fixing a twisted frame that doesn't budge - Vcore 3.1 300

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7ZTq2dDTkM Hi! first of all, I've watched this famous video about the topic: I'm trying to fix a slightly twisted frame on my printer, and considering what's in the video and my current mesh I tried doing the following: 1- tapping on A to push it down 2- trying to push B up...

V-Core 1.3 500

Should I just live with this or can anything be done? I think a little bit of this is the gantry sagging: Max [168.3, 20.0] 0.229 mm Min [465.0, 240.0] -0.454 mm Range 0.683 mm...

VC4 500 IDEX

I am trying to get my bed as flat as possible. After working on both corners this is my best try at this moment. Is this ok for a 500 IDEX or does anyone have tips to achieve a better result? Heightmap is generated with a cold bed, probe is a beacon.

Bed bowed along Y axis

I followed the general advice to adjust the gantry and achieved a consistent level at the corners of the bed mesh. However, the Y axis looks very bowed. I have not yet put the PEI sheet onto the bed, so the meshes seen are of just the bare metal bed. Heat pad is not installed. * I tried loosening the Y axis rails and re-tightening them from the middles outwards. * I tried the same thing, but with 15 lb weights on top of the Y-axis extrusions as I re-tightened the rails; no discernable change at all. ...

VC4 IDEX 500 Bed Temp and Mesh variation

So been working on getting my bed flat and after tweaking legs and tapping the arms the rails ride on, resuqaring and then noting the bed was bent itself, I have finally got my mesh to .147mm variance. However that was with the bed cold (25c), afgter heating the bed during the PID tuning I remeasured the mesh and with a hot bed (50c) I'm looking at a .407mm bed variance. Is this much of a difference to be expected shoudl i spend more time trying to tune with a hot/warm bed?

VC500Idex bad mesh

Hi folks. First of all I have to say, that I was not able to do the initial bed mesh without the heater and magnetic tape, because I bought the bed plate used allready with heater and magnetic sheet attached. So I assembled the whole printer and did the mesh leveling with heater and sheet allready attached, but the result is pretty bad, as you can see in the screenshot. I tried to optimize, but I am struggeling a bit with that. For example, I lowered the back left joint of the frame nearly 3mm, but the result of the bed mesh was decreasing just by 0,15mm or so....

V-Core 4 - 300 - What is an acceptable range?

Hello guys, currently preparing my V-Core 4 - 300 and I'm stuck at the bed mesh. In general no big topic but I need some advises from you. 1. What is an acceptable range for a 300 mm bed? 2. I'm fighting a bit with the lower dip in the mesh. Do I have to unscrew the Back Panel as well move it further down? 3. I have those waves in the bed. Are my Y-rails screwed too tight or from what does this com?...

Commissioning Mesh - race to the top

I am working on meshing my cold bed before putting the heater on it, and I seem to be racing to the top with my left and right front corners. When i start, I am pretty much on the same plane with A,B, and D corners (FL, FR, BL) as well as rear middle probe point, with the C (BR) corner off by anywhere from -.4 to -.7.
If I make even a slight adjustment to the B corner to bring it up a tad, then then next mesh shows, the D corner off by -.4 to -.7. And I just seem to keep racing to bring both corner up and up and up....

Mesh question, unconventional printer use

Hi, my questions remain unanswered in other forums, so I try my luck here. I am using a core 3.1 for research purposes with a room temperature liquid metal, self made nozzles and no heating, but thats not so important for the issue. The problem is i am printing on a soft polymer and it needs to be as flat as possible. I am only printing a single layer. Micrometer deviations, so I was thinking if I bed mesh the soft surface before the print it can adjust for that, but its not properly working (I can attach a mesh of the soft surface later)...

Leveling a warped Bed Mesh Vcore4 500mm

Hi, I am new to Ratrig machines and I am trying to remove the warp from my gantry following the manual and tips I found here. I have moved feet up and down to get as close as I could and then I loosened the fasteners on the gantry and tweaked it until I got to this mesh, my best so far. I started from a 1.3mm deviation. My brother assembled the frame and I was not there. Do I need to disasemble and reasemble or is there more I can tweak first?

can/should I try to improve this with kapton tape?

Since replacing the Eva 3 with the RR Toolhead and using a beacon probe, I find that the z offset is tuned well for the center of my bed but closer to the edges it doesn't stick. In particular, I noticed this when attempting to do an EM calibration (with the 9 blocks) for a new filament. I thought maybe I could improve my mesh with a little bit of kapton tape. Good idea? Bad idea? (with the 9 blocks).

Vcore 3.1 400 after beacon configuration

Z-tilt done several times yet the bed mesh looks like Z1 is off by 1mm. BEACON_CREATE_SCAN_COMPENSATION_MESH created the contact bed mesh profile which looks identical. I rotated the build plate by 90 deg and it's still the same (pictured). I verified the stepper motors via buzz as well.

2 level mesh V-Core 4 - 400 - IDEX

Dears, I am puzzled from this bed mesh on a V-Core 4 400 IDEX. I don't know where to start because of this odd shape, on the Y axis I think... I found no similar references....

Vcore 4 IDEX 500mm bed banana...

Just finally got my printer together, imo it was all square when building. Was built on a glass table and measured corner to corner where possible. I've done everything up to BEACON_RATOS_CALIBRATE then scanned the bed. I see a lot of people with a similar problem but this seemed like the worst. Not sure what to do 😦...
