# Pellet Flow Coefficient
|
||||
|
||||
Large format printers with print volumes in the order of 1m^3 generally use pellets for printing.
|
||||
The overall tech is very similar to FDM printing.
|
||||
It is FDM printing, but instead of filaments, it uses pellets.
|
||||
|
||||
The difference here is that where filaments have a filament_diameter that is used to calculate
|
||||
the volume of filament ingested, pellets have a particular flow_coefficient that is empirically
|
||||
devised for that particular pellet.
|
||||
|
||||
pellet_flow_coefficient is basically a measure of the packing density of a particular pellet.
|
||||
Shape, material and density of an individual pellet will determine the packing density and
|
||||
the only thing that matters for 3d printing is how much of that pellet material is extruded by
|
||||
one turn of whatever feeding mehcanism/gear your printer uses. You can emperically derive that
|
||||
for your own pellets for a particular printer model.
|
||||
|
||||
We are translating the pellet_flow_coefficient into filament_diameter so that everything works just like it
|
||||
does already with very minor adjustments.
|
||||
|
||||
```math
|
||||
\text{filament\_diameter} = \sqrt{\frac{4 \times \text{pellet\_flow\_coefficient}}{\pi}}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
sqrt just makes the relationship between flow_coefficient and volume linear.
|
||||
|
||||
higher packing density -> more material extruded by single turn -> higher pellet_flow_coefficient -> treated as if a filament of larger diameter is being used
|
||||
All other calculations remain the same for slicing.

# Single Extruder Multimaterial Printing in OrcaSlicer
|
||||
|
||||
## Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
In this guide, we will explain the parameters for single extruder multimaterial printing in OrcaSlicer. The whole process and parameters are same as PrusaSlicer as OrcaSlicer is based on PrusaSlicer.
|
||||
OrcaSlicer has some additional features and minor differences though. We will explain them in this guide.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prime tower
|
||||
|
||||
The prime tower is a structure that is printed before the actual print to ensure that the nozzle is primed with the correct filament. It helps to prevent oozing and stringing during the print. The prime tower can be customized in various ways, such as its size, shape, and position.
|
||||
|
||||
## Ramming
|
||||
|
||||
Ramming is a technique used to push the filament through the nozzle to ensure that it is primed and ready for printing. It can be adjusted in terms of speed and distance to optimize the priming process.
|
||||
|
||||
## Manual filament change
|
||||
|
||||
Manual filament change is a feature that allows the user to change the filament during the print. This can be useful for multi-material prints or when changing colors. The user can specify the position and timing of the filament change, as well as the speed and distance of the ramming process.

# Auxiliary Fan
|
||||
|
||||
OrcaSlicer uses `M106 P#` / `M107 P#` to control any fans managed by the slicer.
|
||||
|
||||
- `P0`: part cooling fan (default layer fan)
|
||||
- `P1` (if present): an additional fan
|
||||
- `P2`: often used as Aux / CPAP / Booster
|
||||
- `P3` (and higher): sometimes Exhaust / Enclosure, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
With Klipper you can create macros that translate both the OrcaSlicer numeric fan index `P` and **human‑readable names** for your physical fans. This keeps compatibility with generated G‑code (M106 P0 / M106 P2 …) while letting you address fans by name internally.
|
||||
|
||||
> [!WARNING]
|
||||
> Adjust pin names and parameters (power, cycle_time, etc.) to match your hardware.

## Simple option (indexes only → fan0, fan2, fan3)
|

This is the original basic example where the `P` index is concatenated (`fan0`, `fan2`, `fan3`). Use it if you don't need custom names:
|
||||
|
||||
```ini
|
||||

## Advanced option (Index ⇄ Name mapping)
|
||||
|

|
||||
### Quick customization
|
||||
|
||||
1. Add / remove entries in `fan_map` to reflect the indexes the slicer may use.
|
||||
2. Keep comments like `# fan X OrcaSlicer` next to each `[fan_generic]` for easy correlation.
|
||||
3. Tune `max_power`, `off_below`, `cycle_time` according to fan type (CPAP blower vs axial exhaust).
|
||||
|
||||
### Usage
|
||||
|
||||
- From OrcaSlicer: `M106 P0 S255` (100% CPAP), `M106 P3 S128` (~50% EXHAUST).
|
||||
- Turn one off: `M107 P3`. Turn all off: `M107`.
|
||||
- You can still manually use `SET_FAN_SPEED FAN=CPAP SPEED=0.7` in the Klipper console.

