Help with a delta 3d printer
Hi,
I just finished the build of a kossel xl 3d printer and i have done the paper test and adjusted the bed so that its level and calibrated to the center of the bed, so that the point 0,0,0 is a piece of papers width from the center of the bed. All the electronics work on the printer work as far as i can tell, i can move each axis, heat the hotend and bed, and move the extruder accurately (calibrated).
I tried my first couple of prints but i couldn't get it to work.
Im using repetier host and i load up my solidworks builds (stl) and slice it, but when i then start printing, the bed lowers to 0,0,0 and then starts moving straight towards an edge of my plate and goes past it (although my bed size limits for x and y are set correctly in marlin firmware).
Also, weirdly, the effector moves the first 90mm fine in the x and y axis when i tell it to move, but after that, the effector just keeps on moving past that point and then i have to stop it manually to stop it from damaging itself, despite the max x and y positions being set to +125mm and the min x and y positions being set to -125 (i have a 250mm diameter build plate).
Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks
