Pressure Advance, what is it, what does it do and how do we tune it. In this video I'll be answering all of those questions.
*Since recent firmware change, it is necessary to issue a 'restart' command after changing any settings or following any calibration procedures.*

@properorientation 7 месяцев назад

exactly right. i used this months ago when i set up my printer, just upgraded a bunch of stuff and wanted to do a full refresh tune up but of course i forgot how, so i opened up the book of ricky to save the day.

@Adamtherealboss 6 месяцев назад

💯 Used it to set up my first printer and back here for another one.

Your series on the Sonic Pad is literally the best and most accurate information available to date. Thank you so much for making these videos. It would be AMAZING if you made an Advanced Series as well. I have improved my prints 10 fold due to your videos. Thank you!

@TheElectronicDilettante День назад

Your channel has quickly become my go to for all questions 3D printing. Unlike other content creators, you actually have something to say. Where as most of the others just use the information to hear the sound of their own voices. I have a ton of questions but I’ll try to spread them out between the videos that are already covering something similar. As far as pressure advance, I understand the test, the purpose and desired outcome. What I’m curious about is why the pressure isn’t calculated in real time by monitoring the amps used by the stepper motor which is a decent representation of the rise or fall in nozzle pressure. I’ve only been into 3d printing for about 3-4 months now. I started with an Ender 3 (1.0), then realized I needed to increase print volume so I got an Ender 3 S1. Wanting to print more exotic filaments, and having developed some brand loyalty, I just got a K1C . A new line of filament from polymaker called Fiberon is basically all engineering grade filaments. What’s more, all of their filaments have printing profiles for the BambúLabs X1 Carbon which has properties that aren’t to far from the K1C . I downloaded the config files and manually setup filament profiles in Creality Print (I know most people aren’t fans) and found that the filament print variables fall within the parameters of the K1C . The PPS-CF is at the upper limit of the K1C print temp but should work. I have 2 spools of Fiberon arriving today, the PETG-rCF and PET-CF17 so we’ll see how it goes. Thanks for the videos!!

0.578 is my number for an Ender 3 v2 with a Bowden tube and a Minimus shroud. The test model printed out with a very obvious bulging corner, to a small area that was good, and then an edge that was falling in. Thank God for your videos, Ricky! The test calibration cube printed out perfectly.

@Mlgxm4st41 11 месяцев назад

Just a little tip for anyone attempting to do this. While its visible in the slicer settings but it is not mentioned to have turned off in your personal settings, make sure to also turn off "jerk control" because this is essentially what we are tuning and like mentioned to turn off "acceleration control" it fights pressure advance. I am not a slicer guru like some and printed 3 terrible cubes before I stumbled across that pressure advance is Klippers version of jerk.

@billverine765 Год назад

Yet another in a long line of awesome videos. Keep up the great work Ricky. I just installed a Sprite Pro on my Ender 3 Max NEO that I already had using the Sonic Pad. It was quite an ordeal thanks to a total lack of documentation from Creality for using the Sprite Pro with the Sonic. Pressure advance is the only thing I haven't finished up and am going to do that shortly. Ironically the Sonic offered up a brand new firmware update this morning that said it directly supports the Sprite Pro, but once again, zero documentation and you cannot even see this firmware release on Creality or Cloud websites.

Love all these videos and followed them perfectly…. Almost perfectly. Pay attention to how you enter the new pressure advance setting. Somehow I entered 0.71 when it should have been .071. Prints were horrible.

@JimiBanda Год назад

Your videos are amazing. Always to the point and very clear with directions. I was hesitant to get the sonic pad, but once I saw you were using one and had videos, I was much more comfortable getting it. I am all up and running! And prints look amazing, at blazing speed. Thanks.

Having just got into 3d printing 2 months ago, I cant thank you enough for these videos. Excellent stuff. Can I ask now that the sonic pad has had some time to develop and improve, would you consider making an update video series on whats changed since releasing these guides? An "advanced" guide to go with this? Regardless, you deserve much more than just a coffee IMO. Id like to buy you dinner, too. LOL. Ive now subscribed and look forward to your future content. Again, thank you, Ricky.

