@@flexplexico480 But also there are many thermistor types. As editing Prusa Mini firmware is not easy, esp. as Prusa uses "custom type" for the thermistor, you might have to try a lot of thermistors to get one with the right temperature/resistance curve - or measure the new thermistor and make your own custom temperature and put it into the firmware. Even PID-tuning is a problem with the mini - as it does not store in EEPROM. Tinkering on a Mini is much more "hardcore" than on other printers. Actually buing replacement part from Prusa is the simpliest way (6 bucks + shipping + tax) - but with Prusa being in Europe and Joel in the US, its a way not fast (esp. around x-mas) and not cheap in shipping. Also Joel might simply want to wait ordering the replacement thermistor until the new SuperPinda is available again to spare costs on shipping. So resourcing the correct thermistor from a mk2 is not a bad idea if he does need the mk2 for some time. He might even use an other thermistor type on the mk2, as the firmware of the mk2 is much more easy to change than on the Mini (and as you have to make the changes again after every firmwareupdate, the Mini with its often updated firmware is not ideal for modifications). Actually I have multiple Mini´s (one original, some clones) and changed feeders (diferent types with different eSteps), some hotends with silicone socks, some without, diferent part cooling mods and different heatbreaks. I made different custom firmware for them all, to set correct eSteps and PID on them, but they all got original Prusa thermistors - making custom temperature tables for the printers is to much efford in my opinion. But as I live in Europe, getting original Prusa parts is much more easy than in US.

Just bought myself a Creality CR10S Pro V2 because all i see on youtube is the most smoothest and flawlesly unboxing and imediately perfect working 3D printer without any problems that makes the most reliable and perfect prints you can imagine. I want to install the printer so perfect, read the manual before from A to Z and backwards so that i'm not going to make any mistakes, then looked for another dozen unboxing and installing tips on KZbin and finally after 2 days i managed to install my printer without a problem in no time. But then.................I turned it on and................... you guess; ...... trouble started; The printer went down on the bed and made a really ignorant noise like metall that is bending ..... and it did bent (or is it benD??). The Nozzle was in the middle of the bed and was going down while the BLTouch Bed Leveling Probe was hitting the bed first, 2 times to be exactly, and then get up again before it came down without anything in the world could stop it. It really hit my Bed very hard and before i knew what was going on and powered off the machine, there was alot of damage. I have tried to recover the damage and went on, with the believe it was my own fault because i was so stupid to trust something to work right out of the box. But whatever i tried and how much video's i watched before making another attempt; the damage is getting worse and worse. BTW, after leveling it always says that Z=29,9. But the nozzle is only about 15 away from the bed. So now i have a completely brand new CR10S Pro V2 that is not working (and the bed is damaged, without warranty as i understood).. It really drives me crazy and i'm desperately in need of help. Is there anybody, preferebly in the Netherlands, that can help me please????? Thanks in advance, Gerard
@Astinsan3 жыл бұрын
It’s just foil tape to direct the radiant heat to thermistor and also saturate both sides of the resistor. Thermistors are a cheap item. More heat equals more resistance. It really doesn’t see heat or sense it. The firmware looks fir the preprogrammed resistance that equates to a temperature. A inferred sensor would be way more accurate and honestly not much more in price.the sensor would not have to move and could be mounted anywhere with a clear view of the heat bed. It would also allow you to have multiple zones to sense making it possible for dynamic heat in the bed. That way you don’t have to cook plastic that isn’t as much mass.

To those suggesting buying the replacement: That's a good point, especially since the wires are quite thin. However, shipping from central Europe or even from resellers in North America is going to be slower than extracting the thermistor from an idle Mk2. Regarding the heated bed wiring, it's probably good enough, and if you're concerned about continuity there are probably products that can help with conduction. Other than that, well, screw connections are an electrical standard...

Dragchains are the solution, they are a pain to print (and/or expensive to buy). If installed properly, they reduce the stress on wires massively.

Why didn´t you check first if the cable is broken directly near the thermistor (where it is transparent) or on the long cable part?

So my first try would be to remove thermistor, cut the longer cable part and solder a new one on. If the temperature reading is correct than, problem is solved. Only if not, I would change the whole thermistor including cable.

@@3DPrintingNerd The thermistor is already soldered. The very thin transparent cables to the thermistor are soldered to the white cable, the soldering part is covered by the shrinking sleeve. So if the white cable has a break, soldering a new cable is quite easy - cut away the shrinking sleve and use the original soldering connection, as there is everythink already tinnend. But od course, if you want to upgrade the mk2 anyway - for example with the 12V mk2.5 bed - taking that is totaly o.k. But in my experience disassembling a maschine for future upgrades often is not a good idea. Often other projects come between and all the time the printer is out of order. Much more better is to disassamble only after all new parts arived and you have time to install them instantly. I made the mistake of disassemble to long before having the new parts and the time to do the upgrades much too often (about 14 printers are in "experimantal/"will do tomorrow" status...)

How to install? I mean, I double click the installer file and it installs. Are you having a specific issue?

This is why proper industrial sensors should be used, not cheap and fragile thermistors. Come on!

Thermistors and industrial sensors aren't in my wheelhouse, so I don't know if they would work? Would they on this machien?

I was using a new camera and adjusting to it. Moving around using an autofocus I’m not familiar with and trying to see a 3” screen while holding the camera pretty far away from my face creates that. I was traveling and didn’t have my regular 7” monitor attached to check focus on. I’m getting much better with the cameras focus system now though. 👍🏻

Great video. For next time, there are split sleeving install tools that make inserting the wire an easy job. I could not see exactly what type of sleeving it was but here is an example that shows how they work. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sHrHi3-FfrinmpI

Hey wtf that thermistors cost like $0.5 whay would you want to risk destroying much better printer, than you are fixing when you can just buy it
@3DPrintingNerd3 жыл бұрын
I talked about converting this to a Bear down the line, and I needed the MINI to be printing right now. I figure I can fix the thermistor on the mk2 once it's rebuilt and better.
@chrisholmstrom6243 жыл бұрын
You still might have an issue Joel. I think the thermistor for the Mini is 24v and the MK2 is 12v
@theotinjum2253 жыл бұрын
No, the thermistor is the same for for both the Mini and MK2
@oleurgast7303 жыл бұрын
Thermistors are resistors. They are used in a voltage divider and connected to an analoge input of the CPU, so they are on logic voltage, not on heater/stepper voltage. mk2 is 5V (8bit), mk3 is 3.3V (32bit board). But the different voltage does not matter at all, as its the same thermistor type and the analog input compares the voltage from the devider to the table in the firmware. The analog input of the CPU senses f.e. from 0 to 1023 with 0 means ground and 1023 means logical voltage. With the NTC in a voltage devider having f.e. 50k on a certain temperature connected to logical voltage and the fixed resitor to ground with 100°C you would get 100/150*1023 as value - no matter what the logical voltage is. So you only have to know what value equals wich temperature; the absolute voltage does not matter at all (unless you acidently connect it to heater voltage and fry the CPU).

I printed for like 5 days straight after filming this on that printer and it worked perfectly!

I don't *think* those voltage numbers apply to the resistors? oh wait there is a thread here - Ole wrote some good stuff.
