Hello everyone!
I am dealing with a slightly warped print bed. Smaller prints are no problem and come out absolutely perfect (for me), but as the prints get larger and go near the sides of the printbed they won’t stick very good, because the bed is a bit more away from the nozzle on all sides, causing my prints to warp or even fall off the printbed.
So now I am thinking about upgrading my Voxelab Aquila with a BLTouch (or similar) to get rid of that problem. So far I read you could use Voxelab‘s Aquila X2 BLTouch Firmware with the standard Aquila?! Is that true? Does someone here know it or already upgraded one? Or maybe have a link to a tutorial?
Any help appreciated! Thanks in advance :)
Some additional information:
I have a standard Voxelab Aquila with N32 Board. Upgraded already to DirectDrive and use it with a raspberry running Octoprint.
I own an Ender and installed alternative firmware (mriscoc professional firmware) which gives me a feature to probe the bed on multiple points and store this mesh in memory.
Now the firmware ‘knows’ about all the holes and hills on the bed and compensates for it.
You want to look for terms like bed mesh leveling, when you’ve got a probe attached, this technique can really help.
And don’t forget to check if you have to tell your printer to use the saved mesh. I had to add a line to my start g-code. (ender 3 s1; M420 S1) There are also g-codes that can deactivate it again.