@chrismalone3233 Год назад

Thank you so much for spending the time to make these videos! I've just upgraded to the Creality CR-M4 with a Sonic Pad. I've been following along often replaying your videos numerous times to get the information sunk into my aging brain, but I'm stuck now. I'm using CURA and the Endor 3 v1 Pro profile to work my CR-M4 (I can't find any CR-M4 profiles anywhere) but at this point when I try to print the Square Tower I get to 99% and then get the following error: Unable to parse move 'G1 Z0.2 E' I tried other files and get the same error at 99%. Creality Print doesn't give me this error, but I would really rather use CURA. Any suggestions as to why this is happening? Thanks, again this is an awesome series... The manual Creality didn't supply! Update: I learned that the End G-Code from the Creality PDF has a typo, and should read: G1 Z0.2 E-2 F2400

@veasy Год назад

Hi Ricky! Thanks for the videos!! I just printed the tower. Do I have to restart the Sonic Pad after printing or are the command line codes (SET_VELOCITY_LIMIT SQUARE_CORNER_VELOCITY=1 ACCEL=500 - *Direct Drive* - TUNING_TOWER COMMAND=SET_PRESSURE_ADVANCE PARAMETER=ADVANCE START=0 FACTOR=.005 in my case) only used once? I saw in a previous video I had to enter a code after completion so the printer got back to the normal state (Rotational distance -> m82)?

@Weduard90 Год назад

You can either send the command "restart" in the consloe or just restart the sonic pad manually. this will clear the printer

@mozeymusic7002 4 месяца назад

Do we have to do anything with those commands we enter into our console or do they just override once we've finished this test print?

@patrikthornell8035 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for this series about the Sonic pad! Truly briliant!👌 But I have a question, when I do the pressure advance test my prints looks great just at the bottom and then starts to get worse higher up. Can I set a negative value to start the calibration just to sort out the perfect measurement?

@piercarlocungi1054 Год назад

Ricky, you made an excellent playlist, but you didn't mention *how many WALLS* should be set for the test. I've always seen just one, but in your video, it seems like there are 2 or 3... Can you clarify?

@RickyImpey Год назад

Hi, it doesn't really matter as it's only the outside corners that we are looking at. I believe I just left the walls at the default value for this profile so it was 2 or 3. You could just use 1 to save time and filament too.

@johnmcdonald3231 Год назад

Ricky what fans and shroud are you using on your sprite extruder in the video? Would you recommend it? Im having trouble with overhangs since the Sonic Pad unless I really slow things down. I'm guessing it's a cooling issue. I mostly print PETG. +++ I think I’m mistaken I thought that was Sprite extruder!

@RickyImpey Год назад

I run the Minimus Cooler on my E3v2 but currently standard cooling on my S1 Pro with a Sprite extruder. The cooling is the weak part though and needs work. I plan to do something about this soon.

@ilja.puzina Год назад

Thank you this video series @RickyImpey ! But I have one question: these setting for Cura (Layer Height, Print Speed, Travel Speed, etc), are they only for this pressure test or do I need to keep them for future printing?

@RickyImpey Год назад

That was just a quick model I created with lots of square corners to try and show the difference pressure advance can make. I don't have it uploaded anywhere.

@georgee9250 Год назад

Question for you is there a code I need to add or delete after I am done this to erase the 2 I placed in to run the test? Secondly has anyone experienced worse print quality since doing this?

@nathanmitchellita Год назад

My first layer along with every layer looks awful. Gaps in the filament 6 layers up please help I don't know what else to do. I have a glass bed and the mesh diagram showing 0.0X for most points however the mesh diagram is not flat and looks distorted in one corner

@ScottyKnows_3D Год назад

First of all...LOVE your videos I've watched this entire series over these last few months since I got my first printer (Ender 3 S1 Pro) and the Sonic Pad!! Quick question though, I'm finding sharp corners at higher speeds and accel to have huge divots in the seams so is there any benefit to running the pressure advance test at the higher speeds and accel that you would be printing at? Perhaps a speed of 150-200 mm/s and accel of 2000 or more instead of 100/500? I'm not entirely sure if it's pressure advance related yet, but wanted to ask anyways.

@heavyjohnny Год назад

Ricky, your walkthroughs are amazing! Keep up the good work. I was hoping you could give me a pointer above .2 layer height with my 06 nozzle. 75% is out of the question, I cant get this tower to print. I've been working on it for three days and nothing I do seems to help. I'm lost! I have followed you all they way through tin sonic pad serries. Please Help!

@RickyImpey Год назад

Hi, have you tried a smaller layer height just to get it to print? The 75% part isn't critical and is mainly to speed the print up but also to help make defects more critical.