||||

# Chamber Temperature Control
|
||||
|
||||
OrcaSlicer use `M141/M191` command to control active chamber heater.
|
||||
|
||||
If your Filament's `Activate temperature control` and your printer `Support control chamber temperature` option are checked , OrcaSlicer will insert `M191` command at the beginning of the gcode (before `Machine G-code`).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
> [!NOTE]
|
||||
> If the machine is equipped with an auxiliary fan, OrcaSlicer will automatically activate the fan during the heating period to help circulate air in the chamber.
|
||||
|
||||
## Using Chamber Temperature Variables in Machine G-code
|
||||
|
||||
You can use chamber temperature variables in your `Machine G-code` to control the chamber temperature manually, if desired:
|
||||
|
||||
- To set the chamber temperature to the value specified for the first filament:
|
||||
```gcode
|
||||
M191 S{chamber_temperature[0]}
|
||||
```
|
||||
- To set the chamber temperature to the highest value specified across all filaments:
|
||||
```gcode
|
||||
M191 S{overall_chamber_temperature}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Klipper
|
||||
|
||||

||||

Enable this option if machine has auxiliary part cooling fan. G-code command: M106 P2 S(0-255).
|

### Auxiliary Fan
|
||||
|
||||
OrcaSlicer uses `M106 P#` / `M107 P#` to control any fans managed by the slicer.
|
||||
|
||||
- `P0`: part cooling fan (default layer fan)
|
||||
- `P1` (if present): an additional fan
|
||||
- `P2`: often used as Aux / CPAP / Booster
|
||||
- `P3` (and higher): sometimes Exhaust / Enclosure, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
With Klipper you can create macros that translate both the OrcaSlicer numeric fan index `P` and **human‑readable names** for your physical fans. This keeps compatibility with generated G‑code (M106 P0 / M106 P2 …) while letting you address fans by name internally.

|
||||
##### Quick customization
|
||||
|
||||
1. Add / remove entries in `fan_map` to reflect the indexes the slicer may use.
|
||||
2. Keep comments like `# fan X OrcaSlicer` next to each `[fan_generic]` for easy correlation.
|
||||
3. Tune `max_power`, `off_below`, `cycle_time` according to fan type (CPAP blower vs axial exhaust).
|
||||
|
||||
##### Usage
|
||||
|
||||
- From OrcaSlicer: `M106 P0 S255` (100% CPAP), `M106 P3 S128` (~50% EXHAUST).
|
||||
- Turn one off: `M107 P3`. Turn all off: `M107`.
|
||||
- You can still manually use `SET_FAN_SPEED FAN=CPAP SPEED=0.7` in the Klipper console.

Pick the variant that best fits your workflow; the advanced version provides extra clarity and flexibility while remaining fully compatible with standard OrcaSlicer G-code output.
|
||||
|
||||
## Support controlling chamber temperature
|
||||
|
||||
OrcaSlicer use `M141/M191` command to control active chamber heater.
|
||||
|
||||
If your Filament's `Activate temperature control` and your printer `Support control chamber temperature` option are checked , OrcaSlicer will insert `M191` command at the beginning of the gcode (before `Machine G-code`).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
> [!NOTE]
|
||||
> If the machine is equipped with an auxiliary fan, OrcaSlicer will automatically activate the fan during the heating period to help circulate air in the chamber.
|
||||
|
||||
### Using Chamber Temperature Variables in Machine G-code
|
||||
|
||||
You can use chamber temperature variables in your `Machine G-code` to control the chamber temperature manually, if desired:
|
||||
|
||||
- To set the chamber temperature to the value specified for the first filament:
|
||||
```gcode
|
||||
M191 S{chamber_temperature[0]}
|
||||
```
|
||||
- To set the chamber temperature to the highest value specified across all filaments:
|
||||
```gcode
|
||||
M191 S{overall_chamber_temperature}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Klipper Chamber Temperature
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using Klipper, you can define these macros to control the active chamber heater.
|
||||
Bellow is a reference configuration for Klipper.

Air Filtration/Exhaust Fan Control in OrcaSlicer.
|
||||
OrcaSlicer use `M106 P3` command to control air-filtration/exhaust fan.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using Klipper, you can define a `M106` macro to control both the normal part cooling fan, auxiliary fan, and exhaust fan.

