Slic3r Configuration - Monoprice Delta Mini Printer

thingiverse

UPDATE 9Aug2017: More testing. I need to tweak temperatures to reduce stringing, but the revision 1 profile seems to work very well overall. The picture is a build of my Art Deco Fountain Pen Drying Stand (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2334018) UPDATE 7Aug2017: Revision 1 includes the following changes: - Revised the prime loop. It's now 3mm from the part perimeter, rather than 6mm. - Added a 2mm brim for adhesion - Changed the autolevel method from basic to P2 (verbose). Also tweaked the Z offset to 0.35mm, which provides a good balance between adhesion and removal on my machine. - Hotend heats up after the autolevel. Worked well for me, and doesn't leave divots in the bed. - Hotend starting temperature is no longer hard coded. - Increased some speeds, which seemed fine on my machine Look for MP_MiniDelta_r1.ini. The file 20mm_box_with_hole_MiniDelta.gcode is a sliced example. I've removed the older sliced examples, but the revision 0 ini file is still there if you want it! UPDATE 3Aug2017: Initial testing looks pretty good, with the caveat that things really stick to the bed. I hope to do some additional tests over the next few days, and post an update. Here's a basic configuration for the Prusa edition of Slic3r 1.36.1, set up for the Monoprice Delta Mini Printer. This version of Slic3r allows advanced setting for retraction, and the configuration takes advantage of this. It's quite basic everywhere else. Attached is a test STL 9 tooth gear, and a sliced gcode file. Also attached is a sliced copy of the calibration vector (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:109114) for testing. Please let me know if you have problems with the config - it's working all right for me, but I just received the printer.
