Is there a profile for the A30T for Cura 4.8? I spotted one for the A30 created by William about a year ago for Cura 4.4 but would like to have profiles for the A30T. Perhaps I have to create a ticket to get this? Also, is there a work around to get Cura 4.8 from crashing? The Arachne Engine Alpha v...

Is there profiles for Cura? I have the profiles for repetier but in some cases Cura would nice.

Don't have the printer yet but have been reading, experimenting and viewing the gcode files. It appears you must make two (or more) objects and bring them into Cura (or another slicer that supports multiple extruders). Each object gets an exclusive extruder assigned to it (color), then after assigni...

I have not received my A30T yet, still in transit, but I am trying to understand how to slice an object so different colors (material) is used on the same layers. Envision two cylinders that are fused by 10mm along the verticle. I want the left cylinder one color and the righy cylinder a different c...

I ordered my A30T and has yet to arrive. I have been using Repetier Host on my I3 machine for at least 4 years without too much issue. I've been mutli-color printer by manually splicing in various material during live prints and got tired of failed prints so decided to go the route of the A30T. I us...

I purchased a Geetech I3 in 2017. Four years of use and no big issues. I did print some options for the machine, the biggest fix was to mechanically isolate the Z-axis rod wobble from the gantry. Print quality has been good and only an occasional nozzle clog. I was contemplating changing out the pri...

Many times skipping issues are related to insufficient drive current on the extruder. Check the voltage on your driver boards. Typically these are set to about 0.5 to 0.6 vvolts. Increasing the voltage to 1.0 to 1.1 volts will eliminate this as a potential contributor to problems with the extruder.

Anything electrical running new in the house? I'm an amateur radio operator and my transmitter caused my printer to lock up.... surprised me. As stupid as it sounds, re-program the controller? I recently upgraded Repetier and caused weird quality issues, went back to the previous version and things ...

the cables are all wired the same (or they should be... long story but mine shipped with one wired backward). So just swap out the Y for one of Z cables. The motors have two fields at 90 degree angles. The controller applies a current to one field then to the other field, to move in the other direct...

check the cable going from the controller board to the stepper motor. Since there is no feedback mechanism from the motor to the controller, if the controller tells the motor to move and it doesn't you could see artifacts like this. The Z motors are the only motors that shouldn't have wear issues wi...
