Ctc bizer 3d printer

Decent Slicing software for CTC Bizer (Dual Extruder) - 3D Printers - Talk Manufacturing

Alessandro_Jarv September 11, 2016, 8:37am

I have a CTC Bizer (Clone of Replicator 1 Dual Extruder), everything works fine, the printer works, the issue is with the slicer.

The given SD had ReplicatorG and MakerWare. MakerWare doesn’t work, it says that the background service is not running, if I try to restart it, it simply won’t start, so no slicing at all. I also downloaded MakerBot Desktop, which seems to be the latest version of MakerWare, it simply doesn’t slice files over a certain size. I tried to print the 10MB 3DBenchy.stl from http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:763622/#files - it simply won’t slice it. I have another 16MB part and it won’t slice that too. MakerBot Desktop simply shows an empty view in the “Preview” screen, stating there are 0 layers and exports a 0B (empty) x3g file. Smaller files get sliced without issues, but top and bottom layer are underextruded, so it leaves giant holes in the prints. Also, MakerBot Desktop leaves gaps between the filling and the shell.

I also tried Cura and Slic3r post-processing gcode files with ReplicatorG or GPX in order to make x3g files out of them (as that printer doesn’t read plain gcode files), I can’t get it to work, if I print something, the build plate goes down and down, then it starts vibrating as soon as it reachs the printer ground (like if it’s trying to go even further down).

I’m attaching some pictures of the Makerbot Desktop with the 3DBenchy and empty preview, and also two photos of the CTC Bizer spool holder I tried to print (which show underextrusion - so gaps of course - and gaps between shell and infill).

Is there anyone who can help?

Thank you

Spend the money on simplify 3d. It’s the best thing you’re going to do. Also, update to sailfish before you burn out your board. After that look online for mod for ctc and do the main ones to get much nicer prints.

I am using S3d also and even though it is for pay it was worth it to me. I can’t really comment of the other slicers since I have not used them really. RepG a bit and it was ok for what it is.

Alessandro_Jarv September 11, 2016, 4:05pm

Does Simplify3D save to x3g? I already have Sailfish 7.7, and I was also wondering: is there any firmware capable of reading the standard gcode?

I hear lots of people telling to buy S3D but I use it for hobby, so spending $150 for a professional program is something I’d like to avoid, if not really necessary. Also, S3D doesn’t have a trial version, which would be really useful to test its potential before deciding to pay that amount.

Croft3r September 11, 2016, 5:09pm

I use Matter Slice (Matter Control) as my slicer. However, I agree with the other posts, if you can spend the money for simplify3d then do it. With Matter Slice you can actually connect to your printer via USB if you want or export to SD card. It allows you to export straight to x3g. When I get home later tonight, I can upload my configuration file for my printer. However, for now they have a profile for the flashforge creator pro that works just fine. My profile just has a few tweaks to work better with my printer.

To get the slicer, go to mattercontrol.com.

I had the same problem that you are having right now with my prints. Again, when I get home, I will see what I can do to help you out.

Eduardo_Garcia September 11, 2016, 5:48pm

Yes it does. I also 3d print as a hobby aND I used makerware at first with proftweak. I learned alot then after 3 month I got s3d and it’s worth the cost even for a hobbyst. I know there is no trial, but look at YouTube videos, get familiar with it from videos and make a decision.

Alessandro_Jarv September 11, 2016, 7:42pm

Thanks, I’ll wait! Do you have the same printer?

Croft3r September 11, 2016, 10:21pm

I have the same printer. However, I think I have a different version because mine is just unpainted laser cut wood and everyone else has one that is metal or painted wood. These are the settings I am using to control my printer. With this slicing software, you can use Cura, Slic3r, or Matter Slice. I use Matter Slice. I would play around the settings that I have attached. You are going to want to tune this to fit your printer better.

I have been getting some pretty good prints with these settings. You may want to change around layer height to fit what you need though. If you are trying to go for something that needs a lot of detail, try lowing the speeds of the print and increasing layer height. As for layer height. The lowest I have gone so far is 50 Microns. I have printed several prints at that quality and it is difficult to see the lines in the print.

The problem you are having is that the top faces are not closing. I have this set to 8 layers on the top and bottom and that has been working. You may be able to cut down on layers if you have a cooling fan that you can blow directly on the print. You may also want to try increasing infill to support the top layer.

