Slic3r Configuration - Monoprice Delta Mini Printer

thingiverse

UPDATE 9Aug2017: More testing is underway, and temperatures need to be tweaked to reduce stringing. However, revision 1 of the profile works exceptionally well overall. The picture shows a build of my Art Deco Fountain Pen Drying Stand (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2334018). UPDATE 7Aug2017: Revision 1 includes several changes: - The prime loop has been revised to be 3mm from the part perimeter, down from 6mm. - A 2mm brim has been added for improved adhesion. - The autolevel method has been changed from basic to P2 (verbose), and the Z offset has been adjusted to 0.35mm for optimal balance between adhesion and removal on my machine. - The hotend heats up after autolevel, resulting in a smooth surface without divots in the bed. - Hotend starting temperature is no longer hard coded. - Some speeds have been increased, which seems fine on my machine. Look for MP_MiniDelta_r1.ini. A sliced example of 20mm_box_with_hole_MiniDelta.gcode is also available. I've removed older sliced examples, but the revision 0 ini file remains if you need it! UPDATE 3Aug2017: Initial testing looks promising, with the caveat that things tend to stick to the bed. Further tests are planned over the next few days, and an update will be posted. Here's a basic configuration for Prusa edition of Slic3r 1.36.1, set up for the Monoprice Delta Mini Printer. This version of Slic3r allows advanced settings for retraction, which is taken advantage of in this configuration. It's quite basic elsewhere. A test STL 9 tooth gear and a sliced gcode file are attached, along with a sliced copy of the calibration vector (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:109114) for testing purposes. Please let me know if you experience any issues with the config – it works well for me, but I've only recently received the printer.
