@@veemajeno7511 I was just about to suggest a video from Shane Goodwin … then I saw that you were already in conversation with him in the comments of that video. 😌 Hope you got it solved. This is anecdotal, at best, but I have a friend who bought a CR6 SE and, honestly, he hasn’t had a single issue with it since he swapped out the main board for a BigTreeTech and flashing it with the CR6SE community supported Marlin 2.x fork. I initially chastised him for “fixing something that wasn’t broken” (and I am certainly not advocating the “upgrading for the sake of upgrading” behaviour we often see in this hobby, but in his case … it’s worked out great, and he’s been churning out great quality prints off that thing for the past ~8 months. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@FilamentFriday 2 года назад

@frankimanX 2 года назад

when you select 100% infill you can see at each layer that the infill is now yellow (not orange) it actually becomes a top/bottom and uses the much slower speed of top/bottom instead of infill, to bypass this you can use 99% infill, you'll see then that the infill is orange like normal and uses the infill speed

@beauregardslim1914 2 года назад

The title made me think you were talking about a trick that I often use in Cura: Turn everything off except infill. Turn perimeters to 0 and then add however many perimeters you want to Extra Infill Wall Count instead. This eliminates a pile of travels and retractions and makes a print much faster. If you just need a functional part, it often works out just fine.

@FilamentFriday 2 года назад

Beauregard Slim - I tried what you describe and it says 1 Hr 49 minutes so I’m not understanding how that saves anything. No walls, no skin walls, 2 Extra Infill walls, 100% infill.

@jdulrich 2 года назад

This video inspired me to investigate, and I think I figured out what's going on and how to easily get this benefit on older versions of Cura. I'm using an Ender 3 V2. If you set infill to 100%, Cura converts every infill layer to a top/bottom skin so it ignores your selected infill pattern, and prints the Lines pattern at top/bottom speed which is slow. The workaround is to set infill to Lines (or ZigZag) at 99%, and then if you're worried about the tiny bit of extra line spacing, you can set infill extrusion rate to ~101% to compensate. That cuts the print time down to roughly what I'm seeing with the Extra Fast setting, and the preview looks the same. In real-world use, I find that Cubic 60% has been easily strong enough for anything I've needed to do so far, especially for compression. I printed a PETG test block with this infill, and could not dent it in my 6" vise.

@ratgreen 2 года назад

My prefered way to speed up 100% infill parts, is to just use really really high wall thickness, and set the infill to 0. That way the printer moves more fluidly (along the path of the part wall, instead of the constant ziging and zaging, which is slow as it has to change direction constantly). The estimated print time cura gives you is usually off, my method is usually quicker than the predicted time. I probably wont use the crazy accel settings shown in the video as I prefer to have less risky prints that are slightly slower, than waste time reprinting because of shifting or other issues.

@Canard3D 2 года назад

This trick also work for lower infill prints ! I did a 10 percent infill for a board game insert. Went from 9h30 print to 4h50. No stringing, no mods and stock nozzle. Thank you so much.

@ed_halley 2 года назад

Maybe it's not suitable for your audience, but I was hoping you'd dig into WHY the two gcodes achieve such different results. Is it taking a different path? Is it using a different line width or flow rate so it doesn't need so many zigzags?

@pointlessonline98 2 года назад

This is a game changer! Thanks for sharing this. I just tried it on my Voxelab Aquila. I printed some valve knobs on my usual profile that took 1h10m each at 10% infill with a .2mm layer height and 60mm/s print speed. I printed the same knob on this profile at 100% infill with the .28 layer height and 50mm/s and it took 35 MINUTES!! Cura tells me even at .28mm with my normal profile it would be an hour, so this has cut my print time by nearly half. I'm using this going forward unless it's something intricate and has small details.

@46JCK 2 года назад

Running the same thing. I found that if I cut my walls down from 2 to 1 (depending on what youre printing, I have 9 separate nested parts). It saved me an additional 30 mins. So my print time is under half of what it used to be. I'm in awe, just watching the Aquila whip around. Waiting for a print to finish to see if the parts will be durable enough. Also have a bridge so I'm curious to see if I'll need to really slow it down or not. It's nut to watch tho, regardless.

