If you love modifying your 3D printer, adding new features, and tweaking it to your liking, our accelerometer module for printer developers and modders will surely come in handy! With it, you can easily measure the resonance frequency of each axis and recalibrate your Input Shaper to the optimal values, ensuring your modded 3D printer operates with maximum efficiency.
Our printers come from the factory with pre-configured, optimized Input Shaper values that have been collected and fine-tuned across many of our machines. Therefore, with a standard stock printer, you won’t ever need additional tuning, as any potential improvement after recalibration would be rather insignificant.
However, some modifications, such as a mod on the Nextruder, can impact the printer’s construction to the extent that the original Input Shaper values are no longer valid. You can then easily use our accelerometer to recalibrate it. Simply plug it into the xBuddy board using the connector on the back of the MK4S 3D printer, attach it to the printhead and the heatbed, and perform a full recalibration of the Input Shaper.
Although this tool is intended for modders and developers, installing the accelerometer on the printer and using it is very easy.
