Speed settings for Purge Tower #8399

Hi everyone,

I'm a proud owner of a Palette 3 Pro since recently. Now that I've started to use Purge Towers, I've noticed there is no setting for speeds for those. They usually print super slow which results in prints taking forever.

I've worked with the substitution script to replace speeds with higher ones, but this can lead to other errors and you need to find out the print speed of the wipe tower before you can do that, which not everyone is capable of.

By doing so, I was able to reduce the print time of an only 2 colored print from 7 to 3 hours!

So that in my eyes is a very important setting that's missing (and probably not only for Palette users).

Cheers,
Benjamin

im also a palette (2sp) user, use some non round numbers at speeds to avoid accidental matching, here is how mine looks. check your retraction speed as well. This works for me so far, but i would like to see purgetower speed option as well.

Same issue here. Can you share how did you hack the speed/flowrate for the print tower?

edit: just realized the second post is a list of regex that shows doing it by matching the exact value. Yeah this is not great. Nice trick though.

Since 2.6.1-rc1, the wipe tower speed is determined from perimeter speed and infill speed, as mentioned in the change log. Closing.

When using auto print speed set to 0, the wipe speed defaults to hardcoded 80mm/s.

Issues:

  1. You can only adjust speed using max volumetric speed, which is not a static value when using different layer heights.
  2. Wipe tower ignores max print speed.

I think this should be re-open. A dedicated speed for wipe tower would be ideal.
