adding beacon mesh points?

Running ratOS 202 with beacon revH Is there an easy way to add a bit to my printer cfg that will allow me to increase the resolution of my beacon bed mesh? It’s not bad as is, but I think more resolution would help. It makes an S shape which looks to me like 3x3 points. I’d like to just up this to like 20x20 or so since it’s so quick. ✌️...
Solution:
In that case, just increase the Y points. Try 100x100 if you think you need higher resolution.

Vcore 500 mesh extreme cornering

range is almost 1mm. not sure what is wrong or what to do about it. i got a new 500mm plate but the issue persisted. I don't know if replacing the magnetic sticker pad underneath will do anything. i'm trying sliding sheets of paper in

Vcore 500 bed mesh

I need some help in order to understand what part of my printer is out of whack. I have tried adjusting as much as i could but obviously its not working. Please help thank you.

vcore 300 wave

I used to get sub 0.2mm bed meshes but now I get this wave. Has anyone seen this? I already retensioned the rails and lubed them with lithium grease.

VC3.1 300 fixable without taking it apart?

Hi everyone, I recently got my hands on a used 3.1 in pretty good condition, but I am currently struggling with bed leveling: it's at 0.5mm deviation now and I'd like to make it better I TRIED FOLLOWING THE DOCUMENTATION AND THE VIDEO INSIDE IT, especially the part with the examples of gantry compensation by unscrewing 4 screws to move it (see photo), but it seems like the gantry barely moves when I do that? I tried moving my front right corner down to compensate for the rear right being low, and the results only got slightly worse when I tried doing it (from 0.3 to 0.5)....

Bed Mesh V-Core 500 tilted (Front right low, back left High 0.77 difference)

Hey, I am trying to ccorrect my bed mesh on the 500 i have. When doing a z tilt and then the mesh the front right corner is too low and prints dont adhere. Shouldn't the z tilt solve that for me? Am I missing something else? I've added a picture to show my mesh....
Solution:
oh, it is creeping? double and triple-check your couplers from the z motor shafts to the lifting screws, make sure the set screws are tight

my mesh is bad...

Hello. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7ZTq2dDTkM I tried to fix my printer according to the video here. Then, after meshing, the graph appeared like this. What do you think is the problem?

Enclosed Vcore 3.1 500, any pointers?

This is the best mesh I've had in the past couple of days since building the printer. Have my frame straightened to the best of my ability without taking it all apart again, tried taking out the bowing by loosening the gantry rail and retightening it according to the well known video. I don't know if I can get it any better given the size, of if I'm safe with this mesh.

First Layer Problem with Adaptive_Mesh

Hello. When I use adaptive mesh, I have problems with the first layer. But don't use it, I don't have any problems when I use normal bed_mesh. Something caught my attention, I think maybe this is the reason. As you can see in the screenshot, no matter which part I print, "PROBE_FOR_PRIMING: Probing the prime location at X: 493.0 Y: 33.0" always takes measurements from this point before meshing. Why does it always measure from X: 493.0 Y: 33.0? Görsel...

Help Please

I installed the titanium tube on my V-Core 3.1 400 and I am little perplexed with my mesh now. It was relatively flat prior to install accross x and now I have this bow. I have loosened and tightened all screws on the x rail a couple of times in order to 1.5 NM. Any thoughts? It's also a little strange that the bow is less at the front.

IMPOSSIBLE Z- OFFSET,VC 3.1 /500

I made X gantry (carbon, toolhead (vzbot), beacon from pinda, awd (tmc5160) changes. i asked a friend for help for the cfg file. then every time i bedmesh the z-offset started to change and the mesh started to come out sometimes above and sometimes below the flatness. No matter what i do, after a reboot or bedmesh the z-offset doesn't stay the same, neither does the z-tilt. i have been dealing with this for days and still can't solve it. i have gone through all the screws couplers etc. everythin...

IDEX 500 weird mesh evolution

So I have come back to my Vcore. First mesh is what I measured previsouly (March?). I cam back today to this mesh. Saw my x gantry rail was loose and it improved in some ways. Third pic is my current sitz

VC 3.1 300 first bed calibration.

Am I good to go to the next step in calibration or does this need frame tweaking before i add the heater etc?

VC3.1 Enclosed 400

So afaik i have to move the extrusion up at the fron but that didnt rly help so im posting it here.Yes i have watched the video for squaring the vc3.Side note i bought the toro tube and apparently bimetal effect is going crazy as now i dont print abs only petg so i have only the side panels on

start G-code for PAM

I switched PCs and I'm trying to rebuild my Superslicer profile because I forgot to port it from the old PC. Can someone remind me what start Gcode to use when enabling PAM as part of the print sequence?

Bed Mesh taco with some obvious inflection from alignment

Rebuilding a used Rat Rig 300 that the prior owner never quite got to work right. And I'm new to Rat Rigs, which isn't making this easier. These graphs were taken at room temp because I'd like to get a baseline in before I start introducing heat to the alignment. Looking at the range of 0,0 to 300,0, with the little twists up and down at the end, and then the plate in the 300,300 tilting down, it's obviously I have some squaring to fix. But frankly, it seems like the things I'm trying are not really doing much. Like, I get the discrete feeling the rear Z axis isn't fully aligned, and that's what causing the twist, but I'd like to see if anyone else has any better ideas, as I think there's telltale signs that more knowledgeable people might be able to spot....
Solution:
Is perhaps best fixed with a line of KAPTOn tape

VC3.1 Enclosed 400 Back Corner Peak

Working through commissioning my VC3.1. I'm seeing a peak in the back left corner. Not sure if this range is perfectly okay, or if it's something I should work to bring down. I want to get good results, but not looking to potentially make 'good enough' worse.

Mesh not compensating in back of print volume VCORE3 300

I've recently been trying to maximize the use of my build volume, however I've been running into an issue where the entire rear section of my bed (y 150-300). is lower than the front. My heightmap seems pretty solid with a deviation of around 0.199. I'm using a Euclid probe and the repeatability is perfectly fine, offsets are set, z offset is set etc... I've been trying to find any way to correct this but from everything I see it just seems like the mesh compensation isn't working properly. ...