@FilamentFriday 2 года назад

Exactly why I shared this. It’s not to produce the prettiest prints but a great way to get functional prints faster.

@1andDONEson 2 года назад

Should had read the comments because I just asked about the Aquila, lol, thanks...

@parasyte25 2 года назад

This is happening because there's hidden settings in cura for acceleration limit. There's a plugin in the market you can download which shows them. It's set to default 500.

@spock81 2 года назад

My bet is that it works by increasing line width. When it comes down to it, this profile still needs to extrude a certain volume of plastic to complete the part, and if it's not moving the print head way faster or increasing layer height, the only way to get more plastic out in the same amount of time is increasing line width. I've actually experimented with this in Prusaslicer quite successfully. For extra fast printing I set line width to between 0.6 and 0.8-mm on a 0.4-mm nozzle with 0.3-mm layer heights, and then at 60-mm/s you get a volumetric flow between 10 and 13-mm^3/s. For an E3D v6, that's about as fast as the printer can physically melt the plastic. The thicker lines also mean the printer needs to make fewer passes over the same area. In Prusaslicer you can also set a volumetric flow rate limit, so I'll set things up like above, set print speed to something really high, like maybe 100-mm/s, then limit volumetric flow to maybe 10-mm^3/s. This basically assures that the printer is always putting down as much material as possible at any given time, which gets you pretty fast prints. The benefit is, of course, most pronounced at higher infills, but it speeds up normal prints too.

@pturcanu 2 года назад

Makes sense. Thanks for explaining!

@flixquadrat6337 2 года назад

yes, but dont limit only with volumetric flow and a high speed. Otherwise your Inner Perimeters and Infill will be printed at lets say 60mm/s. But your outer Perimeters, which shouldnt be ~0,7mm but more 0,4 to 0,5mm for quality, overhangs and stuff will be printed at around 90 to 100mm/s. This would give bad outer walls and corner Bulging on most printers so I'd leave the outer Perimeters always on a speed your machine can handle easily, mostly 20 to 50 Side Note: Wider Line Widths are giving so much more layer adhesion! with 0,7 to 0,8 on a 0,4mm nozzle you can push layer adhesion on some PLA and PETG to more than 80%, I did some mechanical testing in my university

@pturcanu 2 года назад

@@flixquadrat6337 What do you mean by 80% layer adhesion? 80% more strength, or is that a metric for actual adhesion?

@kyleshearer1270 2 года назад

It's not that complicated. I just checked it out; The Snapmaker profiles simply don't half the print speed parameters for the walls and ceilings. Traditionally, Cura only prints the requested speed for the infill. Everything else prints at half that speed.

@flixquadrat6337 2 года назад

@@pturcanu 80% of the strength in XY direction. Basically you print lying and upright samples and do tensile testing and the lying (XY) samples are your reference, the upright samples are for layer adhesion.

@MrBra1nDeaD 2 года назад

I've had a quick look into this. Used a calibration cube and sliced it on my own printer's profile and the S3 profile after changing that printer to the same nozzle. Used .2mm layer height on both and indeed the S3 is way quicker (2x/3x). I started to align the settings to be the same as the S3 one, and what struck me was that when I selected 100% infill, it doesn't actually print "infill", but just makes the top layer 999999. It results in the same thing, except that it doesn't print at infill speeds. Changing this manually already sped the print up massively. Then aligning the speed settings also helped, especially the jerk settings (careful with these). When I had all the settings aligned, there was only 10 minutes difference (36 min for S3 and 46 min for my own printer) between the two, which isn't a lot, but they are at the moment still unexplained. I wonder What would happen if I print both and compare actual print time. I suspect they will be very close, if not the same. I have a feeling that Cura is more catered to these printers and knows how long certain tasks take (for instance waiting for bed/tool to get to temperature) and adds a bit extra for other printers to be on the safe side.

