It is imepressive how identical the warmup curves of 1 and 2 are (desipite some timing issues and the bad data login at first minutes of test 1) I expected to get faster(up to double the speed) higher temperatures but it didn't have any relevant effect at all. I assume that the thin insulating layer on the heat bed is already insultion enough and further insulation has no relevant effect. {{:reprap:anet:a8:improvements:curves_heatbed.gif?600|}} {{:reprap:anet:a8:improvements:img_0662.jpg?200|}} reprap/anet/a8/improvements/heatbedinsulation.txt Last modified: 2018/12/02 02:27by 127.0.0.1