`Bed mesh min`: This option sets the min point for the allowed bed mesh area. Due to the probe's XY offset, most printers are unable to probe the entire bed. To ensure the probe point does not go outside the bed area, the minimum and maximum points of the bed mesh should be set appropriately. OrcaSlicer ensures that adaptive_bed_mesh_min/adaptive_bed_mesh_max values do not exceed these min/max points. This information can usually be obtained from your printer manufacturer. The default setting is (-99999, -99999), which means there are no limits, thus allowing probing across the entire bed.

## Printer structure

||||
The physical arrangement and components of a printing device.
|
||||
|
||||
## G-code flavor
|
||||
|
||||
What kind of G-code the printer is compatible with.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pellet Modded Printer
|
||||
|
||||
Enable this option if your printer uses pellets instead of filaments.
|
||||
Large format printers with print volumes in the order of 1m^3 generally use pellets for printing.
|
||||
The overall tech is very similar to FDM printing.
|
||||
It is FDM printing, but instead of filaments, it uses pellets.
|
||||
|
||||
The difference here is that where filaments have a filament_diameter that is used to calculate the volume of filament ingested, pellets have a particular flow_coefficient that is empirically devised for that particular pellet.
|
||||
|
||||
pellet_flow_coefficient is basically a measure of the packing density of a particular pellet.
|
||||
Shape, material and density of an individual pellet will determine the packing density and the only thing that matters for 3d printing is how much of that pellet material is extruded by one turn of whatever feeding mehcanism/gear your printer uses. You can emperically derive that for your own pellets for a particular printer model.
|
||||
|
||||
We are translating the pellet_flow_coefficient into filament_diameter so that everything works just like it does already with very minor adjustments.
|
||||
|
||||
```math
|
||||
\text{filament\_diameter} = \sqrt{\frac{4 \times \text{pellet\_flow\_coefficient}}{\pi}}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
sqrt just makes the relationship between flow_coefficient and volume linear.
|
||||
|
||||
Higher packing density -> more material extruded by single turn -> higher pellet_flow_coefficient -> treated as if a filament of larger diameter is being used. All other calculations remain the same for slicing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Disable set remaining print time
|
||||
|
||||
Disable generating of the M73: Set remaining print time in the final G-code.
|
||||
|
||||
## G-code thumbnails
|
||||
|
||||
Picture sizes to be stored into a .gcode and .sl1 / .sl1s files, in the following format: "XxY, XxY, ..."
|
||||
|
||||
## Use relative E distances
|
||||
|
||||
Relative extrusion is recommended when using "label_objects" option. Some extruders work better with this option unchecked (absolute extrusion mode). Wipe tower is only compatible with relative mode. It is recommended on most printers. Default is checked.
|
||||
|
||||
## Use firmware retraction
|
||||
|
||||
This experimental setting uses G10 and G11 commands to have the firmware handle the retraction. This is only supported in recent Marlin.
|
||||
|
||||
## Bed temperature type
|
||||
|
||||
This option determines how the bed temperature is set during slicing: based on the temperature of the first filament or the highest temperature of the printed filaments.

# Cooling Fan
|
||||
|
||||
Machine cooling fan settings.
|
||||

## Fan speed-up time
|
||||
|
||||
Start the fan this number of seconds earlier than its target start time (you can use fractional seconds). It assumes infinite acceleration for this time estimation, and will only take into account G1 and G0 moves (arc fitting is unsupported).
|
||||
It won't move fan commands from custom G-code (they act as a sort of 'barrier').
|
||||
It won't move fan commands into the start G-code if the 'only custom start G-code' is activated.
|
||||
Use 0 to deactivate.

### Only overhangs
|
||||
|

Will only take into account the delay for the cooling of overhangs.

|
||||
## Fan kick-start time
|
||||
|
||||
Emit a max fan speed command for this amount of seconds before reducing to target speed to kick-start the cooling fan.
|
||||
This is useful for fans where a low PWM/power may be insufficient to get the fan started spinning from a stop, or to get the fan up to speed faster.

# Printable Space
|
||||
|
||||
This section defines the printer’s physical build area and how the slicer maps models to it. Configure the bed shape, dimensions and origin so the virtual bed matches your machine; use a circular or rectangular profile for standard beds or supply an STL for custom shapes. Add a texture or model to improve visual alignment in the 3D view.
|
||||
|
||||
Specify any excluded (unprintable) regions as a polygon so the arranger avoids them. Set the printable height to your maximum Z travel, and use Z offset to correct endstop inaccuracies (this value is added to every Z coordinate in exported G‑code). The best object position is a normalized [0–1] preference used by automatic arranging, and preferred orientation controls automatic Z-axis alignment on import.

