    Great video! I am more interested in print quality than speed, so I rarely tweak my settings once I've got my printers dialed in with good results. Slower speeds, better quality and less fatigue on the various parts.

    • @Crosslink3D
      @Crosslink3D  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Absolutely. If you have the time, slower is better. Always.

  • @kortt

    Very interesting results. Thanks for the info Daniel.

    Nice video. I know a lot of people want faster prints but I personally prefer quality over speed. The printer is doing all the work so I'm in no hurry. Having said that, a well built, stable printer will give better results at all speeds.

    I prefer the idearmaker or Pruca slicer
    Interesting test
    Thanks for sharing 👍😀

    So I didn't the marlin 2. Firmware update from the original firmware it used to print perfect now the prints are terrible so bad and I wish I could go back what do I do

    can i get the link for the BL Touch holder?

  • @daanvolvo5719
    @daanvolvo5719 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Do you have an anet am8 with the skr 1.4? And kind of review. And mayby an video of the skr 1.4 with the wifi modul?

  • @outkaztproductions3671
    @outkaztproductions3671 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    PLEASE HELP!! I am not a programmer but I did the AM8 build and added an e3dv6 and a capacitive touch sensor. I cannot figure out the firmware changes. Could you send me the CONFIG files for this so my printer is not a hunk of scrap metal?!

  • @TheQBall1977
    @TheQBall1977 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video, thank you so much. Any chance you’ll upgrade the AM8 with a 32 bit driver board like the SKR Mini with smoothers? Would be interested to see the results again in addition to the metal frame!

    • @Crosslink3D
      @Crosslink3D  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, I will do board upgrades soon to compare the different options. Also Marlin 2.0 will be a topic.

    Hi this is a really nice video! I tried to understand everything but i have a doubt, you increased print velocity because you changed the frame? or the motors too?

    • @Crosslink3D
      @Crosslink3D  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, the original frame was plastic and quite wonky. The AM8 ist a replacement frame.

  • @minkorrh

    I've ordered a RatRig conversion from ebay.....I'm going to try it out and possibly just add to it to create a more CoreXY 'box' which with the addition of a bit of extrusion would be fairly easy and sturdy. I presently have the beast with a spreader bar under a cargo strap and three points across it to create a sort of Parthenon roof peak (shallow triangle) and this essentially works to keep some stability from 'x-wobble' by applying downforce, but it's still got some rippling/ghosting that annoys me.

  • @leeoswald668
    @leeoswald668 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I had a lot of problems before, and then I changed something
    Temperature 215, speed 150
    Now the quality is really good

    • @minkorrh
      @minkorrh 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm assuming that's with the AM8 conversion?

  • @ColinWatters
    @ColinWatters 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've tried speeding up my AM8 and some prints worked at 120mm/s, however I later discovered it wasn't reliable at that speed. Occasionally I got layer shifts suggesting missing steps. Think I would need to lighten the bed and/or switch to a remote extruder to get it working reliably on large prints at over 100mm/s. The above is all with PLA. I've found I have to print slower when using PETG.

    • @Crosslink3D
      @Crosslink3D  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, printing at higher speeds is a bit of a risk in the long run. Also parts wear down faster...

  • @SoemarkoRidwan
    @SoemarkoRidwan 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    My guess is this kit lack of corner brackets makes the frame vibrates more. My AM8 using the original guide prints better at 120 mm/s 4000 acceleration than the first benchy print at 60mm/s. Too much blobs at random spots, from constant vibration

  • @musicdad1853
    @musicdad1853 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a am8. Heavily modified. Last printing I tried 100mm/s and got y axis skipping. I have replaced the steppers now. [Have not tested yet] did you try any prints that did utilize the speed [longer x y runs?]

    • @Crosslink3D
      @Crosslink3D  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I will do more long term testing soon. but nothing bad happened yet.

  • @daLord70
    @daLord70 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wouldn't it be better to detach the Extrudermotor to the Frame? That should cause lower Vibrations! And how about S-Curve motions? Using linear rails? Like in the BLV 12 Mod?

  • @Ivart1985

    Have you thought about updating to Anet Evolution?

    • @Crosslink3D
      @Crosslink3D  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Looks like an interesting option. I am currently researching, which one I want to build.

  • @_mainevent_3997
    @_mainevent_3997 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I would say you transport your anet a8 issues into your Am8 because the frame kit makes the construction of the pri ter stronger but i dont really change the quality as well! take a look at blv mgn12h he build this printer as a opened build on thingiverse! I also build my Own one and clean! if you want i will show you my build 👍

    • @Crosslink3D
      @Crosslink3D  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, the blv mgn is an amazing printer. Quite expensive though if you want the original rails. I think, still an interesting option, I will look into.

    • @_mainevent_3997
      @_mainevent_3997 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Crosslink3D Yes its quite expensive but no trouble anymore about damage bearings or igus bearings if you want i send you some Picture! I also want to use a 32bit Lerdge-X board with some tmc2208 but on the otherside i outsource the entire electronic parts from the printer so i decided to make everything on my own!

      Matt Volpi works pretty well. Also gives you a bit more speed.

    Who was looking if his radio is turned on? I don't like any music while listening technical stuff. It's distracting.
