Rostock V3 - Accel probing auto calibration?

Post by dajay23D »

Hello,

I got an email yesterday from MatterHackers advertising the new Rostock Max V3 that's available(pre-order). Since I haven't been on SeeMeCNC for awhile, I click on the page to see the new features. I quickly noticed; "Includes Accel probing feature for easy and accurate automatic bed leveling. This allows you to calibrate your printer with a single click!"
Has anyone got this or tried this, yet? If so, is it working and working well? Waiting to upgrade my V2 if this works well! Excited!

Here's the post: https://www.matterhackers.com/store/pri ... mplete-kit

They just started shipping full v3 gets yesterday so i do not think anyone has one yet.


The eris also has accelerometer auto calibration... I think that has gotten mixed reviews, but they have made some changes to it since then and the rostocks larger size lends itself to working better with the probe.. So they say...

I'm interested on impressions aswell :) But we've probably got about a week before anyone who wasn't given on for free has it built and is able to give feedback..

thanks for the reply! I actually thought the developers or Gene would have some insight, but maybe not yet. I'm kind of surprised no one else has used it. I figured someone has to have some connections to get the V3 early. :)

Could this be printed in ABS you think? ABS is a lot easer to sand that PLA.... I seen there FAQ but it just says they only tried it with PLA....

Will they be offering a v2-v3 conversion? Auto level and calibration sounds great. Also does anyone know if the accelerometer is in the hot end or will I be able to keep the ED3 i just installed?