## Best object position
|

|
||||
Best auto arranging position in range [0,1] w.r.t. bed shape.
|

## Z offset
|
||||
|
||||
This value will be added (or subtracted) from all the Z coordinates in the output G-code. It is used to compensate for bad Z endstop position: for example, if your endstop zero actually leaves the nozzle 0.3mm far from the print bed, set this to -0.3 (or fix your endstop).
|
||||
|
||||
## Preferred orientation
|
||||
|
||||
Automatically orient STL files on the Z axis upon initial import.

# Basic Extruder Information
|
||||
|
||||
This section contains the basic information about the extruder.
|
||||
|
||||
## Nozzle diameter
|
||||
|
||||
The diameter of nozzle.
|
||||
|
||||
## Nozzle volume
|
||||
|
||||
Volume of nozzle between the filament cutter and the end of the nozzle
|
||||
|
||||
## Extruder Layer Height Limits
|
||||
|
||||
Min and max layer height limits for the extruder. These settings are used when adaptive layer height is enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
## Extruder offset Position
|
||||
|
||||
If your firmware doesn't handle the extruder displacement you need the G-code to take it into account. This option lets you specify the displacement of each extruder with respect to the first one. It expects positive coordinates (they will be subtracted from the XY coordinate).

# Retraction
|
||||
|
||||
Retraction state at the beginning of the custom G-code block. If the custom G-code moves the extruder axis, it should write to this variable so OrcaSlicer de-retracts correctly when it gets control back.

- [Retraction When Switching Materials](#retraction-when-switching-materials)
|
||||
- [Long retraction when cut (beta)](#long-retraction-when-cut-beta)
|
||||
|
||||
## Length
|
||||
|
||||
When retraction is triggered before changing tool, filament is pulled back by the specified amount (the length is measured on raw filament, before it enters the extruder).
|
||||
|
||||
## Extra length on restart
|
||||
|
||||
When the retraction is compensated after changing tool, the extruder will push this additional amount of filament.
|
||||
|
||||
## Retraction speed
|
||||
|
||||
Speed for retracting filament from the nozzle.
|
||||
|
||||
## Deretraction speed
|
||||
|
||||
Speed for reloading filament into the nozzle. Zero means same speed of retraction.
|
||||
|
||||
## Travel distance threshold
|
||||
|
||||
Only trigger retraction when the travel distance is longer than this threshold.
|
||||
|
||||
## Retract on layer change
|
||||
|
||||
This forces a retraction on layer changes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Wipe while retracting
|
||||
|
||||
This moves the nozzle along the last extrusion path when retracting to clean any leaked material on the nozzle. This can minimize blobs when printing a new part after traveling.
|
||||
|
||||
## Wipe distance
|
||||
|
||||
Describe how long the nozzle will move along the last path when retracting.
|
||||
Depending on how long the wipe operation lasts, how fast and long the extruder/filament retraction settings are, a retraction move may be needed to retract the remaining filament.
|
||||
Setting a value in the retract amount before wipe setting below will perform any excess retraction before the wipe, else it will be performed after.
|
||||
|
||||
## Retract amount before wipe
|
||||
|
||||
This is the length of fast retraction before a wipe, relative to retraction length.
|
||||
|
||||
## Retraction When Switching Materials
|
||||
|
||||
Retraction settings specifically for material changes during tool changes in multi-material prints.
|
||||
|
||||
### Long retraction when cut (beta)
|
||||
|
||||
Experimental feature: Retracting and cutting off the filament at a longer distance during changes to minimize purge. While this reduces flush significantly, it may also raise the risk of nozzle clogs or other printing problems.

# Z Hop
|
||||
|
||||
Z-Hop is a feature that lifts the nozzle slightly during travel moves to avoid collisions with the printed object. This is particularly useful for prints with tall, thin features or when printing multiple objects on the build plate.
|
||||
|
||||
## On surfaces
|
||||
|
||||
Enforce Z-Hop behavior. This setting is impacted by the above settings (Only lift Z above/below).
|
||||
|
||||
## Z-hop type
|
||||
|
||||
- Auto: Selects automatically between Spiral based on whether the travel move crosses over overhang areas
|
||||
- Normal Lift: The nozzle is lifted vertically during retraction and lowered back down before resuming printing.
|
||||
- Slope: The nozzle moves diagonally (at an angle) during retraction, creating a sloped path.
|
||||
- Spiral: The nozzle moves in a spiral pattern while lifting, which can help reduce stringing and improve print quality.
|
||||
|
||||
## Z-hop height
|
||||
|
||||
Whenever there is a retraction, the nozzle is lifted a little to create clearance between the nozzle and the print. This prevents the nozzle from hitting the print when traveling more. Using spiral lines to lift z can prevent stringing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Traveling angle
|
||||
|
||||
Traveling angle for Slope and Spiral Z-hop type. Setting it to 90° results in Normal Lift.
|
||||
|
||||
## Only lift Z above
|
||||
|
||||
If you set this to a positive value, Z lift will only take place above the specified absolute Z.
|
||||
|
||||
## Only lift Z below
|
||||
|
||||
If you set this to a positive value, Z lift will only take place below the specified absolute Z.

