calculated MVS VS real MVS
Hello,
my first post here. Short introduction: 3d print entusiast since 3 years, techically interested and (carefully said) technical advanced.
Coming to my "understanding issue". MVS is in general clear to me but I am strugling with it when I start to calculate backwards. I attached two pictures
Pic1: MVS adjusted to 11mm3/s. By calculating the total volume given by the slicer and the total time given by the slicer I get an average MVS of 3,1mm3/s. Just to mention it: The model is printed in vase mode and has a consistent flow with just a single perimeter
Pic2: MVS adjusted to 11mm3/s. Calculation based on slicer given values: 8,2mm3/s
Conclusion: Obviously the first model is much more complex as the second one. We can see that, even if the slicer shows for both models similar speeds and flow rates, the shown flow rate (11mm3/s) and the calculated print volume and time are not matching.
That brings me to the conclusion that the slicer is considering any number of max. acceleration for the print time calculation while he is not doing that for the flow rate calculation (MVS). Is my thinking correct?
I'd like to generate Gcodes which are generating nozzle flow rates which are really happening (independent from geometry, for sure dependent from printer accaleration capabilities)
RE: calculated MVS VS real MVS
hm, is there really no advice or hint regarding any explanation. I just try to understand how I can optimize this (basicly I try to push the extruder and motion system to its limits)
