Thank you for the feedback. Do you mean the probe method works or the markers fit on the SV06 as well? I would be surprised if the markers would fit since the SV06 uses different linear rods. UPDATE: I don't have an SV06, but checked the open source motor mounting STEP files and they are almost identical for the SV06 and PLUS. Only the Plus has a 2mm bigger hole for the linear rod. So indeed the new markers will fit the SV06 just as well!!! Thank you for the amazing news!

The method I show is a replacement for the Auto Z-Align that the printer does. Their method is inaccurate since it levels the gantry independently from the bed, very very far away from the bed. The method I show helps you make sure the bed and the X axis are paralell. After leveling, home the print head, and set the markers. From this on, whenever you home the print head you will be able to check the markers if the z motors are in sync. If they are not, you can adjust the lead screws back to the marks. As for z-offset, you only need to do z-offset once (and when you change your nozzle or leveling probe). It sets the distance between the probe and the tip of the nozzle. As for bed mesh. After setting the z-offset and and z is aligned you can create the bed mesh.

I completely disagree that the built-in Gates calibration system is pointless. The problem is that this printer has a bed not leveled. Just put silicone pads between the bed mounting bolts and start setting everything up. In the Klipper, it's great to see it when you perform screw calibration and then use Gates calibration, for me the level differences are below 0.05mm

Interesting idea, but I am wondering why your Z motors having the same position after homing again? On the SV06 the height for doing the adjustments manually is completely different to the Z home position, so the markers needs to be adjusted directly after homing. Wondering how that works in your video of you forget to mention that step inbetween.

When i saw this, i wondered; Did you know you can increase the voltage to the z-motors so BOTH of them have enough current and torque so they DONT loose there positions... Ive had rthis issue before where the x-axis ends up tilting. so this is the easiest option to take so the motors are both strong for the job.
@gerGoPrint3D
Жыл бұрын
Even if both z-motors have sufficient voltage, there could still be issues leading to z-tilt over time. These issues may include emergency shutdowns, micro-stepping inconsistencies, uneven mechanical force on the X axis (for example, during nozzle changes or when servicing the extruder), temperature differences, or just accidental rotation of one of the lead screws. With these little indicators, you will promptly notice if the z-motors become out of sync, even if this occurs three months in the future.

Try to switch motors to full steps. It will be noisy, but in power off, motors will hold their position. The main problem here is half step, motors at super position which can go up or down randomly for both motors. The solution to reduce noise is to use 0.9⁰ motors. Even with 1.8⁰ step and 8mm trapezoidal screws we still have 0.04mm steps, mostly fits 0.2mm for 0.4mm nozzle. A 0.9⁰step motor should cover more ranges. Would be nice if software can bring motors to a full step position in microstepping mode.

@gerGoPrint3D
7 ай бұрын
The two sides affect each other, so when you raise one, the other side gets raised a little bit. Now if you turn the coupler and the lead screw doesn’t turn, you might have a loose coupling; i.e., the coupler is not firmly attached to the motor shaft or the lead screw, and it can slip or wobble when the motor rotates. This can result in inaccurate positioning, reduced thrust, increased wear etc. To fix this problem, you need to tighten the set screws or bolts that attach the coupler to the motor and the lead screw.

But I don't mind the lack of it, it's really not a big deal. We also have smart Klipper macros that can do adaptibe bed mesh only for the area where your next print is. Then the mesh will compensate for any diffrence. And don't get me wrong, we are talking babout tiny amounts of misalignment over many many weeks. In the first 2 months of owning these printers I simply did not address this issue and my prints turned out OK.

As soon as the motors are unlocked they will start going out of sync. That's just the nature of independent z motors. The z-markers help you resync them the quickest: home, check, unlock, adjust, rehome. If they are going out of sync while locked (e.g. multiple homing without unlocking gives you worsening results one of your motors could be slipping or their driver voltage needs adjustment, but the later is extremely unlikely). If they are slightly out of sync every time you turn on the printer after half a day of unuse, that's normal for non-coupled z-axes, the z-marker system provides the quickest way to resync. If you are using Klipper, there is another option: you can just do an automatic adaptive mesh before every print (using Christian Vick's Klipper Additions) which will compensate for slight z-tilt. You will still want to re-adjust z sync every few days.

I use the Bed Visualizer plugin with the following 4 lines: G28 ; home all axes M420 S0 ; Turning off bed leveling while probing, if firmware is set G29 T; G28; Printer gets stuck on probing screen at the end, not sure if the mesh is saved, but octoprint gets the data. EDIT: I've researched it,,, and it seems I did a lot of things incorrectly with the BLV. It should include the line @BEDLEVELVISUALIZER just before the command G29 T; otherwise you get a shifted (wrapped around) mesh like I did in the video. Best actually, to click on the word "here" where it says "Firmware specific examples can be found here." above the GCODE commands text-field, and simply copy the "Bilinear bed levelling" example for Marlin. It works for the SV06 Plus, and you will get correct meshes, not the shifted ones I show in the video. Thanks for the question, which prompted me to look into this
