Determine current extruder speed
-
Hi!
First time making a post, so hopefully I do it correctly.
I'm using a Duet2Wifi on a 3D printer that extrudes clay like substances. For that reason I like to see at what speed the extruder is turning. I'm not a programmer at all, so I don't know anything about writing custom code.
From what I've seen, there isn't a G-Code command or a function on the DWC or on the PanelDue that directly tells you the speed of the extruder. If there is, please tell me.
I've thought of making a macro with M114 commands and some math to determine the speed within a certain timeframe, but my knowledge doesn't reach that far.Has anyone tried this before and can share their knowledge?
Thanks -
@hblz in the forthcoming RRF 3.5 (for which the first beta is about to be released), the extrusion rate in mm/sec for the currently-executing move is included in the object model and displayed in DWC.

@dc42 Thanks for letting me know!