@ratgreen Год назад

An easy way of achieving the same thing is to set the wall thickness to something stupidly high, so the entire model is printed as if it was a wall. This makes the lines follow the pattern of the outer wall, which is usually longer and sweeping which means less direction changes = less accell and decell = less time printing during those slower speeds. Compared to the 100% infill, which is very zig zaggy which means lots of direction changes = lots accell and decell needed = more time spent printing during those slower movements

@ItsBoyRed 11 месяцев назад

I think you get the same result if you change infill to 100% and set it to Concentric mode.

I have an E3V2. All metal extruder, all metal hotend. I was initially able to cut my print times in half just by setting most of the speed settings to 150 mm/s, and not even touching whatever the default acceleration is for Cura's profile. I'm doing this with Jyers firmware. Which I should add has an acceleration limit built into the firmware. I don't know if Merlin does. I've been trying to figure out where to mod the firmware but haven't found it yet. If it does have a firmware limit it won't matter what you set the acceleration to in Cura.

@johnhelyar1366 2 года назад

@MrFastFox666 2 года назад

I think I see the issue. Notice that when you set infill to 100% on your Ender profile, the infill was shown in yellow, but when you selected ultra fast for the ultimaker, it was in orange. Yellow is top/bottom layers, and orange is infill. Seems like cura treated the infill as top/bottom layers on the Ender profile, and top/bottom lines get printed more slowly than infill lines.

@Gameboygenius 2 года назад

Nice trick. It would be interesting to figure out what's actually different in the profiles. It looks like the hole for the nut is too small though. Instead of loading a flat surface, it loads the sides and levers the layers apart. If you tweak this aspect of the design, the lower infill part may still work adequately.

@flymeetspaddle 2 года назад

99% agree with this. ive had similar problems with designs in the past. also would need to have enough walls to make the skin adequately thick enough to withstand the crushing.

@AsiAzzy 2 года назад

For your part in particular, i'snt it better to have like just perimeters and no infill? When i print circular stuff (bushes, collers, etc) i always go all perimeter (set 20 perimeters or so). It is much more plastic extrude per time if it goes continuous circular sweeps than the angled infill. Also it's more resistant in tension on the direction of the perimeter. And since it's a collar, it will be much better for this task as it's all tension around the pole. In my experience it also saves a whole lot of time compared to few perimeter and more infill (especially 100%)

@jenshendriks9092 2 года назад

For this part in specific I would suggest using concentric patterns for both to and bottom layers and infill. It will allow you to greatly reduce the added width of the ring because when you print it with those patterns, all the forces that are applied to the part when you tighten it around a tube will be pulling in the direction of the lines. I bet it could do with a total of 8 walls (including the "walls" generated by the infill pattern).

The S5 is a dual extruder printer the "Not Overridden" refers to the ability to print with the other extruder on that feature. If for some reason you wanted to print the walls with one color (in the first extruder) and the infill with another color (in the second extruder) you can override the default extruder with the other extruder. I use it to make wear indicator pads, when the walls are worn away and the second color on the inside is exposed it is time to replace the pad. Love your videos Chuck! Keep it up!

You can get rid of stringing by having it in combing mode so the nozzle doesn't leave the model. Also you can increase the infil speed to like 90 (ive even done 120) since it doesnt matter for quality and keep the outer wall speed 60 or 50 for the quality. Also I think selecting optimize print order helps speed up the print. If you hit slice then click the little "i" for info it will tell you what's taking up the most time and you can mess with those settings specifically. Also great video as always

@Duraltia 2 года назад

Sounds like my experience when migrating from *Prusa* to *Voron* ( changing the Printer _and_ the Software - PrusaSlicer to SuperSlicer ) Prusa obviously has all their printer and filament curated ( but highly conservative ) profiles you'll not be finding for a Voron, so I had to actually learn what to do in the Slicer to get things up and running for those speeds I built the Voron for ( technically I wanted the increased build volume, and the increased speed was just a _very_ welcomed bonus )... Lots of things play into how fast one can print with a printer and Bottlenecks can come from literally anywhere in the system hindering your speed progress. The most obvious ones being the Speed one followed by Acceleration and Jerk with the latter having a surprisingly large impact despite the small numbers you'll be dealing with but also things like Layer Time for cooling will play a role in artificially slowing down a print like a row of stop lights constantly telling your 400km/h car to slow down at every intersection ( layer change ). That being said though I'd kinda argue that you could have gotten away with just pumping up the perimeter count to like 3-4 and _maybe_ increasing the infill to say 50-70%. No reason to go past even just 80% unless you plan to remelt a part in a salt casting where you absolutely cannot have a void in your part 😏

