Orbiter 2.0 configuration is wrong (in a potentially breaking things way) #272

Closed blutack closed 1 year ago

blutack commented 1 year ago

The Orbiter 2.0 configuration sets gear_ratio, but also uses the rotation_distance from the official documentation (which does not set gear_ratio).

This means that the extruder tries to push 7.5 times as much flow as it should. As the orbiter is very good at gripping plastic and can exert a pretty serious amount of force the massively overloaded hotend will try and separate from the mount (in my case the hotend dismantled itself and made a bit of a mess).

I patched this locally by overriding to gear_ratio: 1:1 and everything works as expected.

Thanks for klippain!

Oh this is good to know. Thank you, I'll correct it as soon as possible :)

Thanks! Let me know if you want me to test anything out.

I removed the gear_ratio in this commit: 84aba96cce4aba8f3c53fd676fd36787b3944674 It's now on the develop branch and will be released in the next Klippain release soon :)
