Hello everyone.

I would like your feedback on the PR:

https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/8025
Which aims to improve the support of the SV06 ACE printer.
If you have volunteers here who have nozzles in 02 06 or 08 I would like your feedback on the tests.
Don't hesitate to write here to centralize the feedback and improve this PR.

Best Regards

Hi, @heady peak You can try new options ?

Hey! I saw your PR to enable multiple bed types for the SV06 ACE. I'm just curious, did you find third-party beds that fit well, including the nozzle wiping area? (Of course a standard 235x235 bed will fit, but with nowhere for the nozzle to wipe, I suspect homing and bed leveling won't go so well.)

There was some discussion on the Sovol forums where I was looking for a smooth PEI bed, but the best we could think was turning an Ender 3 bed with a big handle around. 😛 Not ideal.

I guess maybe an A1 bed would be the right shape, but I thought it was too big to fit along the X axis. Or maybe not?

#

Also, I finally got my nozzle kit, so I can test the other nozzle sizes "soon" if you're still looking for feedback. It may be some time as things are quite busy at the moment, though. 😅

Hey! Thanks again for all your work on the ACE profiles!

I have some other tweaks in mind I would like your thoughts on:

  1. Quality > Wall generator: Classic -> Arachne. (Arachne seems to be the default for most profiles these days, and I get better quality for small features like text with it. I think it makes sense to switch over.)

  2. Quality > Walls and surfaces > Top surface flow ratio: 0.8 -> something more than 0.9. (I guess Sovol turned this down to allow for smooth top surfaces across multiple filament types when flow and pressure advance are not tuned perfectly. But 0.8 is way too low! It really throws off any flow calibrations you do, so either you underextrude the top or overextrude the rest of the print.)

I checked on GitHub, and most profiles set top-surface flow in the 0.95-1.0 range. Nobody but the ACE sets it below 0.9. 🙂

I think it makes sense to turn this up, maybe keep 0.95 just to be "safe" (lean on the side of a little underextrusion for smooth top surfaces). What do you think?

(For myself, I have been using top-surface flow = 1.0 with "small area flow compensation" enabled using the default compensation model. But that may be a bit complex for a default profile?)
