Two Cones Unique Performance Test
I designed this simple test to diagnose a few problems with a MakerFarm Prusa i3, but it should prove useful in almost any tuning scenario.
Targeted Performance Areas:
- Print consistency through layer area reduction
- Clean multi-object traveling
- Inter-object precision (not melting the cones together)
- The ability to form vertical points (as sharp as possible)
- Warping; the edges should be straight (this can help balance bed vs. extruder vs. room temperatures)
Personal/Typical Guidelines
(remember, it's your test!)
Constants may be:
A. Layer height
B. Infill settings
C. Filament (per tune)
Independents can be:
A. Location on print plate
B. Temperature
C. Speed
D. Scaling percentage of model
E. Motor settings and extrusion settings
That's all I have to say!
Get to tuning :D
