There is a setting in the configuration.h which i think needs to be changed.

I've done that, but only makes things worse. Ambient temp is shown as 86ºC smile

Re: E3D on Da Vinci

Sorry to revive this thread but I have had my da vinci for a couple months now and would like to swap to the e3d hot end. For the carriage design itself would you recommend toms design or andys design? Toms is proven while Andys looks a little cleaner and lighter but hasn't been tested extensively from what I've seen. Also could you tell me any software tweaks I would need to make to repetier?
THANKS!,Mike

Re: E3D on Da Vinci

I know that's an old topic but I need some help related to this. The thermistor wires of my Da Vinci printer have broken and I would like to replace the thermistor. Does anybody know which one is the correct thermistor to put on it?

Do you have an e3d? If you do you can just order another from E3d online.

Re: E3D on Da Vinci

Thank you for the reply. I don't have an e3d, my printer has the original nozzle. The thermistor wires got too short after they broke and I need to replace it.

Re: E3D on Da Vinci

Hey guys, I have a question.

I setup the e3d v6 on a 1.0 with repetier .92. (using the files from thingverse and the directions here) I'm using slicer settings I found in one of the few youtube videos. The printer connects well, and moves well too. The thermoister, fan and hot head work fine.

So when I go to test print something things seem to go well in the first 10 layers, but after that not so much. It gets bad and turns to slop. I've ran several test prints and they have all done the same thing.

Can anyone help me figure out what my problem is? I would love to complete this project.

Thanks.

Maybe a picture? I mean slop is a pretty vague term. Be a little more accurate with what is happening and we can see if we can give you some direction.

These are two different try's at the maker fair robot v6..


Sorry for the bad picture quality. But you will get the idea. It's not even a bad useable print. It's a mess of plastic.

Re: E3D on Da Vinci

Hmm I may gave solved my problem. If I did it was my flowrate. I didn't notice it was jacked way up, on the manual screen.

Test printing now, I'll let you know.

Re: E3D on Da Vinci

So my problem was the flow rate. I thought what ever the settings were done at would change what the manual screen, but it did not.  The next test print printed perfect. Still some other issues to dial in, but its nearing the finish line. Finally.
