E Steps and ratio?

General Discussion

Hello!

found for my new BIUQ Extruder H2 this description

932 steps/mm at 16 segments (further correction required)

how can I setup the config of the spider v2.2 ?

[extruder]
step_pin: PD5
dir_pin: PD6 # Tronxy !PD6 BQ PD6
enable_pin: !PD4
microsteps: 32 -->> 16?
rotation_distance: 23.89816 #22.478 # Titan Extruder Clone Rotation Distance BQ ?

THX! for help

Read the entire article. In brief:

  • Convert the esteps to rotation_distance as detailed in the link above, using 16 microsteps
  • rotation_distance in Klipper is then independent from microsteps, so you can just keep 32 as per your current config

Gear ratio is 7:1

[extruder]
gear_ratio: 7:1 # Titan Extruder Clone Gear Ratio 66:22    BQ 7:1

is that fine?

by measuring driving the filament 100mm, the ratio is 10.7

gear_ratio: 7:1 # Titan Extruder Clone Gear Ratio 66:22    BQ 7:1

Iam fine with these settings, or do I have to check more?

about the calculation of the rotation_distance

rotation_distance = <full_steps_per_rotation> * / <steps_per_mm>

rotation_distance = 932 * 16 / ? → how do I get this value?

found in the description:

circumference of extrusion wheel: 24,5mm

24,5*3,1415/7=10,99525

  • Kick out gear_ratio
  • Use rotation_distance = <full_steps_per_rotation> * <microsteps> / <steps_per_mm> = 200*16/932 = 3.433 as rotation_distance
  • Fine tune rotation_distance as per Rotation distance - Klipper documentation
