@jens55 said in Where to buy quality SSR?:
Who needs constant compensation? If you have a quality printer then nothing will change from print to print. You do a single surface map and that is good until you start messing with the build surface (for example replacing the glass surface).
If you have a questionable quality printer than a flat build surface isn't going to eliminate the compensation.
Mostly true and I was referring to my very first printer which was a RepRap Mendel kit, all built from threaded rod, printed parts and a very flimsy bed. Things have moved on somewhat from those early days and the start of the RepRap movement. But it should not be necessary to do a surface map every time you change the glass. I swap glass build plates all the time and never do any form of flatness compensation. Also, I still see many people using multiple, individually driven lead screws which can jump by up to 4 full steps every time the power is cycled. So although their flatness compensation may not vary, their levelling will need to be re-adjusted or compensated every time the power is cycled. Maybe not "constant" re-adjustment but frequent enough to be bothersome IMO.
