Hi,
I have an ordbot Hadron with a Panucatt X3 board and BFB extruder with fan shroud/adapter of my own design. After some time of calibrating and adjusting, it is now going fine. I am using ABS only with a ceramic 3mm thick build platform. I spray this with some quick dry gloss enamel from a can before a print. The platform only needs to be heated up once to about 50deg C. This is not critical though. I get no corner lift even when printing large flat plates. When I take the part off, the enamel under the part comes off with it. Just spraying another whiff of paint onto this spot before the next print is all I need to do. Good bye and good riddance, Kaptone tape.
I do have a problem though. When I print, the part comes out mirrored (referenced to Y axis). I am using Kisslicer and Repetier with Marlin firmware. If I use Pronterface instead, the same thing happens though. The part appears the correct way around in Repetier, but it is automatically mirrored. So far I have tried to change the printer setting in Repetier, by defining the y xais home position as max instead of min, but this made no difference. Any help to sort this out would be appreciated.
BTW, if I use slic3r instead of Kisslicer, the same thing happens.
Thanks,
