Euclid probe and Z=0 datum
-
One nice thing about the Euclid is that it uses a simple microswitch - which are perhaps the most accurate of all Z probe designs.
And while the Super Pinda is nice, being temp compensated, it requires a probing speed a good deal slower than a microswitch.
I haven't found the specified switching frequency of the Super Pinda. The switching frequency of a capacitive or inductive probe is a primary factor in how fast you can probe. Some capacitive probes have a switching frequency as low as 50 Hz. Top quality inductive probes will have a switching frequency as high as 3000 Hz or better.

but it's better than what it was.
i would be tempted to take that and call it a day! the amount of effort to reduce that could be a lot to futzing time. -
@fcwilt Agreed. I planned to incorporate it in my build and was disappointed when I couldn't use it. However after enough tweaking I think I'm in a better place. Upgrading to the PTFE coated leadscrews helped quite a bit. I also figured out the leadscrew offsets were slightly off. Once I changed the config results started to improve. Even more so after using 4 points to calculate the leadscrew offset. This was my last G32 without the spring steel sheet on.
