Adhesion reliability
- Maximum first layer speed is 50mm/s to improve adhesion reliability and bottom layer quality for all materials
PVA adhesion
Use the PVA and BAM build plate and volume temperature when they are used as support material. The combi PLA/PVA will now have a 60C build plate temp. iso 55C to improve PVA adhesion.
Note: Adding an outer brim did not seem to help much, so did not add it
Holes in walls PETG
- Unretract speed from 45mm/s to 15mm/s to reduce bubbles in the walls
Print quality PC and CPE+
- Reduce retract length to prevent air capture during unretracts
- Inner wall before outer wall to place any gas bubbles in the inner wall for PC
- Inner wall speed equal to outer wall speed to prevent flow jumps for PC
- Lowered the flow rate to 95% for PC to prevent over extrusion and pressure build up
- Enable alternating wall to reduce warping stress
- 10C higher nozzle temperature (PC:290C, CPE+: 280C) to remelt the line below
- Keep initial and final temperature the same to prevent oozing
- 5C higher bed temperature (PC:115C, CPE+: 115C) to increase bed adhesion
- Chamber temperature to 50C (max. value S line)
- Enable a brim to reduce warping
Dimensional accuracy
- Increase xy_offset from -0.02 to +0.05mm to compensate
Prevent prime tower breaking
- Reduce prime tower speed to 50mm/s
- Reduce prime tower jerk to 2000mm/s3
- Increased minimum purge volume from 10 to 20mm3 for PVA (not for the other materials did not seem to work for them)
- Lower PVA initial and final temperatures to 215 and 210 resp.
Oozing during nozzle switches
- Set enable cool_during_extruder_switch to “all fans”
- Lower PVA initial and final temperatures to 215 and 210 resp.
Tree support improvements
- Decrease max. branch angle from 60 to 50 to prevent branches to overhang too much. Set preferred to 35 degree
- Increase Branch diameter from 5 to 8mm to get sturdier branches
Better thin wall structures
Increase the wall and skin thickness from 3 to 4 line widths for the Engineering intent to improve the print quality of thin walled injection molded like models.
Removing AA+0.6 core for the S line machines
Some speed values were set to zero accientally,
these updates ensure that all speed params have
non zero values.
Also, I noticed some temperatures were not correct.
I added a few changes to correct layer_0, initial,
and final print temperature values.
The default print temp is still not correct, I will
submit another commit for this.

This commit corrects the filenames in the previous
commit. Profiles with 0.27 layer height had "0.3"
in the filename. Now they are correctly named as
0.27.
PP-561
Enable PLA and TPLA at 0.27 layer height via
Balanced & Draft mode options.
Draft mode has higher acceleration values, and
adjusted overhang settings. Also additional minor
settings changes such as first layer height, and
initial cooling fan.
PP-561
Add definition for Replicator+, along
with three extruders: SE+, SE+ Tough,
and SE+ Experimental.
Add Replicator+ settings for PLA & TPLA.
These are similar to Method settings,
with some first layer adjustments.
PP-538
Add PC-ABS & PC-ABS-FR intent and quality files
for Method X & Method XL. These materials pair with
1C, 1XA and Labs extruders.
Exclude PC-ABS and PC-ABS-FR from sketch printers
and Method.
PP-550
* The settings used in the Visual intent profile improve the roof quality
* Settings include temp adjustments, line widths, small features, hole, roof accel & speed
* These apply to PLA & TPLA
* all of the visual intents are marked as experimental for Cura 5.10
PP-554
These intent modes were tuned by Eric MacNeil. The jerk &
accel values will be converted into a accel_config by the
Makerbot writer plugin, and the Method firmware will interpret
these values for each path.
The self support speed settings were unchanged from the previous
defaults, but the model speed was increased for ABSR, PLA & TPLA.
