Having problems with Anycubic Kossel Linear Plus calibration

@infiniteloop
As for retraction speed - i tried low speeds (30-40 mm/s) and got way too much stringing. But will try to lower down for experiments.
Distance - yes, looks too much, will lower it. -
…got way too much stringing
With PETG, in my case it helped to lower the hot end temperature a bit (-5 deg.).
-
@infiniteloop Yes, lower temperature reduces stringing, but i'm already at 240 С for the first layer and 220 C for all higher layers. 220 C is the lowest temperature recommended by my filament manufacturer.
So looks the only 3 parameters i can play to reduce stringing are Retraction length, retraction speed and coast at end. -
220 C is the lowest temperature recommended by my filament manufacturer.
My PETG is rated at 210-220 C. Worked for my Aero clone the printer came with, but when I mounted an original E3D water-cooled design, I had to go with 235-240 C instead. Everything is relative…

For now i use (bowden tube 640 mm with ID 2 mm):
Retraction distance = 8.0 mmyou might want to build flying extruder.
-
@Veti That's interesting, but not in nearest future as it is rather complicated.
-
I have a printer with about 1.1meter bowden. I run 4 to 5 mm retract at 40.
-
@Danal On what plastic? I use PETG now and it is very prone to stringing. What extruder are you using? I'm on stock Anycubic one, which is not very accurate. Extruder modification is next thing to upgrade in my list after making magnetic arms.

Measured Z offset at all points from bed.g with G30 S-1 and updated bed.g with H for each point
If you mean that you just used G30 S-1 to see what Z value it was triggering at, that is NOT what the G30 H parameter is for. It is for correcting for variations in trigger height at different points, if your Z probe doesn't have a consistent trigger height. See https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Calibrating_a_delta_printer#Section_Adding_trigger_height_corrections_to_the_bed_g_file.

@dc42 I'm a bit confused.
Let's say i'm measuring Z probe height initially at X0 Y0. I go through the steps 1-9 described in https://duet3d.dozuki.com/Wiki/Calibrating_a_delta_printer section "Measuring the trigger height". I read, let's say, 15.500 at that point. Repeating the steps 7-9 several times show that trigger height is consistent at X0 Y0. I put this value to config.g an do autocalibration.
After calibration i check the trigger height value at X0 Y0 and get consistent result 15.500.
But when i move, let's say, to X50 Y0 and do G30 S-1 i get 15.550. I repeat G30 S-1 several times at this point and always get 15.550. So this is consistent.
I thought that i should add this +0.05 value to G30 in the bed.g file for the corresponding point. Am i wrong?