With the configuration file, I need to let you know a few things. Under the Printer tab, and under Features. You can turn parts of the printer on and off. My heated build plate is currently not working so I have it turned off. If you have a heated build plate turn it on here. Also, please be careful on this screen. You may be able to do some damage to the printer on this screen.

Also, with the dual extrudes I am having some difficulty with them lining up. I think I have the offset set properly but I am not sure. The left extruder on my printer is jammed so I can’t really test it. However, I think I have the offset set properly. To change this got to the Printer tab, then to Extruder. Also, if you want to do an extended build plate with your printer, you can change that under the print area options.

If you have any problems with this file please let me know and I will help you out. To load this file you first need to add the FlashForge Creator Pro Dual printer using the add printer menu. Then click Settings & Controls, then click Options then import. This should change all your settings to match the file. Also, you will want to change your settings from Basic to Advanced to change some of the things I talked about previously.

For connecting to the printer, I can’t really help to much. I export my files to SD card and print directly from the printer. I do this because the USB connection on my printer does not work at all. So no Sailfish upgrade :(. Anyways, I have connected over USB with my M3D Micro and it works fairly well. You can set prints to email, and text you when they finish and you can monitor them online.

However, I would use this software to get you by. When you get a chance I recommend that you pickup Simplify3D. They do have a 30 day money back guarantee if you do not like the software. I agree though, I trial would give me a lot more trust in their software.

Also, here is the link to the config file. I had to put it in a zip because everywhere I uploaded it, it wanted to display as text instead of a file. Anyways, here is the link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/229079674/CTC%20Bizer%20Config.zip

You say I can use Cura too… How? As far as I know Cura is not capable of exporting x3g files… I have tried Matter Slice too, imported the model, clicked on “generate” button and a window saying “NullReferenceException” popped up…

Sorry for the delay.

I am not 100% sure but I think MatterControl uses Java. Try updating your Java and see if that works. Also, the MatterControl community is very helpful. They can help you get it running if you keep having problems.

Also, for Cura you can generate the files in GCode then use ReplicatorG to convert it to x3g. However, I have never got this to work. Maybe you will have better luck.

When I mentioned Cura and Slic3r. I meant that MatterControl comes packaged with three slicing engines. Cura, Slic3r, and MatterSlice. Got into the settings of your printer, then click options, then you can change the slice engine there. Then your options will change to suite the engine.

Also, you can export x3g from Cura with a plugin but I can not find the plugin. I have found something that works along side Cura to convert Gcode to x3g but I have never got any of that to work.

No, a NullReferenceException comes from a . NET application, Java has a similar one but it’s called NullPointerException. I already have .NET up to date. I never got gcode to x3g conversion to work neither, as I stated in the post.

For the error: I checked the settings, fill density was set at 0.3%, I changed it to 15% and it sliced, I think this was the messy option. I also found the setting to use CuraEngine to slice, I’m trying it now Thank you! Anyway, I think we have the same printer, I have the wood one too.

Weird thing. I tried to slice the same model with Cura and MatterControl using CuraEngine.

Cura settings:

50mm/s print speed

50mm/s infill speed

30mm/s outer wall speed

40mm/s inner wall speed

15mm/s bottom layer speed

20% infill

MatterControl settings:

130mm/s infill speed

130mm/s inside perimeters

120mm/s outside perimeters

150mm/s travel speed

15mm/s first layer speed

20% infill

Cura says it takes 1 hour for the model to print (with lower speeds than MatterControl)

MatterControl (with CuraEngine) says it takes 2:41 hours to print - with significantly higher speeds.

Something is going wrong here, is it ignoring my settings??

I am going to agree with the others here that simplify3d is the answer to all your ills. It is the best investment you can make in your printer.

That being said, it is so easy to put my hand in your pocket and tell you to spend the money. But sometimes folks are just not in a position to do so.

As such, I would recommend flashforges flashprint as an alternative. It will get you good prints, but not give you the control of s3d in getting to great prints.

It is free.

I can’t help with everything else, but are you using makerware on ubuntu 16. 10 by any chance? I was getting the same background service issue and after emailing makerbot they said that they support 16.04 LTS but not 16.10. Not a great help, but I have the same issue. Been dual booting into windows just for it.

3D food printer from Moscow scientists prints chocolate, cakes and even nuggets

A 3D food printer with a system of "smart" recipes that prints food products with specified properties was created by scientists from the Moscow State University of Food Production (MGUPP). The new device consists of 99% domestic components and can be used to design vending machines that print products according to the client's order. The 3D printer already prints with dough and chocolate, and in the future it will be able to produce even meat products - nuggets, for example, have already been successfully obtained.

chocolate chess

One of the goals of developing a 3D food printer was to create food rich in vitamins, micronutrients and antioxidants that would be a healthy alternative to traditional meals.

