I’m literally about to head to 333D in an hour or two, do you want to PM me your number Andrew and I’ll get someone to give you a ring? They are difficult to catch on the phone as the team is only tiny, if they’re working on the printers you will quite often not get through with a phone call as ther…

There’s 333d in Melbourne. They have a SLM printer primarily for titanium parts (and then, primarily for medical implants). You could always give them a shot! Ask for Dejan (Dean) if you can, really smart bloke and knows a lot about SLM printing.

Cost is based on a few factors, mostly time and filament usage. Some jobs use only 250g and take 30+ hours at very fine settings, we once printed a 11kg part for a client using 2.4mm nozzle in around 12 hours so we do have to quote fairly on a job-by-job basis. While it is an industrial printer our …

Hi Andrew, Up to 1000x540x520 or 800x400x325 available through my company 333D (333d.com.au) We are also building a 540x540x1400 build volume printer but it is not quite finished yet. We are a custom build-volume manufacturer of large 3d printers. Have gone down to .4 nozzle @.05mm layers with excel…

HIPS (High Impact Polystyrene) is probably a good choice here, similar temperature for extrusion as ABS, but VERY resilient and good for ‘snap fit’ parts. PC/ABS is exactly what the Up! (Afinia, if you’re from the states) printer uses as its “ABS” filament. (Yes, I was with a company who got some U…

Good luck! Its easiest to spot when moving slowly, watch the belt just as it comes off/on the pulley, it should be pretty much dead-straight and not jumping up and down (even a little)… Look at the top and bottom of every x/y pulley and watch it in both directions… It usually only happens in 1 direc…

Another cause can be the belts “riding” over the pulley flanges… Try running a simple box large enough to test the axes for 100mm length or so - watch EACH of the pulleys a few times back and forth. If the pulleys are not aligned from one end to the other the belt can ride up on the flange and with…

Oh. you can add those M Codes to your G Code file (toward the top) OR if your host software allows sending of manual commands you can send it through the terminal of your host software (Repetier and Printrun at least allow it)

Hey mate, You’re printing this with the text facing forward / backward on the Y axis of a mendel-style “moving bed” machine, is this correct? What I see there is vibration. Think about your machine not as an “X/Y axis machine” but as having a seperate X axis and a seperate Y axis: The Y axis goes…