@gbspikyfish Год назад

I had a similar problem: stock Ender 3 V2 hot end, but with a 0.6mm CHT nozzle. A layer height of 75% of the nozzle width (0.45mm) at 100mm/s with a 0.6mm nozzle would require 27mm^3/s of flow; way above what this hot end can do. I printed the tower with the above settings but a 50mm/s print speed. It worked (for the purposes of the test) but it was struggling. If I did it again I'd reduce the layer height to 0.3mm to give the hot end an easier time.

@susomartinezromero Год назад

amazing... thanks!!

@johnbush8224 6 месяцев назад

Thank you for a great series. I'm struggling with the methodology on this one. Your procedure describes setting the layer height to %75 of the nozzle diameter (i.e. 0.4mm x 0.75 = 0.3 mm). I think this is appropriate if you are normally printing at 0.3mm layer height. But what if you normally print at 0.12 or 01.5mm? It reasons to me the nozzle pressure will very highly depending upon your actual print height. Shouldn't we do this PA calibration at your normal height? I've been scratching my head. I did a calibration at the %75 (0.3mm) and print at 0.12mm. It looks terrible. I'm going to repeat this method but at my normal slice height and see how it affects output. I'm not challenging you here, merely trying to reach a better level of understanding.

@bestplumbing1357 Месяц назад

iv watched every video up to this one and just now seeing "Since recent firmware change, it is necessary to issue a 'restart' command after changing any settings or following any calibration procedures.*Do i have to go back through every step again? Also is restart command the same as SAVE_CONFIG because that restarts it as well

@TheSuburban15 Месяц назад

If you don't set the bottom layer to the layer height, then the mouse ears will only be an outline.

@oleksandrkravchuk3232 Год назад

Thank you, Ricky! that was the most clear and simple explanation, I've seen! It helped me to configure pressure advance on my Ender 5 S1 with Sonic Pad connected - I did everything according to your guide: 1. PID tune (bed + extruder) 2. verified E-Step (it was fine) 3. Input shaping 4. Pressure advance Than I printed ringing tower with full speed 250 mm/s - the print was succeesfull, however I still see some minor ghosting. My understanding was that Klipper should shape the speed profile disregarding the speed I've set in slicer (PrusaSlicer in my case). Is it correct? Or should I still lower the speed in the slicer to avoid ghosting?

@RickyImpey Год назад

Hi, in a way, yes and yes. Klipper will attempt to reach the speed settings you ask it to but it will limit and control the acceleration using your input shaping tune plus any other acceleration settings. There is also only so much the input shaping sensor can do and sometimes some more fine tuning of the resonance compensation is necessary. There is some good information here if you want to learn more: www.klipper3d.org/Resonance_Compensation.html

@oleksandrkravchuk3232 Год назад

@@RickyImpey Thank you!

@colebrame3809 3 месяца назад

Once I have done this, if I want to print at a higher speed should I redo the pressure advance test with the speed turned up or will it compensate for it in the firmware?

The console codes is made of two parts, one is to set_velocity_limit acceleration, the second is the printer-specific set_pressure_advance test parameters, make sure both are entered. I once forgot to enter the first command and ended up factory resetting everything only to realize my mistake later on, lol.

@xALFx13 Год назад

Hello Ricky, question when doing the pressure advance cube to test. do I need to put my flow rate at 100% or leave it as what I have it. I have tried this before and made chance and It seem to have made it worse. for me.

@RickyImpey Год назад

I very rarely change flow so I would do mine at 100%. However, if you can't get good quality and you've tuned rotational distance then use whatever you plan you slice with. It's all about dialing in the best quality for your machine so use whatever looks best if my settings aren't working for you👍

@dkangel121 Год назад

I get sending the commands - but once it is set do we need to change it back to a default or is it temporary after the test is complete?

Thankyou for making the videos and I am getting a lot out of your videos, but I do have 1 request. Slow down. It seems like you have speed up the screens even as you are entering. New to 3d printing, I am having to replay sections many times to try and keep up. Possibly make a written guide that one can follow step by step? Thanks!

@igotthisnamefirst Год назад

@harrison0550 Год назад

These videos are awesome! I’ve been fighting with the sonic pad for 5 hours tonight and I’m back at step 1. Any chance you want to make a video on changing the config file when you add a sprite extruder? I’ve got a Neo max that I put a sprite extruder on. Had it configured perfect with marlin but Klipper is kicking my rear.

