  • As you try to print faster, a high static speed isn’t really the major factor on how fast a machine can print, it’s acceleration. Your actual speed is quite likely never being reached (especially on smaller parts) due to acceleration limits. Just want to clarify that. Fast moving delta machines are…

  • I just ran my big delta at 1000mm/s (using a smoothie board) doing a marvin in PLA in under 10 min, quality was rough but it was a really good speed test, I’m now going to up the acceleration further, here’s a link to the vid Cheers Jason

  • It highly depends on the nozzle size and plastic type I’m using 3000 mm/min (50mm/s) maximum when printing PLA using a 0.4mm nozzle @ 210C, beyond that it jams When using the 0.8mm nozzle I was able to go 4800mm/min (that’s 80mm/s) using PLA at the same temperature I have a prusa i3 rework

  • That’s pretty standard and good speed. Mine is about the same, and for Prusa you can go as high as 60.

  • Hi Salvador My melvin print in 25 minutes because my print speeds are lower (30mm / s) for a better definition. Also used the Cura for slicing, but in tests other slicers are short in printing time of issue

  • I have mine tuned in pretty darn well, the only thing I need to upgrade is adding acme rods to the z but they are difficult to find for a good price. I have been printing at anywhere between 75 to 90mm/s for the last couple of years, but I have recently taken it down to 50-60mm/s in order to increas…

  • 50 is a good speed. The fastest I dare to print without sacrificing quality too much is 90. Some printers can go up to 200. the reason our extruder hicks can be because -your stepper drivers don’t have enough volts (more means your motors will be stronger, but can overheat more quickly) -your hot…
