Once again, thank you for the outstanding contributions from the community. 02 (tested with orca - it’s 0. 0-dev. 40 line width and it has been fixed by the SoftFever team it was effecting the calibration to get the walls to bond good this was effecting the top flow calibration settings to try and fix the wall bonding problems. 31. You switched accounts on another tab or window. Hi @SaltWei, do you have any news on the absolute flow rate feature? All reactions. Home. Calibrating Flow Rate. It has ironing turned on by default. I would also love the same for "Bed Leveling" as I only run it when I have powered my machines down. I use the Orca Slicer variant of Bambu's slicer because it offers finer-grained control over the slicing process and makes tuning and using tuned filament profiles much easier than Bambu's official slicer, which lacks good calibration routines for some of the most important variables in good printing: flow rate, pressure advance, and. Minor under extrusion - Not enough material is extruded (flow is too low). Do not change any settings, just pick off menu and hit print. Set the flow ratio to 1. Join me as I share expert tips and undocumented calibration techniques for tuning filament in Orca Slicer. G-code generator for 3D printers (Bambu, Prusa, Voron, Creality, etc. This is neat in that it does the math for you when selecting the chip that looks best, but Orca slicer is nice because you choose what to run.
