Under Print Settings>Speed>Dynamic Overhang Speed when setting the speed for 0% overlap to 0 (with the intention of turning that option off and defaulting to the bridge setting) it instead writes a F0 speed into the gcode. Troubleshooting Locked post. I have created a user profile for a particular filament. The slicer is set with a minimum layer time and the part is not big, resulting in a lower extrusion speed for smaller layers, and higher extrusion speed for larger layers (of course up to the value set in the slicer). 6, it slows everything down, supposedly due to the nozzle not being able to keep up with fast print. I sometimes need to increase the flow rate from the default 10% to 12% or even 15% for some filaments/surfaces (generally on larger surfaces with small layer heights). I think a minimum layer time would help slow just these short layers down enough to help with the overhangs and give me something better looking. 2mm layer height, two shells, 15% infill, the 0. #2820 opened Nov 21, 2023 by mariuske. zip. PS: “Slow Down Print if Layer Print Time Is Below” (in filament cooling settings - AKA slowdown_below_layer_time) Cura: “Minimum Layer Time” Fan Speed: Moderate to High . OrcaSlicer 1. I have created a user profile for a particular filament. Hi, Lately I tested the profiles on a local clone of Orca. 6 has a wider extrusion width, so by default, when you set the slicer to print two perimeters, you’ll actually get a thicker shell and more material with the 0. Filament Settings -> Cooling -> Cooling Thresholds -> Very short layer time Reply reply DukeIronclaw • Glad you found it!. I put the new speeds and temperatures in the orca profile and resliced, and it came out with an identical print time. I would suggest you look at the gcode preview screen in SuperSlicer. That problem just went away when I reinstalled everything I think, don't know what caused it though. In the filament cooling settings, set max fan speed threshold layer time to 2s. add ironing angle by @Ocraftyone in #2320. . On the other hand, in layers with larger printing areas, the minimum layer time limit is not applicable so the slicer can set higher speeds. Layer time stays reading as consistent, but, print speeds are wildly different. Then open both gcode files in a text editor and replace all per-layer code in one file with the code from the same layers in the other file. 2. extrude layers of molten plastic on top of one another until an object is realized. The coordinates draw a 1 layer, 1 line circle. It feels remiss that you didn't include a conversion tool to import the plethora of slicer profiles available in the community for Prusa, and make them available to Orca. 8mm thick and 5 to 10 mm high.

A new project consisting of nine blocks will be created, each with a different flow rate modifier. Bambu Slicer is a fork of PrusaSlicer but they changed the UI quite a bit. Orca Cube is shared on printables. Here’s how it works: the script looks for layers with a “bridge infill” tag (which PrusaSlicer helpfully creates) and replaces that G-code with that for arc overhangs. Vase mode works by having one continuous path without ever lifting the nozzle. This results in a reduced seam when traveling from the outer wall to other parts of the 3D print. Make sure you a give a 8% - 10% margin. (NOTE 0. 4 nozzle installed, for use with a range of layer heights. Reduce or remove the minimum travel distance for retraction. Examine the blocks and determine which one has the smoothest top surface.
