  • @Skate_RC
    @Skate_RC 3 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    Glad to see your good results with your Fysetc clone, definitely a testamant to just how polished the MK3S is as a design. I own two clones, one from Trianglelab and another from Blurolls, as well as a genuine kit from Prusa Research. I am planning on adding at least a Fysetc one as well as a colored Sealand/Blurolls frame kit to my farm. Long as you understand that you may have to replace some parts on your own they'll assemble just fine. That said, if I hadn't bought my genuine Prusa first, I would've never known what to check for on my clones to make sure everything was being assembled correctly. Run Sunon fans if you can from the start and definitely just print the PETG parts yourself as even Prusa's own farm parts leave a bit to be desired. And if you can, do Paul's silicone bed mod to ensure a super flat bed, genuine or clone. It's basically the nylock mod but better. Also stock up on those POM/Delrin leadscrew nuts and linear bearings, especially the leadscrew nuts if you're prone to destroying them like me.
    In my experience I ended up liking my clones better just cause I knew what parts I was throwing into them and the fact support was on me. I also had a pretty bad experience with Prusa Support that led to me lone wolfing my genuine MK3S. My Trianglelab clone has more hours printing than even my genuine MK3S and I had the genuine one the longest so make of that what you will.
    I did hear the Fysetc clone ships with a PTFE 4.1 bore hotend which if that's the case is just plain stupid. I am running Trianglelab's pre assembled V6 clone specifically for the MK3S on all my kits and as far as I know they are all metal from factory.
    For those saying the clones rip off Prusa Research, well the design is open source and the license specifically allows clones like these to be sold legally.
    Overall, great video and I am interested to see if you'll be reviewing the Bear frame clones or other vendor's clone kits such as Trianglelab and Blurolls/Sealand in the future!

      @@Dombi3D github.com/PaulGameDev/PrusaMK3_Silicone_Leveling/blob/master/PrusaMK3_Silicone-Leveling-Jig-ThinBlade.stl
      forum.prusaprinters.org/forum/user-mods-octoprint-enclosures-nozzles/prusa-mini-silicone-bed-leveling-mod/
      For the jig and a comparable guide except done on a Prusa mini, process is very similar to doing the nylock mod though on the MK3S.
      I don't think he's finished the guide yet but it installs similarly like the famous nylock mod. Only difference is you cut 3mm ID 7-8mm OD silicone car vacuum tubing to act as the new standoffs.
      Basically take off the bed, remove all the metal spacers except the one in the middle and replace them with the tubing cut with the jig. Carefully reassemble the bed so that it's being screwed in evenly and the silicone is compressed to the height of the old spacers. Once that is done fire up octoprint or pronterface and run G80, let that finish probing and then run G81 to get the absolute values. Once that is done throw the values in to this site
      pcboy.github.io/g81_relative/
      and it'll convert it and tell you which screws to turn to raise or lower the bed. Once you get it to about 0.05 deviation you can start to level it at the bed temps you normally print at to get it super flat. When it gets to about 0.02-0.03 deviation it's good enough and the PINDA will take care of any remaining deviation. Paul recommends releveling after a week to account for the silicone settling in.
      Having done it to one of my clones I can honestly say it's worth the trouble but if your leveling is fine with the metal spacers I wouldn't mess with it.
      Sorry for the long write up and if anything is unclear. Paul is active on discord, mainly Prusa's and 602 and if you need more info I can link you to those servers.

    Outstanding video. I wish it had existed when I originally purchased a clone from Fysetc. I later bought an MK3s kit from Prusa. The clone has worked fine, but the assembly was challenging. Too many of some screws and nuts, not enough of others, no 3mm filament for the extruder cable support, a few other things that I have long since forgotten about. Both of my printers get used a lot. If I prorate the additional cost of the Prusa against the savings for the clone - especially after the E3D hotend and fan upgrade, the savings in price is negligible.
    I completely agree. If this is your first build and you can afford it, buy a Prusa. You won't 2nd guess your decision later.

    Since then I have just found out that there is a hidden easter-egg "Experimental" menu in the new Prusa 3.9.1 Firmware where you can set up an "ALTFAN" (alternative fan option, because of the Noctua supply shortage the original Prusa had to deliver 3D printers with other fans also) which slows down the nozzle fan RPM and at the same time it makes the 3D printer more quiet. I will make a short video about it, but you can also try it out when you go under Settings -> HW setup and roll down to the bottom and push the knob around 3s. After it the new menu will pop up at the very bottom. Could be that it wont make any change first just after you restarted the printer. Tell me if you managed it.

      I recently bought the Fysetc clone and tried the altfan option. It reduced the speed from around 7200 to 2800, which is even 1200rpm lower than the original noctua one.
      Combined with the seemingly lower efficiency, I think this might possibly lead to the heatcreep issue territory.

