Ringing on prints
-
I slightly changed your profile , can you test it ?
(rename file to .fff instead of txt)
please print the cylinders one at a time , not both at the same time .for some reason your speed is set very slow at 20mm/s , why ?
i changed it to 45mm/s and reduced acceleration , if you have some kind of issues . if its a problem set speed back to 20mm/s
other changes should not effect your printer . the profile seems very old. -
@hackinistrator Oh damn it exported the TPU testing profile I was setting up and not the PLA. Sorry that was my fault I didn't realise it had done that.
If you would prefer to look at how the PLA profile is for the printer it is here.
what makes you say the profile is old ?
-
are you using the latest s3d version ? (they didnt update in years and probably dead , but still your profile config looks like it was created before the latest version)
if you have time try my profile for single cylinder .

@hackinistrator yep I am using v4.1.2 which is the latest. I am more than happy to try a different slicer even though I am not familiar with other slicers. I did used to use Cura years ago when I 1st got my Hictop in clone but ended switching over to Simplify3D as I found I was getting better prints using it.
I am doing the 20mm cylinder now and I will do the 40mm after to see what the difference is. So far it is looking really good. Haven't a clue what you changed but it seems to be doing the trick so far. Fingers crossed and it will have solved the issue.

@hackinistrator whatever you changed seems to have worked wonders. I will delete the other profile and run with what you have done for me.
Only thing that I would like to do is try and minimise the seam line a bit more but if that is all I have to contend with I will gladly put up with that.
If you have any other suggestions to improve it further I would be very grateful.

Give Prusaslicer a go. I’ve moved to it from Cura and I’m impressed with it

i set very conservative acceleration and jerk setting in the profile i sent you (i thought you are limited to 20mm/s from your original profile) . in S3d those values are under post processing script , as this 150$ software didn't add simple acceleration and jerk settings
i also think you should move away from s3d as they are going nowhere it seems .
for easy transition you can try ideamaker .as much as i hate S3D as a company , i still find it useful for multi process and sequential printing .other then that , prusaslicer , ideamaker and cura , all of them much better now .

@hackinistrator yea the original was a TPU profile I was setting up but I didn't realise I had exported that profile, I will use what you sent me as it is so much nicer and seems to have removed that pause as well at the end of each move.
I will have a go using your settings but upping the printing speed to 70mms and also try prusa slicer and see how I get on with it.
I know Simplify3D were meant to be releasing a v5 but I am not paying again to do the upgrade and by the looks of it, the Prusa Community for the Slicer is really powering the slicer forward.
