|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Build Marlin
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* [Marlin Repository](https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin)
|
|
|
|
* [Instructions for Anycubic Kossel](https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin/tree/bugfix-2.0.x/config/examples/delta/Anycubic/Kossel)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/MarlinFirmware/Marlin.git -b bugfix-2.0.x
|
|
|
|
cd Marlin
|
|
|
|
cp config/examples/delta/Anycubic/Kossel/Configuration.h Marlin/
|
|
|
|
cp config/examples/delta/Anycubic/Kossel/Configuration_adv.h Marlin/
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Adjust the `Marlin/Configuration.h` for your model:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> #define ANYCUBIC_KOSSEL_PLUS
|
|
|
|
> #define ANYCUBIC_PROBE_VERSION 2
|
|
|
|
> #define ANYCUBIC_KOSSEL_ENABLE_BED 1
|
|
|
|
>
|
|
|
|
> ( #if ANYCUBIC_PROBE_VERSION == 2
|
|
|
|
> #define NOZZLE_TO_PROBE_OFFSET { 0, 0, -15.00 }
|
|
|
|
> )
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
|
virtualenv -p python --no-site-packages .
|
|
|
|
source bin/activate
|
|
|
|
pip install -U platformio
|
|
|
|
pio run
|
|
|
|
pio run --target upload
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Set up the 3d printer
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `Configuration > Advanced Settings > Initialize EEPROM`
|
|
|
|
* `Configuration > Delta Calibration > Set Delta Height` ( G33 P1 )
|
|
|
|
* `Configuration > Delta Configuration > Probe Z-offset` ( Set manually to 15.00 )
|
|
|
|
* `Configuration > Delta Calibration > Set Delta Height` ( G33 P1 )
|
|
|
|
* connect the Z-Probe and start `Configuration > Delta Calibration > Auto Calibration`
|
|
|
|
* `Configuration > Delta Calibration > Store Settings`
|
|
|
|
* `Motion > Bed Leveling > Level bed` followed by `Store Settings`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
use `Configuration > Advanced Settings > Probe Z Offset` to correct the difference and execute the calibration again
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### optional: tune PID

|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
### Plotting
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
use Inkscape and the included [Gcodetools](https://github.com/cnc-club/gcodetools).
|
|
|
|
A 3d-printable pen holder (to use with rubber-bands) is attached in the `addons/` folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Prepare Image
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Make sure to have everything on a single layer
|
|
|
|
* At the top bar leave units at px but treat them as mm!
|
|
|
|
* scale object to desired size
|
|
|
|
* `Path -> Object to Path`
|
|
|
|
* `Path -> Combine`
|
|
|
|
* `Path -> Union`
|
|
|
|
* `View -> Display mode -> Outline` to preview
|
|
|
|
* if there are too many nodes: `Path -> Simplify`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Gcodetools

|
|
|
|
|
|
