of about 2-3 mm for the gantry beam instead of a T-slot profile. Square tubes are lighter and more rigid than T-slot. And this print bed is a no go. At higher accelerations it starts flopping around, introducing a lot of ringing. You would need a bed with 3 support points, something like on creality k1, vzbot, ratrig etc. Replace Z axis, maybe even use 9mm gt2 belts on XY, and you'll get a really fast printer!

PS Reinforce the Z axis , for start replace springs with nuts for stiff mount or just tighten them as much as possible if you have resources replace rods with thicker ones (or with single mgn 15 /// mgn 20 rail) Replace the X axis 2020 profile to 1515 square tube -- less weight + mounts need redesign (bit on heavy side) , maybe try to mod them to something like in zerog mercury ) want more speed ? 48v is good option but try with 4 stepper motor on each corner not 2 for more torque (faster corner speed (or like in marlin ...jerk) and accel) :D pro tip -- - side panels to make it heavier will help with vibrations + make it stiffer (and some concrete under it so it wont move like crazy with faster speeds) , you can even use red plaster boards to do that (fireproof ones) or cement composites -- like cement composite board (mdf with cement) or just mdf --- (it dampens vibrations)

Good question, it’s not really in my expertise though so I can’t give the best answer. The main negative is the increased cost with the main positive being no more layer shifts with the steppers always returning to their correct position. I’m yet to test any as the main factor is paying a premium for benefits I’m unsure about. If I do and learn more in the future, I’ll make sure to share my findings. Cheers!

I highly recommend reinstalling your toolhead cooling fan but using these fans instead (honeybadger 5015 four pin I would link but the comments wont let me) , and you might want to give the hotend I made a shot (check your filtered comments for the link because I cant work it in here easily, I have been able to reach 77^3 pla 240c on my bambu p1s and that is only becuase it is being extruder capped.) and find a way to fasten the aux fans down to help prevent that wobble, and you might want to also want to reprint some of those structural parts in abs/asa.

it looks like you just need an actually cooling fan on your toolhead and you will be good to go. i reccomend a single 5015 fan setup (no aux fans) as thats worked pretty well for my machine in keeping up with high speeds. since my printer is cartiesian it cant go quite as fast as yours but i can do 17 minute speed benchies (while still following speed benchy rules) and have no cooling artifacts. also i loved the editing on this video keep up the great work.
@TommyHoughton
@TommyHoughton 5 ай бұрын
100%, I think CPAP is the only option for the speeds I want to achieve in the sequel. 5015's are super powerful for their cost and size though! I've never had any issues with them, ever. 17 minutes is really great! I've got a couple of bedslingers I'm trying to push as well. Cooling is terrible on them for now. The plan is to do a video building a custom hotend (I think the big one will be about 80mm total length? It's insane, I did a community post on it) and then a video on a carbon fiber Y axis overhaul, with 48v steppers just for fun. It'll be a crazy couple of videos. Not sure how I'll part cool at those speeds, but a 5015 or two won't hurt at all. Thanks for watching :D

Fysetc sells rails that are machined to remove some metal and weight but I haven't used them. I stick to Hiwin just because they have never failed me and aren't as expensive as people make out.
