Topic: The Need for Speed

How fast (mm/sec) are you successfully printing on your Solidoodle?  Once we know the "winner" here, maybe they can post their Slic3r (or other) INI files, or list the appropriate parameters.  What are the "secrets" to getting faster prints?

You know those Bowdendoodles will kick the pants off anything that we OEMs have, however, I am interested in seeing how fast some of them can go.

Re: The Need for Speed

I've done 150mm/s before on infill, 110mm/s on perimeters.

Filastruder - the robust, inexpensive filament extruder
E3Dv6 All Metal Hotend - the premier 3D printing hotend

How well is it working for you?

Can you post your speeds for .2 and .1 as well?

My SD3:  Clear plexiglass case, case heater, X axis stabilizer, Z axis stabilizer, thumb screws, filament guide, heatsinks on all motors, extruder fan, controller fan, heatsinks on motherboard, Y rod pillow block, USB and Power on/off switch, fully calibrated including trimpot tuning. Am I missing anything?