So there are three easy possibilities how to minimize your printing time without effecting the part quality: 1. Use a wider layer line width for everything except the outer perimeter. I'd reccomend printing the outer perimeter first. You can go up to 200% nozzle width, whereas I'd reccomend using 150-170%. 2. Combine your Infill every other layer (infill layer thickness twice the value of the normal layer height). That will double the infill line height and reduce the infill printing time by 50%. 3. Optimize your infill and inner perimeter printing speed by raising it up to the limit where your extruder starts missing steps and then reduce the printing speed by 20%. You can't reach that point? Choose a higher layer height and try again. If this isn't an option for keeping the print quality high, increase your accerelations until the printer misses steps in X and Y (try to find every limit individually). Lower the value by 20% and try again. And that's your 100%-Infill-SpeedPrinting setup. Good luck, have fun. P.S.: Still not fast enough? Upgrade to a BondTech CHT-Nozzle or a Volcano Hotend. P.P.S.: Still not fast enough? Upgrade to an E3D Hemera or BondTech LGX extruder with V6 Hotend and BondTech CHT. P.P.P.S. Still not fast enough? Bro, it's 3D-printing... That's not supposed to be super fast :D

Thanks for posting this, never even thought of doing something like this till now. I did get a working profile for my ender 3 after a little adjusting, printed a decent benchy in 1 hr. 3 min. Great videos keep up the good work and thank you.

@rondlh20 2 года назад

If you analyze a specific layer then you should be able to see the difference, if any except the speeds. Using 99% infill instead of 100% can often save time too.

@yngndrw. 2 года назад

I'm a little late to this video but one thing which you could do for this part is to only change the area around the nut / bolt to 100% infill. In Cura you can use this by defining a support blocker region over the nut / bolt, then change the support blocker to "modify settings for overlaps", click "select settings" and enable "infill density", "infill pattern", "connect infill lines" and "alternate extra wall". You can then change the pattern to lines, the density to 100%. You'll want to disable "connect infill lines" and enabled "alternate extra wall" to ensure that the two infill regions touch each other. You'll also want to make sure that you select "infill mesh only" from the dropdown. (I've never actually tried these print settings, only previewed them from within Cura)

@thatguy5639 2 года назад

Terrible idea. Doing so breaks lines of continuous extrusion at the edge of the support blocker, actually WEAKENING the part.

@yngndrw. 2 года назад

@@thatguy5639 With "infill mesh only" it doesn't break the walls at all, they remain continuous. The infill is indeed broken, but it's no different to where your infill touch the regular walls. That isn't the point of these changes though - The point is to create a region around the bolt which is crush-proof. The strength of the junction will be just fine if your part is designed appropriately. If you need more strength when doing this, add more walls.

Hi, Chuck! I tried the profile hack and the issue left to solve is the layer adhesion and extrusion flow. From a 4h57m printing time, using the standard profile, to 3h12m using the hack. The "make overhangs printable" option is also nice. I'm trying the hacked profile on a Two Trees Bluer. Thanks for these nice tips and tricks.

The flow and adhesion issues were due to miscalibrated extruder e-steps. I'm struggling a bit with the retraction.

I hope this stuff becomes mainstream, and not just a hack from a specific printer.

@collinis1 2 года назад

You should do a video on 100% infill vs 99% vs all walls And test durability and speed

@nhozdien5058 2 года назад

I would say 5 wall lines, 5 top and bottom layers, and 50% infill is good enough for most thing. 100% infill is quite unnecessary. If you pay attention in the beginning, you can see him print with 1-2 wall lines. You can even get away with 4 wall lines with alternate extra wall and 10% infill sometime.

