first move.
now i’ll have to figure how to handle the 2 separate bed ( only one for small print both for big ) how to wire t° sensor for that and control the both
install a t° sensor for enclosure t° control too
multi Hotend will be finish soon.
final build volume 370x200x380
front panel ( to close the printer ) will be easy to install or remove ( removed for now )
Nice! I’ve ben planning a dual bed machine as well, my idea was to put the thermistor in the middle between the beds and have them mounted flush to each other. Then with a beefy switch one could enable either one or both directly from the psu, and turn it on with a relay.
That’s would assume the beds are very similar and heat up pretty much the exact same, so I don’t know if it’d work…
@Peter_Hertel hi the solutionwith ther termistor in between was a some point part of the plan, but the border of heater bed are “cold” the bed is 214mm width for something like 205 hot area so in between there is 18mm with no heat / the solution of assuming that the 2 beds works exactly the same seame more like a bet to me but i’m may be just wrong. @Mark_Rehorst after thinking on how i will do it the solution will be this one all the time on the heating time will not be really affected and the consumed energy not so much a difference.
i still have the problem of the 2 termistors … i would like to check the 2 bed temp and correct the individual temp . OR have the average between the 2 the diference will not be soooo huge i hope ( has i say above). since the bed temp is not the MOST critical factor for print ( it’s important but a degre or half wil not make a big difference )