    These videos are excellent. They are concise and focus on the things that matter. I'm disappointed you haven't followed up as you mentioned, such as with the results of replacing the bearings. I'm going to try a FYSETC clone and the main thing I'm concerned with is which components I should replace at the start. I'd also be interested in knowing if the FYSETC kits have changed over the last year or two.

    • @Dombi3D
      @Dombi3D  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Thanks, I plan to use a micro swiss HSS nozzle with it which needs normaly +10˘C because of the worse heat conductivity so I think it will balance that temperature difference, and so I can use the original printing profiles. When it not works out I ordered original thermistors which would eliminate this problem and give the right temperautre values.

    I did the following changes to the clone:
    1. original PRUSA fans
    2. Original PRUSA Hotend (E3D V6)
    3. Original steel sheets (smooth/coated)
    everything else remained untouched.
    Print results are equal as you mentioned.
    But for unknown reason, if I need something, I always start the original PRUSA, I don't know why, but I do :-)

    • @oleurgast730
      @oleurgast730 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      A complete hotend is not needed - I only changed the heatbreak to an e3d PE (for potentially adding an MMU2s) and the thermistor to the Prusa one. The nozzle is also changed to a higher quality on, non-abrasive.
      For the PEI powdercoated sheet - of course ;-) It is definitly the best. The smooth one - my original smooth sheet is in its original package for more than 2 years now... The fans of my original prusa I changed end of last year - fans are not for eternaty anyways. So I keep the ones from the clone until they need a change anyway.
      But there is one change I strictly recommend: Replace the spacers of the bed (exept the one in the middle as reference) and use nylock nuts for the other eight screws instead of spacers. So you can manual level the bed using octoprint. I normaly do not use octopint (I installed it on a normal PC only for calibrating bed). With an improved manualy leveled bed, the first layer is improved a lot.

    It's pretty cheap, and would be an interesting topic.
    I am waiting for my own clone (already own one original mk3) from another brand, so I am pretty excited to see just what I need to replace to get it to that point.

      For the fan the ALTFAN solution works, I will show it in my next video, For the thermistor a change would probably solve this issue, but first I will try out how is it with the HSS nozzle works, maybe it would fit perfectly because of its lower heat conductivity it needs normaly plusz 10-15°C over brass ones but the clone is already that much hoter.

    I bought this clone in november from Spain. Bearings were fine, didnt need to adjust eSteps, Temps were fine too. LCD cables were also the right way around. The only problem i had was that the Z-Motor cables seemed to be wired wrong, so that when plugged in the only way they go, the motors turned the wrong way so that the z axis would move in different directions. I needed to cut the clip of one of the motor plugs, turn it 180 degrees and connect it back. But be aware that it is now possible that both motors spin down when they are supposed to go up, in this case you need to flip both cables. Otherwise this clone is perfect and i didnt notice any difference to my original prusa mk3s.

    So, if I understand correctly, the only real problem is the nozzle cooling fan. Is this responsible for the high temperatures? Could the quick fix be to replace that fan with one like in the original Prusa? What parts 'need' to be modded/replaced to make it really trouble-free? Great review by the way. I'm always a bit afraid of clone machines from China. Sometimes they cut too many corners, because the person making the clone doesn't really understand why the OEM choose certain parts. This one seems to be made with a bit more effort, judging by the results.

    • @Dombi3D
      @Dombi3D  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The high temperature is caused by the different thermistor type. If you want to get rid of it I would buy the original e3d thermistor because that is what programmed by the EinsyBoard. (they have probably little bit different voltage levels for different temperautres).
      The nozzle cooling fan just helps you to cool back the material over the melting zone to keep the filament solid on the top part of the heatbreak. I made another video also on this topic where I speak about the upgrade parts. Check it out.

