General Slicer info
- Slic3r profile files are stored in
C > Users > Elias Heuninck > AppData > Roaming > Slic3r > print
- This way they can be found & loaded by the Repetrel sofware.
- Hyrel standard recipe naming convention:
0.5w, 0.2z, 30f, 35pct.ini
=
nozzle width, layer thickness, travel speed, infill percentage
.
- Generally it's sufficient to customise only the print settings profile, as the printer- and extruder profiles are already set up for all possible configurations.
Print settings
- Layers and perimeters
- sets Layer height
- Vertical shells
- sets wall count
- option for spiral mode
- Horizontal shells
- sets floor and ceiling count
- set both zero for open vase
- Infill
- in percentages
- set zero for hollow structure
- Skirt & Brim
- useful for nozzle priming and perhaps bed adhesion
- Support material
- Will be zero in almost all cases
- Speed
- Use same speed for all moves (print and non-print moves)
8mm/s
is a nice and conservative speed.
- Multiple extruders
- set to 1
- Advanced
- Extrusion Width: set to
nozzle diameter + 10%
. For a nozzle of 1.5mm, adding 0.15 results in an extrusion width of 1.65mm. (calculate 10 %:x * 0.1 = 0.x
)- All the extrusion values should be the same
- Overlap: set to 15%
- Notes: Write date, name, project and reason for the profile. Be clear and thorough.
Filament settings
- Filament
- Diameter: set to 17mm. This is the inner diameter of the cylinder.
- Extrusion multiplier: set to 1.
- Temperature: set all to 0 for Plasticine.
- Cooling: settings not relevant for
EMO-25
toolhead.
Printer settings
- General
- Size & coordinates
- don't change
- Capabilities
- Extruders: 4
- Custom Gcode: leave as default
- Extruder x
- Size
- Nozzle Diameter: if I understand correctly, this value is ignored.
- Other settings: leave at zero or at default.
