VC4 500 IDEX - 125hz Peak
It’s good they are improving, I want them to succeed as it’s a great community and product. But, I’d be lying if I said it was the probably the most frustrating and exhausting purchases I’ve ever made. I was first batch. Ordered less than two hours after presales went live. It was an escalating frustration over the course of 4 months. No need to get into why.
With your situation, I would have felt the same and was on your side. Doesn’t matter if the experts say it doesn’t matter. It was a continuation of a general theme I had felt for months.
Anyways, sorry to jump in on it. I’m happy everything is coming together and would still recommend ratrig over any other machine out there. Can’t wait for them to start rolling out their Disrupt machine. https://www.disruptengineering.com

VC4 500 IDEX - 125hz Peak
Ya, I was mainly interested in IDEX for multi material printing rather than just color. I don’t mind purging but I hope ratrig manages to feed the filament directly from the toolhead rather than all the way from the box. Fully winding it back into the box adds a lot of time. Some helge videos have suggested it’ll be directly on the toolhead but we’ll see.

Nice, I think when I get my 300 I’ll try IDEX but for my 500s, gonna stick with one color till I see a reduction in IDEX posts lol.

VC4 500 IDEX - 125hz Peak
Hmm ya. Idk, was wondering since the belts are closer to the accelerometer on t0 and further for t1. I haven’t been keeping up much but I thought everyone was having worse graphs on t1. I’d be interested in mirroring the printed parts then attaching the belts respectively on each toolhead to see if that same relationship could be observed.

Do you guys think IDEX would benefit from 12mm belts to compensate for the loss in stability from unequal belt placement between the toolheads?

What about the y rail 3030s? Been a while since I’ve had my print on and ran belt tests. Thought they got slapped too. Not many options there tho I guess.

Some stuff may settle into place upon use, heat cycles or adding the enclosure.

Sanity check for my belts
That little hump towards the end shows up quite a bit. Some people can get rid of it. I could not. Looks pretty solid tho. You could try matching the large peak a bit more. But that would require turning the tensioner a couple degrees at a time. Up to you on if you like it or want to spend a little bit more time for perfection.

Why do you think ratrig went with such tight tolerance pulleys? Seems like a much better idea to have some sway. Definitely picking up some 12mm.

You could try putting your panels back on and doing a heat soak. It cleaned my graphs up. https://discord.com/channels/582187371529764864/1223286652949106748/1287397504341508098

Why do you think klipper cares about the probe? I’ve started my machine with motors and end stops unplugged. If the voron peeps have a better idea of what’s going on then follow their advice I guess. I’m not entirely sure what you are trying either as well as you’re doing things I would avoid like keeping extra peripherals connected because the error still pops up. The k2 is having a host of issues as well, not sure that’s a good bet of a product.