Optimizing your acceleration and final speed helps a lot! I use 4000mm/s² on X and 3300mm/s² on Y at 300mm/s on my Ender 5 Pro and don't even get layershifts in 24h prints. Only modifications are dual 5015mm part cooling, a full metal hotend and a CHT nozzle in .4mm. Edit: Forgot to mention that I also flashed the board, it's no longer stock firmware. If there's any limit in firmware, it seems to be not active in this one or at least above 6000mm/s².

300mm/s is crazy. I've never went above 100, but I like to hear about this!

@dangerous8333 2 года назад

How did you get around the firmware acceleration limit on Merlin? Does it have one? Jyers has limit of 1,000 acceleration I believe. I have to check again when I get home. I've been looking in the firmware for somewhere to increase it and haven't found it yet.

@Donnerwamp 2 года назад

@@dangerous8333 Oh, yes, I also flashed a custom Marlin. I'm not sure if there's a limit present, but while testing the Motor did nothing but skip steps at 6000mm/s² on Y, so I think there's really no limit.

@Donnerwamp 2 года назад

@@ChevTecGroup It mainly works due to the CHT nozzle, it gets basically the same flow characteristics as a vulcano hotend due to a larger inner surface area. This transfers heat better into the filament, so it melts quicker and more thuroughly. For .32mm layer heights I need to slow down to 200mm/s so it doesn't underextrude.

@HavoCentral 2 года назад

one thing i have noticed on the rare instances i use cura. The print times are significantly longer than prusa slicer with similar settings. The quality is usually lower with cura as well. cura also has way to many settings and many are redundant. Plus the hidden settings you cant see.

At 100% infill, with all of the line/layer/wall settings from the Creality profiles, and the file printed in 38 minutes 8 seconds.

@meleniumshane90 2 года назад

I printed a few items at 100mm/s on my Ender 3 Pro without any issues at 0.28mm and 0.2mm. Per the recommendations I saw online, I increased the temperature of the extruder to 215F instead of the usual 200C I use with Hatchbox PLA. I wouldn't do it with something intricate, but it worked well for some basic brackets and square objects.

@samuelbentz 2 года назад

This trick is pretty neat. I tried it on my ender 3 pro and it printed a file that normally takes 50 minutes at 100% infill in 25 minutes. However a few middle layers and some of the layers at the top shifted so the print quality was not great. Maybe if I decrease the acceleration of the printer I could improve the printing speed and not get shifting.

@SoFZlodei24 2 года назад

In regular 100% infill it just makes every layer as top/bottom layer and these are printed slower. In this "fast" profile it instead makes inner part as regular infill with it's higher printing speed.

@jakegarrett8109 2 года назад

That's probably what it is. I often set 999999 top and bottom layers when I want 100% infil (it's definitely different speed than first layer), but since my settings for top layer are nearly the same as infil I don't think I've ever noticed.

@NeoIsrafil 2 года назад

Not Overridden refers to extruder choice overrides for multi-extruder setups. I only know about it because I use a modified SV02 as my PETG and transparent part machine and that has a dual head setup. I bet its doing the printing so much faster by removing the majority of the retracts.... if you calc it pefectly you can move the head around a whole layer without stopping once.

@charlieross-BRM 2 года назад

You were reading my mind. I only have an Ender 2 to work with and that's fine; I like it and most of the time it's enough printer for me. My go-to filament is FormFutura TitanX. I have some projects where I want to get the strength up substantially so just yesterday I started investigating how to properly go about that. This example should reduce my trial and error time and I am coincidentally staying at Cura 4.13 until version 5 comes out of beta, so good timing on that too.

@Vibycko 2 года назад

Usually when I need strong part while not wanting to go 100% infill, I set like 4-6 perimeters (0.4 nozzle), a stick in a grid or cubic infill at like 10-15%, works wonders, layers dont split and feels pretty solid.
