![]() ![]() Cetus is almost a plug and play device, first-time 3D printer users just need to fasten a few screws before it is ready to print. Jason Wu: We are positioning this machine as a prosumer 3D printer with an entry-level price. What market are you targeting this machine for with these features? Hardware componets of the Cetus 3D printerįabbaloo: For such an inexpensive 3D printer, there are some interesting capabilities, like the ability to print layers as small as 0.05mm and a fairly large build volume of 180 x 180 x 180mm. Therefore we can make the price more affordable with a relatively short lead time. The minimalist design and simplicity also allow easier and faster manufacturing of the products. The whole machine is also highly modular, X,Y, Z axis modules are almost identical. So there is no upfront tooling cost for this product. Stick with the Cetus slicer and save some money and heartbreak.Jason Wu: The machine is made with aluminum extrusion, sheet metal, and some relative simple CNC parts. But, if you’re a newbie like me, skip S3D. ![]() If you’re knowledgeable enough to make it work, by all means, get S3D. When the gcode loads, the stepper motors will bang against the endstops until you kill the print, even when you remove all the G28 codes. ![]() I’ve purchased S3D, followed every single one the instructions here, spoken to the S3D support, and it simply won’t work. The profile at the beginning of this thread will NOT work on every case. Be very aware of that before you shell out $150 for S3D. The Cetus3D is not “supported” in the general sense of the term. It WON’T connect to the printer via USB or wireless. Just a bit of advice to anyone who’s not very savvy: Simplif圓D will NOT work right off the box with the Cetus3D MKII. Their only solution was to create the G-code in S3D and print it using the Cetus software (which I find to be excellent - I take stl files from sketchup straight to the Cetus software and print) Hope this issue gets resolved. They say they have a MkII and use it in their office. S3D says it’s a communication error because Cetus uses a proprietary code sequence in their transmission to the printer. Same problem I am having with S3D doesn’t connect to Cetus MkII extended. A new device will show up in this directory and that's the port you'll need to use. It may be time to take the software's advice and to set the serial port and baudrate manually.īefore plugging the printer in via serial cable, do an ls -l /dev on the Raspberry.
