So I’ve been messing around with diag rod length in firmware settings due to wrongly sized parts, but what I don’t understand is why the x and y are different sizes on a delta… Z size is almost perfect but x and y are about 1mm between them. Why does this happen on a delta? 25mm cube
Maybe the towers are not positioned equilaterally? Any distortion in angle?
Fan shrinkage? Do you have a fan blowing from one side?
No fan and I don’t believe there is a distortion in the angle
Inconsistent rod lengths?
@Steve_Barney that is very possible. I have heard that complaint about this printer
Have you calibrated your filament? Also what slicing program are you using? It is important for the rod lengths to be equal. Also you need to make sure your level across your print bed
Definitely a mechanical error. Most probable causes: different rod lengths, backlash, tower angle errors, etc, etc… Most of the time, this happens when the rods are not 100% the same length, so start with checking that and then progress to the next point.
If it’s a Geeetech G2s, there is a very active Google+ community for support, workarounds, fixes, and upgrades.
@Jason_McMullan I am part of that community also. Figured I would try here to have some fresh ideas. @Imants_Treidis what could I do if the rods are different lengths? I know someone has created their own rods but that doesn’t seem practical for me
I have an stl that I printed and used to setup my rods to make sure they were the same length. If it will help I will post it for you but I am not sure what kind of delta you have and the rod connections you used.