# Machine G-code
|
||||
|
||||
Machine G-code are custom G-code scripts that are executed at specific points during the printing process. These scripts can be used to customize printer behavior, such as setting temperatures, moving the print head, or controlling fans.
|
||||
|
||||
- [Machine start G-code](#machine-start-g-code)

|
||||
- [Pause G-code](#pause-g-code)
|
||||
- [Template Custom G-code](#template-custom-g-code)
|
||||
|
||||
## Machine start G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code is executed at the beginning of a print job, before any printing starts. It is typically used to prepare the printer for printing, such as homing axes, heating the bed and nozzle, and performing any necessary pre-print checks.
|
||||
|
||||
## Machine end G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code is executed at the end of a print job, after all printing is complete. It is typically used to turn off heaters, move the print head away from the print, and perform any necessary post-print actions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Printing by object G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code is executed at the start of printing each individual object in a multi-object print job. It can be used to set specific parameters or perform actions for each object.
|
||||
|
||||
## Before layer change G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code is inserted at every layer change before the Z lift.
|
||||
|
||||
## Layer change G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code is inserted at every layer change after the Z lift.
|
||||
|
||||
## Timelapse G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code is used for capturing timelapse videos. It typically includes commands to move the print head out of the way for a photo and then return it to the previous position.
|
||||
|
||||
## Change filament G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code is inserted when filament is changed, including T commands to trigger tool change.
|
||||
|
||||
## Change extrusion role G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code is inserted when the extrusion role is changed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Pause G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This G-code will be used as a code for the pause print. Users can insert pause G-code in the G-code viewer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Template Custom G-code
|
||||
|
||||
This section allows users to define custom G-code templates that can be reused across different print jobs. Users can create and manage their own G-code snippets for various purposes.

### Resonance Avoidance Speed
|
||||
|
||||
By reducing the speed of the outer wall to avoid the resonance zone of the printer, ringing on the surface of the model are avoided.
|

||||
|
||||
This section describes the parameters specific to single extruder multi-material (SEMM) printing.
|
||||
|
||||
## Cooling tube position
|
||||
|
||||
Distance of the center-point of the cooling tube from the extruder tip.
|
||||
|
||||
## Cooling tube length
|
||||
|
||||
Length of the cooling tube to limit space for cooling moves inside it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Filament parking position
|
||||
|
||||
Distance of the extruder tip from the position where the filament is parked when unloaded. This should match the value in printer firmware.
|
||||
|
||||
## Extra loading distance
|
||||
|
||||
When set to zero, the distance the filament is moved from parking position during load is exactly the same as it was moved back during unload. When positive, it is loaded further, if negative, the loading move is shorter than unloading.
|
||||
|
||||
## High extruder current on filament swap
|
||||
|
||||
It may be beneficial to increase the extruder motor current during the filament exchange sequence to allow for rapid ramming feed rates and to overcome resistance when loading a filament with an ugly shaped tip.

## Single Extruder Multi Material
|
||||
|
||||
Use single nozzle to print multi filament.
|
||||
|
||||
## Extruders
|
||||
|
||||
Number of extruders of the printer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Manual Filament Change
|
||||
|
||||
Manual filament change is a feature that allows the user to change the filament during the print. This can be useful for multi-material prints or when changing colors. The user can specify the position and timing of the filament change, as well as the speed and distance of the ramming process.
|
||||
Enable this option to omit the custom Change filament G-code only at the beginning of the print. The tool change command (e.g., T0) will be skipped throughout the entire print. This is useful for manual multi-material printing, where we use M600/PAUSE to trigger the manual filament change action.

# Wipe Tower
|
||||
|
||||
The prime tower is a structure that is printed before the actual print to ensure that the nozzle is primed with the correct filament. It helps to prevent oozing and stringing during the print. The prime tower can be customized in various ways, such as its size, shape, and position.
