Printing a test file started at 80% then push the flow rate to 100…150…200…and 250. It seem that as the number increase the printing speed also increase. Will I kill the printer do this hahaha!
You are really making it squawk!
: - )
Yes, it will start smelling like smoke soon.
You will eventually start skipping steps and depending on your endstop configuration, might crash into an end. I think you will notice before that happens. Your corners will also start to round as you go faster.
It is also a fairly small print, so your experiments with adjusting the “feed rate” are not going to give you an accurate top speed setting if you are looking to find that. 3d printers use jerk and accelleration setting to gradually hit top speed before they use the same settings to slow down. It is unlikely your printer is hitting very high speeds on that print anywhere but the straight sides on the base.
If you calculate your machines “top speed” this way and then set that in your slicer and try a larger print you will be even more lkkely to see a layer shift, severe ringing, or underextrusion from the nozzle flow being unable to keep up when it hits the higher speeds.
Hmm interesting…