  • @oleurgast730
    @oleurgast730 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Sorry, you missed the most impotant security issue on the clone. Fysetc uses a 4.1 bore heatbreak, so the tube inside the hotend contacts the nozzle. This is extremly dangerous, as the original Prusa has an all-metal heatbreak - so Prusas firmware allows up to 295°C mozzle temp - a temperature where PTFE already degrades into toxid fumes. Simply one wrong click (preheat accidently for Polycarbonate in the menu) needed...
    So never ever use the heatbreak delivered with the kit. Always order an all-metal heatbreak - and use it instead of the 4.1bore one. Of course you can alternativly change the firmware (but if next upgrade from Prusa comes, do not forget modifying it again). (Same problem with the Prusa Mini Clone by Fysetc, by the way - I recommend the Bondtech heatbreak there)
    Of course, if you plan on adding an MMU2s / MMU2s-Clone later, you should buy an e3d heatbreak in Prusa Edition (has a special inside design for forming the filament-tip on unload) anyway.
    For the nozzle temperature: Thermistors have variations. You simply might change the thermistor to one bought by Prusa, as they have quality-checked the tollerance. Esp. if you have an original Prusa, you do not need different slicer settings for Original and Clone than.
    I like the Fysetc mk3s Clone a lot. Have two of them (and a selfmade clone and one original). Using the right e3d heatbreak and thermistor, all have same print quality on same settings.
    As Aliexpress has a "sale" about every 2 months, with collecting coins and coupons you can get the clone at extremly low prices. I payed 283€ for the Fysetc clone about 10 weeks ago (and 173€ for a Prusa Mini clone, by the way), using a lot of coupons. Even with buing an original e3d PE heatbreak, original thermistor, noctua fan, original PINDA (if you have problemes as I had on one of my clones), original Prusa PEI powdercoated spring steel (alltogether about 100€) and cost for the filament to print the parts you have a very low price under 400€ (including shipping and tax in Europe) compared to the about 800€ (incl. shipping) for the original Prusa mk3s - and get a clone practical identical to the original (exept for the capacitors inside the power supply). But in most cases, only the e3d PE heatbreak and thermistor (you can get them on 3djake for lower cost than directly from Prusa) and a cloned PEI powder coated sheet (from Aliexpress/Trianglelab, practicly identical in function and texture to the original) will be necassary (about 50€ altogether). In my case, only problem with cloned PINDA was auto-skrew-compensation did not work. But it is not necassary, as the mk3(s) do not need it - it was put into firmware for the mk2 with its sloppy frame.
    At the last sale also the bear edition was available from Fystec on Aliexpress. In Europe from European warehouse about 310€ (shipping and coupons compensated each other). With a much better frame for only 30€ more it realy a catch (normaly, the bear is an upgrade costing about 80-100€).

Without PINDA being calibrated, the distance was leveled to low and the filament was pressed to much into the plate. Also I recommend doing a manual bed leveling (there is a octoprint plugin. You replace 8 of the spacers by screwing the screws with a locknut to the heated bed and screw them into the carrier directly (but of course by eyesight same distance as the spacer would do). Then octoprint does ABL and read measuring results and show you, how much to turn witch screw in witch direction to make the bed as flat as possible.

      Yes, because the bed which came with the clone was not assembled at that time and I also printed on the clone new clone parts and I wanted to get the same texture. I purchased some clone PEI powder coated spring steel sheets also, but not tested yet.

    How can a clone still sport an original Prusa nameplate?

    • @Dombi3D
      @Dombi3D  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have just painted the Prusa text and not the original because of it.

      The frame of Fysetc-Clone does not have the "Prusa" sign on the top. The plastc parts you print yourself. The mk3s is fully open-source, so you get the full design including the STL with "Original Prusa" from github and from the prusa site. But there are also stl with blank display cases available. Also with Prusa Slicer it is quite easy to remove the "Original" and emboss a "Cloned" instead. I did this on my 3 Prusa Mini (but not on my mk3s clones now).
      But anyway: There is a line above the "original". Mathematicly a line about something is a logical "NOT". So Prusa´s original design of the "Original Prusa" display actually says "NOT original Prusa" to all mathematicans and engeneers... So actually the clone is labeled correct and the original is labeled wrong from factory ;-)

    you didn't talk about the build... the prusa took me 8.5 hours while a fulgertech 2020 took 19 hours... the prusa took another 1-2 hours to set up and calibrate while the fulgertec took days and days ... and works but never worked anywhere near as well as the prusa. I just got my prusa but I say it is worth every penny!

    u used bearings that came with clone printer? And u got those similar results as original one in printing quality?

    • @Dombi3D
      @Dombi3D  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, I also wasn't expected that. Could be that the bed just moves back and forth and it has no torque to right/left and up/down so that loosnes makes not much of a difference. By the Z axis 4 bearings are pretty stable with the 45° turn installation method. The X axis is also not that critical. All in all I will change them in the future because I do not like the idea of this amount of bearing clearance.

      I ordered this printer, but i was looking at local shops to buy some misumi bearings, but i donno if is worth, should i change precision axes with bearings or better try with those "cheap" missing tiny balls bearings that come with the kit. If i buy bearings and rods, then a good heatbreaker for hotend , well it ends up costing like an original prusa sooner or later. I think i will keep the bearings that come with it, and see how it is. I am lazy then to re-do assembly if i want later to change bearings.

      @@Flavius-Tech I am working on the Misumi, IGUS bearings version builds. I am ready till the bed assembly and I can say that the misumi bearings with the clone axes (I did not purchased misumi rods) helped a lot. It still moves a very little amount but I think it is precise enough. Actuall results comes with the test prints when I finished the builds. To change the already assemblied printer, I think I will just change the 3 bearings under the bed, the rest is complicated and has no that much of an effect on printing quality.
