I have most of the parts to do this sitting at my desk at work 🙄 I should order the rest and put them together finally...this is probably one of the best servo printer videos I have seen yet. The rest are usually show-off shorts.

So awesome! Such great info

Very nice! Is it possible that you share your settings for the printer.cfg and the controller for the motors too?

Since 5 Years i'm Waiting for these Servos to be used in 3D Printers. With an very good Heater it must be a Thunderstorm SpeedBenchy Run...

I used ClearPath steppers in my CNC build. Love em. Been wanting to know how well they'd work in a 3d printer and if they would indeed be silent. Future project I guess. =)

As always, an awesome video, thank you for pushing the boundaries and sharing it with the community. Could you share your initial impressions about using the servos - mainly if you think it's worth it in terms of money/hassle? I've always wondered why there aren't almost any companies using servos in 3d printers. I have a set of hybrid servo-steppers that I bought for my mpcnc build, but always wanted to try proper servo's on my large format 3d printer.

What servo stepper hybrids are there? And you use

Is this something you plan to revisit now that hot ends keep up?

So what top speed and average speed were these examples printing? What cubic mm/sec was the hot end at? Amazing work, thanks for sharing

even if your board doesnt output 5v signal say 3v like the octopus board im using with servos you can run your step/dir signals to the - port and run a constant 5v supply from a 5v header to the + step/dir say on a jmc or stepperonline motor. not sure about the clearpath also can't forget about adding the pulse width line into your klipper config to prevent any weird issues that resemble missed steps

Hey can you elaborate on the "pulse width line". I got integrated servo motors to work with Marlin, but moving to Klipper they don't seem to be behaving the same. Thanks

Do u know id it Is possible to use those seevi with klipper and raspberry? I'm also curious about the artifacts you indicate in the video description, what kind of artifacts?

I hope that you revisit Servos, not much good info on youtube now that Vez has gone back to steppers. I am finding Odrive to be a bit confusing as well.

So quiet compared to steppers!!! Too bad these things are CRAZY expensive compared to steppers.

When you mention print artifacts on flat surfaces, are you referring to something similar to VFAs on stepper motors? Would you still recommend these over something like the LDO 2405?

I think he is referring to the ripple effect caused by the tooth profile on the belt. aka the clearpaths have more consistent movement than steppers making the artifact more prevalent. Nearly every printer that is extremely well-tuned will have this artifact, its a ripple that you cant feel, and barely see with the same pitch of the belt profile.

I think the artifact that are still visible are from the belts and small pully bearings, facets from the STL (even with arc welder enabled) and the molted plastic consistency.

Awesome video. Did you tune all servos at the same time, or did you tune each one seperatly? I got a relatively strong wobble on x and y motion and currently try to figure out the problem.

I tuned each motor separately on my CoreXY. I clamped the Belt from the unused servo to lock the system in place.

This is very old footage that is simply assembled together to show the installation. I always wanted to do a full review and post the results under the MirageC channel but never got to it. So I just released this small video here.

It looks amazing, but is printing at this speed even a good idea for getting a quality part? I would think that the layer adheasion would suck a lot.

Hello, I'm currently experimenting with the clearpath motors. Have you got the engines running regarding the M569 T parameters and tuning? I would be very grateful for an exchange.

I mainly ran them using Klipper. RRF had issues to keep up with the amount of steps per second. My M569 was: M569 P5 R0 T2:2:2:2 S0 You can get my servo tuning files here: github.com/MirageC79/HevORT/tree/master/HD/ClearPath_Servos

Awesome! What top speeds did you manage to reach with the servos?

@@HevORT What are the artifacts on flat surfaces you were talking about caused by?

You say that the high resolution models create artifacts on flat surface. I have these motors (2310s) and the same PSU. and they create waves. I feel I have tested everything. Your prints looks much better. Can you share you duet Timings? (Taa:bb:cc:dd)? I'm still using them because those wavy patterns still annoy me less then that super load NEMA mtoror chirping

​@jbergene Interesting. Thanks for the reply. I'm going to make some tests. Did you have the wave problem with your ballscrew printer?

I've been using Clearpaths on my laser cutter for years, to get the most out of them you have to perform manual tuning. The autotuning is fine but not perfect.

Ive always wondered rather than a faster and faster head .... Split the build chamber into 4 and have 4 independent hot ends that overlap. Yeah the control could be more difficult to avoid collisions byt surely that would be faster right??

I am using clearpath servos and they have a smoothing function that causes a tiny delay. If I use clearpath on one axis and stepper on the other, my small circles turn oval. This causes an issue for extrusion because the servos are slower than the extruder stepper causing stringing due to early/late retraction. I am wondering if there is a way to set a persistent fixed delay for the extruder so help sync the servo with the extruder stepper. Still not the best solution as the extruder will be slower during straight lines as the servo catches up. I wish someone makes 3D printer controller that don't use STEP/DIR and have actual path planning.
