new to RRF - Slow print speeds after conversion from RAMPS
-
Hi All,
Ran a RAMPS w/ marlin for the longest time, just recently made the switch to a Duet 2 wifi 1.04. Flashed to Firmware 3.1.1. Cartesian printer, formerly Anet A8 but at this point only the stepper motors are original.
Got everything wired up and BL Touch calibrated. Started with a simple 20mm cube with Z scaled to 10mm, no infill, 2 walls. Just wanted to verify good adhesion and the thing would actually print.
Printed fine in the sense it turned out ok, but the wall print speed was painfully slow. Using Cura 4.8, i did change the firmware version to reprap in the printer settings and made sure my start GCODE was all good. Cura is set for 60mm/s print speed, inner walls at 30mm/s. I didn't change a single setting compared to when i was running the ramps so not sure what's going on.
Before the print actually starts there's a G1 F9000 (Max speed is set to 6000 in config.g). I can see before each layer there's G1 commands to lower the feedrate to 3600 then 1800 right after. I don't know why this is happening since that's 60mm/s and 30mm/s respectively which should be correct.
Hoping that someone can shed some light on what's happening here. On the first print i accidentally left top and bottom layers and once it got to the top layers it started printing at normal speeds, but i overwrote that gcode file and don't have it anymore.

Your cura start gcode likely has some marlin commands to set low speeds which is overriding your config.g

Wow, quick response, thank you.

Try printing something bigger. Is it possible that the minimum layer time setting was reducing print speed on you?

oh crap.... I print in abs and do have a min layer time set. Will check that and come back.

That did it, embarassed i didn't see that but thank You!
