My idea and goal is that the A axis controlling the extruder should run at a rate proportional to the absolute speed of the print nozzle over the workpiece. Simplified example: G0 X0 Y0 Z0 G92 A0 F200 G1 X100 A100 G1 Y100 A200 G1 X0 Y0 A341 ... This will put down an even amount of material along the path regardless of F speed and also handle deceleration at the corners if I am at all lucky in my thinking. The progressive A values are computed automatically by the slicer program. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
