3 days ago This is most likely something you'd want to post on https://forum.bambulab.com/c/bambu-lab-software/feature-requests/100 . I'm not sure if it's something OrcaSlicer can improve, I'm sure SoftFever or someone else can chime in on that. And yes, I agree. They even went the route to offset the tests to not interfere with each-other.
The sequence is usually this:
- Flow Dynamics --> Gets the K-Value and stores it into the machine look-up table.
- Flow Rate --> Uses the prior K-Value and calculates the Flow Rate relative to it.
Right now, there's the "save step" to have the user approve the K-Value via BambuStudio/OrcaSlicer's interface. During that time, the machine treats it as an end-of-print and cooling off. I think for a combined test, they'd want to have that "approval" step be a PAUSE, wait for user approval via prompt (Bambu likely has to implement that) and then continue on with the newly configured K-Value, since it can be dynamically set during prints.
Is there an existing issue for this feature request?
Is your feature request related to a problem?
No, just frustrated having to do flow dynamics and flow rate calibration separately!
Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?
All
Describe the solution you'd like
Should have a full calibration option that allows calibration of flow dynamics first, then move up to do flow calibration next. This would shorten the total time from 30 minutes to just above 15 minutes! The bambu bed is plenty big enough to do 4 flow calibrations, and 4 flow dynamic calibrations all in the same session!
Describe alternatives you've considered
Always have to do one at a time which takes twice as long considering the bed leveling time a long with all the other checks it has to go through!
