Print Speed overide

Great work on the new release, looks great and is slicing nicely.

I am missing a few things that I hope you can address with me. I am setting up new TPU filament and I want to decrease the speed. I have duplicated the CraftTPU filament and have made adjustments but the default speed is way too fast. I could not find a speed adjustment within the filament section. When reducing the speed in the strategies to minimum which is 50% it is still too fast (TPU). I can change it on the printer but would obviously be better within the slicer. Can this be done?

Also when exporting G-Code it forgets the name of the file and names it as Exported gcode.gcode, is this a bug?

I look forward to your response.

Regards

Hi Rick,

Welcome on the forum too! We are glad to see that you started to use the Craftware Pro!

  • The most convinient way if you click on the Default Strategy >> Base Parameters >> Feed Rate >> broke the binding button (broken chain). That way you can set a constant base feedrate, and the other areas will use it with the factors (like Perimeter will use the 25% of that constant value). You can also set constant feedrates for each area too.
  • In the end, we want to entirely separate the filament, the printer and the slicer strategy from each other, so if you change the filament, only the filament properties will change, an no need to interfere with the slicer strategies. The strategy will acquire the most suitable feedrate from the filament and the printer with the help of the "Computed Draw feedrate". We are working on the filament profiles right now to fill them with correct values. This way the combination of the filament and the printer can determine the optimal draw and max feedrate.

Best Regards,

András
