Print speed is way lower than configured
I've set all speed parameters to 100mm/s in PrusaSlicer:
After slicing, the whole print is set to 20mm/s speed.
For this ringing tower I of course need a much higher speed. How can I do that with PrusaSlicer?
Best Answer by Neophyl:
Its as I thought, its the filament cooling speeds. Just change Slow Down if Layer print time is below to 5 seconds instead of 20 and the speed jumps up to 100mm/s
Even at 100mm the volumetric is only around 8mm cubed a second.
RE: Print speed is way lower than configured
Several things could be causing it. Without a zipped up saved PS project file (File>Save Project As) .3mf we cant know for sure.
The common reasons are - volumetric flow rate, this can be set in the print or filament profiles and acts as a cap on all extrusion speeds (lowest configured value is used).
- Filament cooling settings, particularly the slow down if layer time less than xx setting. This one catches LOADS of people out.
- limits for acceleration either in machine settings or the print profile being used.
If you want further help then the project file is going to be required.

Hi, thanks for your help. I have attached the zipped up project: MyRingingTower

That solved it. Thank you 🙂