“Today, many are deficient in nutrients and micronutrients that can be replenished with elements in chemical form, but eating foods fortified with them contributes to better absorption. The main goal of creating a food printer was the ability to produce personalized functional products using a system of “smart” recipes, which will be like instructions for the printer,” says Aleksey Kuchumov, Vice-Rector for Research and Development of MGUPP.

The main difference between the development of MGUPP scientists and existing 3D printers is the units modified for the tasks of the food industry. The unique technology allows you to take a device for printing with plastic and upgrade it for printing with food raw materials.

“We made one unique extruder (a nozzle through which the raw material exits) of a revolving type. Inside it is a drum into which various raw materials are fed, which allows you to speed up the production process and use fewer parts. This is also our innovation - the use of one powerful drum extruder, into which various raw materials are fed under different pressures and temperatures, ”notes Alexey Kuchumov.

The development of MGUPP scientists allows you to make a 3D printer of any size and for any task, as well as increase the print area to one and a half meters, which is 1.2 meters more than existing analogues.

3D printer

In addition, the new device provides the ability to produce artificial meat using bioprinting technology. At the same time, the printer performs the function of a freezer - a refrigerator, and with different setting temperatures. It is designed in such a way that the necessary climatic environment will be formed for each type of raw material: its own temperature, its own humidity, etc. Among other things, a laboratory for the production of “cultured” meat is being opened together with 3D Bioprinting Solutions.

“The bioprinter prints a special plant-based substrate, on which live cells taken painlessly from animals are applied. This device prints according to a given digital model, using special nozzles - devices that allow you to print both cellular material and plant fibers. Such meat can be called “ethical”, and it will be in demand on the market,” comments Alexey Kuchumov.

As 3D Bioprinting Solutions Managing Partner Yousef Hesuani, 3D Bioprinting Solutions Managing Partner, added: “At this stage, it is possible to obtain the structure and organoleptic properties of the product similar to a natural product. The technology of printing with plant fibers followed by the application of a cell culture to the printed fibers has been developed, and special food bioprinters have been developed that allow automating the printing process. For example, the nuggets obtained using this technology were prepared according to a special recipe.”

Today, the MGUPP 3D-farm operates continuously, students and graduate students independently assemble printers and debug printing with food raw materials and living cells. The development is carried out within the framework of the MGUPP strategic project "Additive Technologies and Ingredients of the FoodNet Market" under the program of the Russian Ministry of Education and Science "Priority 2030" within the framework of the national project "Science and Universities".

Still have questions?

Discovery 3D Printer solutions can be consulted by our experts free of charge.

What are the kinematics and mechanics of the Discovery equipment?

In this respect, all Discovery equipment differs from budget additive solutions. The products are based on the kinematic diagram of a CNC machine. Gears, pulleys, lead screws, no belts. HIVIN rail guides are used. The entire structure is made with European quality from advanced products in the machine tool industry.

What consumables can be used with Discovery products?

Any material (other than PEEK and PEKK) sold in bars or pellets. First of all, thanks to the heating of the table to 175 ° C and vacuum fixation, as well as due to the installed nozzles made of hardened steel.

How is such a large print platform heated?

A matrix of separate equidistant heaters is built into the platform from the bottom side; these modules provide uniform heating of the surface of the printing platform. The maximum recorded temperature difference over the entire area is 3°C.

How to speed up printing on such large dimensions?

There is a special method for properly emptying the internal volume, which you can learn more about from our technical experts. This procedure will have very little effect on the strength and elasticity of the print object, but will still reduce the time by up to 60%.
It is important to consider that with a large range of large-sized products, it is better to consider Super Discovery 3D Printer or Super Discovery 3D Printer Workstation with a capacity of up to 11 kg / h (depending on the material used).

Is it possible to upgrade this equipment for a specific enterprise?

Yes. Most of the Discovery machines can be upgraded for a specific production project. This is possible, since the equipment was designed for the tasks of Production 4.0, and our specialists will help to integrate it correctly.

What is the warranty for this equipment?

24 months, which is 1.5 - 2 times more than analogues from Europe, Russia and China. Permanent customer support is provided directly by the vendor or iQB Technologies specialists.

How to get a high quality product so that it can be handed over as a final product?

3D printing is basically a high quality preform process.