@RickyImpey Год назад

I don't have the wiring loom to fit a sprite to my V2 so I can't test it but is it not just a case of setting a different rotational distance and probe offsets? I didn't think they used different board pins but I could be wrong.

@harrison0550 Год назад

@@RickyImpey You are spot on. I got the rotational distance set perfect thanks to your video. Hitting 100 mm spot on everytime now. The probe offsets and extruder offsets are what keep giving me issues. Every example I find online has me probing off the bed. The ones that do probe close have me printing out of center on the bed. That seems to be my last hang up is just finding the right positioning to enter for the sprite.

Do I still need to input a retraction setting? Or do I leave retraction off for the test as it might mess up the flow? Or does pressure advance eliminate the need for retraction at all?

@mattb6649 Год назад

If you have the web ui open and watch the gcode screen that you enter commands on as it's printing the test piece , you can see what it's adding for pressure advance and if quick , can find the best layer and use the number that's on the screen to get real f'n close , just my 2c , .085 is what web ui said and I ended at .087

@Void-in7yl Год назад

Every time I try to start the tuning tower print it starts printing the first layer and then gives an error that says that the "move exceeds maximum extrusion" and stops the print. I looked over and watch the whole video again, but nothing works. I basically give up at this point.

@jrumpels 8 месяцев назад

WIth my Ender S1 Pro, I did all PA test, all other tests before and after including the speed and etc..

After several unsuccessful trials, I reset everything but I havent been able to print anything since. Changed the nozzle, reset everything, increase, decrease various heat factors, simply does not work. Interesting.

Thanks! After this test, do I undo the changes in the profiles setting, or do I keep them ( eg layer height , infill and printing speeds)

@RickyImpey Год назад

Just hit the reset icon at the top next to the drop down arrow or select a different profile to reset all of the changes, don't keep them.

@alanambler798 Год назад

Thanks for some great videos. I have followed all up until now with no problem . I have come to slice the tower and get the message unable to slice due to small layer temperature setting ? any Ideas? using the imported normal PLA profile This appears to have sorted itself out after re starting this morning?

@RickyImpey Год назад

Yes, this is a new setting with Cura, I believe it's in the cooling section, you may need to make it visible. It confused me for a while too. I believe you need to ensure that it isn't lower than the first layer temperature.

@trevorstookey203 Год назад

Thanks for the videos. I’ve changed my pressure advance setting. If I want to redo the test, do I need to set it back to 0?

@RickyImpey Год назад

The code you enter before running the print zeros the pressure advance before then changing for each layer it so you can repeat the process exactly every time.

Great material, thanks again for taking the time to share this. I Have an ender 3 s1. I've followed all your videos to this point, but I cannot get this cube to print properly at all at these new speeds (profiles from previous video), not to mention the retraction makes a terrible noise. Every layer is literally missing chunks out of the sides, lots of separation. The only way I initially was able to get it to print is to slow it back down to pre-sonicpad speed of 60mms. So taking a different route I've increased the flow rate to 120%, then 150% which hasn't made any difference. I didn't have the vibration sensor, so I tried it with both acceleration control on and off, but no difference. Just using esun PLA+. I've ordered a vibration sensor, is it just that it can't print at these speeds without the vibration sensor? I'm happy if that's the case, otherwise starting to feel like maybe there is actually something wrong with the printer Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

@pault9314 10 месяцев назад

OK worked it out with a bit more trial and error. Went back to scratch and whatever I did I must have accidentally messed up somthing as the horrible retraction noise has gone. I've also upped the nozzle temperature by 5% so printing 220 for PLA+ and between that and the retraction issue so far so good, almost perfect in fact! don't even have the vibration sensor yet. Thanks

So, found out after dismanteling the extrusion element i went to take a closer look at the motor itself. Does it really does nothing or??? Well yes its moving very fast but back and forth. Bad luck in flashing i thought so i flashed the original creality firmware onto it. Same result. Ok faulty stepper motor so i took exactly a spare one and this one did the same thing moving very fast back and forth. So i prolly somehow burned out the driver? Logic says to look at the last thing you changed before things start going bad. And that is connecting the Sonic Pad. So what i have now is a unusable pad, and a printer that costed me 529 euro.

