Well I didn’t find any parts at all. So I took the aluminum idler wheel to a machine shop and had a stainless steel washer countersunk into the back side of the part. Works much better now. That’s interesting. I didn’t know the pro had a Bowden style. I have been working with a lot of printers late…

Hello Has anyone come across parts for XYZ printers? I need to replace the idler wheel in my printer and do not want to spend the money to change out the entire hotend. I’m rather happy with the XYZ design except the aluminum idler wheel. Thanks -Alex

For me, elmers washable glue and lower your layer height for larger footprint items. The smaller the layer height, the less warping will occur (or how much).

Sweet! I’ll check it out. Thanks!

Yea that’s what I thought. Bummer. Do you have any links on the information you listed for the pi mod? And do you have any additional info on changing out the hot end to the V6? Thanks -Alex

There are plastic primers. See my hub. I’ve had a large piece airbrushed and it came out great.

Hello XYZ owners. I’ve been thinking of doing the Repetier flash on my XYZ DaVinci Duo. But for those that have it, I have some questions. With Repetier flashed, is the printer able to be a stand alone printer like it was with XYZWare? With XYZWare I upload the sliced file and then disconnect my com…

If I recall, I want to say there is some sort of reset on the backside. But not sure. Unplug it from the wall too. But yes the cartridges do have poor contact here and there. A little contact grease helps. I have one I leave in there as a dummy and feed open source filament from the side. If you tri…

Yea as mentioned these are spring loaded. Maybe the spring just happens to be a higher k value than mine? Never had that issue of chewing up the filament with the da vinci printer. With Airwolf I had an issue with the extruder being too cold or the federate was too fast for the nozzle size. Are you …

I didn’t think about the Jrs. Should have pre-faced with that. If they have Bowden extruder set ups then they are different from the original da vincis. With the standard da vinci printers you get a rotational moment acting perpendicular to the idler wheel axis. Poor design as it has resulted in a g…

Hello XYZ owners. I ran into an issue lately and it took me a little bit to figure this out. There is no help online so I thought I’d pass some of it along here. I was getting an error with the printer reporting there was a filament jam when there really wasn’t. It would happen randomly and with an…

Yes what the other guy said. It’s a contact switch basically. When the probe tip touches the plate it completes the circuit like a switch and that tells the cpu to count the steps from there to the sensor limit on the z axis. Clean the tip well and clean the three contact strips on the bed corners.
