I did that and I can see that could have been a good thing to do if it went wrong

@dc42

Thank you That did the job

Hello I just got a wham bam kit for my Anycubic Predator, but I would like to know how do I get my probe to stop the fast dive sooner so it dont crash into the bed before leveling it.

Here is my config files

Is it possible to use costum logo ?

@sinned6915 said in Help to setup BMG clone extruder:

@TPJensen How are you fairing so far?

It is up and working now and makes good prints... my Esteps was 368.21 that looks spot on in the prints. Some filament as you say is a bit differnt in my simplify3d. 0,99 - 0,95

I love the Duet2 wifi board and paneldue in my mind the best upgrade I have. On PanelDue there is only one thing and that is baby steps can only be done when the printer starts. I know I can do it on webcontrol just it could be nice to have the option.

@DocTrucker said in Help to setup BMG clone extruder:

@TPJensen Didn't mean to imply you had, sorry if it came across like that.

That is okay... dont worry I like your post and follow you 100%...
I have a mate that did buy his first printer 1½ years ago and he did buy alot of clone things and I helped as good as I could.... Now the same mate have only orig. parts and 6 printers.... Untill I started to help him he had given up and put his printer up for sale put with a little help he went from boring failed prints to good prints and he did thing is was fun and he has just ordered Ultimaker 2+ Extended.. So if your help one also with clone parts then it can be good for the original company also.. (in this case very good)

Just has you also say @DocTrucker

@DocTrucker said in Help to setup BMG clone extruder:

clone Duets

I would like to make this clear I do NOT have clone duet.

@grizewald

You are right that buying the orignal is surely the best and you get better quality. But I also buy that but as you say my money is my money and as a hobby I got more than one and not cheap once. I cant buy everything original like I want to. But again you are right that I should do that.

It is always nice to get others input and answers.

BTW everything else is original on ALL 5 of my printers so hope that gives a little credit in your mind.

Thanks for your "answer"

@droftarts

My extruder has a very good grib so no problems there....

My is a clone and they say Esteps 415 also but I'am at 388.21 but when I startet to print E368.21 before the print surface got nice and smooth... But in another tread i have one wrote to me that it could be the filament that not was the same all the way I he was right. The filament I used was one there came with the printer.

@droftarts

Yes okay I see your point.... It can be that the filament is not the best "NO NAME" I got it with the printer and only used it for test but I see it is maybe not the best idea to use it for...

UPDATE: used premium to calibrate. Filament and before it 100 mm = E388.21 and now with multi tests and did take the advange then 100mm = E367.18

@Phaedrux

I think you are right... I can also do that on simplify3D and I have made 2 profiles for filament so far...
But I did Esteps with PLA and the same PLA I did print with had Rough area on it.... So just for fun I did try and print and see where the print had the best surface and smooth but I think it was much off then... the calibratet esteps was E388.21 and I found the best surface with E368.21 ?

@whosrdaddy

Okay I will try and see if I can get a code pieced together there will work or try

@whosrdaddy

Can I use the Filament tap on the DWC to create filament with the correct Esteps/extruction ?

@whosrdaddy

Okay that info helps me alot thank tou very much.. I did not know I have to do that when it was same brand but I did know if I go from PLA to PETG

@whosrdaddy

Hi I have tried 95% and it is alot better than before, but need a bit more.

But why is this when I extrude 100mm and get 100mm and it is off anyway ?

@whosrdaddy said in Rough area on top layers:

Rough top surface is mostly an indication of overextrusion. Try printing the same object but change the extrusion rate in DWC at say 95% and see if it makes a difference...

thanks I will try that

Hi I have a Anycubic Predator have Duet2 Wifi and just upgraded the extruder to a BMG clone.
I have calibratet the extruder so extruder 100 mm I get 100mm
also done rectraction test and that is also perfect.

But when I print first layer is very good and fine but on finish top layer gets rough but not all over, can find out what is wrong.

Here is a photo of a print the area with green is rough
Layer 0,18 - Temp 195 - Bed 50
Filament PLA
Print speed 125mm/s
Buttom layer 5
Top layer 6

@Veti said in Help to setup BMG clone extruder:

yes if it extrudes in the correct direction.

Super I will set it up as soon my on going print are finsihed thanks for your help @Veti

@Veti said in Help to setup BMG clone extruder:

have you changed the stepper motor?

No I have not changed the stepper motor.

Is the E380,45  The only thing I need to change  ??```

Hello
Is there someone there can help me what to write in the config.g when I install BMG clone extruder on my Anycubic Predator ?