OK Ricky, help some of us fence riders out. I am capable of adding Klipper to my Ender 3v2 via other means ( additional computer etc) but the ease of the SonicPad is tempting. However, bottom line, do you suggest one over the other (roll my own or purchase Sonic Pad) and if not, why not. Am I lazy? Probably. TY in advance.

@RickyImpey Год назад

If you have the kit and ability to add klipper without the Sonic Pad then save yourself some money. However, if you want the screen near your printer rather than having to have your phone or laptop nearby then the Sonic Pad could be the best option.

What are the settings to setup the tower STL file in Cura?

@user-lx9jm1wo3h Год назад

How do you update the printer.cfg file where it actually saves/updates to the printer firmware? A friend of mine has the sonic pad hooked up to his Ender 5 Plus, along with a new sprite extruder installed. Since he installed the sprite extruder, he now needs to edit the printer.cfg file with new probe offsets and PID settings, but he cant seem to get it to save. The issue he is having is that when he edits the printer.cfg file via mainsail in the web browser, and then clicks save/restart firmware, nothing actually gets updated in his printer firmware. After he edits and saves/restarts firmware, it still homes off center. In addition to that, the settings he edited in the printer.cfg will reset back to default if he powers the printer and sonic pad off/on. Any idea how to resolve this issue, and actually update the firmware settings?

@tyranusblack Год назад

Another great video, I managed to follow through all the steps but perhaps I have missed something as getting a popping sound when printing. It’s not all the time though. I have the sonic pad on a Ender 3 s1 pro. Any ideas anyone?

@RickyImpey Год назад

A popping sound can often be a symptom of moisture in your filament. Do you have a way to dry your filament?> If not, try this: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WC3jvuq-uq8.html

Hello Ricky i have been waiting your videos on the sonic pad to set up my,everything was going well until setting up pressure advance whe i went to to print the square it stop at 99% and displayed !! Unable to parse move 'G1 Z0.2 E' how can i fix this issue thanks

@roofoofighter 7 месяцев назад

Your end g-code in Cura must have an error in it. Go line by line and make sure that it matches exactly what is in the PDF from Creality. I had the exact same problem and it was because I copy/pasted and it messed up the code.

@SoliDudesGaming Год назад

If I got 17 millimeter (1.7 centimeter since I don't have a millimeter tester) would that seem correct? Seems low. 17 x .005

@RickyImpey Год назад

That is a lower figure than I got on my direct drive printer but it could mean that you have a good solid setup that was pretty close already. Have you tried a square sided print to see how it looks with the new figure?

@alexandreplaideux9237 10 месяцев назад

Firstly, a big thanks for you videos, nothing to say just a really clear perfect job! On my brand new ender 3 S1 pro, i just ran the input shaping and pressure advance test in a row (after all your other test mention in the series in the right order, PID, E-steps etc..) The test tower was printed perfectly with really straight lines on 0.3 layer hight with no ghosting at all (with a kinda mate black finish with my PLA). After setting the pressure advance (10.68mmX0.005=0,0534 pressure advance value) my calibration cube and benchy (printed at 60mm/s instead of 100mm/s for the tower test and with 0.02 layer hight) looks kinda glassy with some micro ghosting on the lines. But the cube and benchy now have perfect angles. Do you think i need to run both tests again? is it possible that the sonic pad didnt saved the input shaping test correctly? I can send pictures if needed. Thanks a lot!

@hyksos2 7 месяцев назад

The matte vs glossy look is purely temperature related, lower nozzle temperature to have a more matte look, and increase to have glossy look. Glossy make all imperfection more visible. You can go in the config file in the WebUI of the sonic pad to see if the input shaping are saved, look at the bottom of the file you should see a DO NOT EDIT with a #*# [input_shaper] and some value under it. Also make sure you uncheck the 'enable acceleration control' in your slicer.

@solariz_galaxy Год назад

This calibration is related to the speed which the test is performed (100mm/s). If we want to increase the speed we should run this calibration with different speed right? I printed on 160-170 mm/s after performing the calibration successfully and my print have issues with the corners. All your tests I guess is performed in 100mm/s. Personally I want to pump up the speeds even more.

@ScottyKnows_3D Год назад

Haha I just asked the same question. For kicks I'm gonna run a PA test with 200 mm/s and 3500-5000 accel tonight and do a benchy. I'm trying to take these divots out of the corners like you I believe!!
