1. X-Motion Leveling.
Keep a same distance between top surface of Z-Axis Motor Fixed Plate and bottom face of Z-Axis Link
Block (Left&Right). If not, turn a side of “Flexible Coupling” to keep two sides same to make it level.

2.Hotbed Level.
2.1 In the control panel, press control button and spin and press it to “Prepare” – “Z Home”, then
Extruder moves torwards hotbed. Check if nozzle top almost touches hotbed surface. If not, find the
long screw behind Left Z-Axis Link Block, and adjust it to be.
2.2
Panel Control, “Prepare” – “Auto Home”, to move nozzle to origin point. And still check if the
distance between nozzle top and hotbed surface. It should be only allow a piece of A4 paper to pass
through. If not, make clockwise (or coutercolockwise) rotation of the Wing Nuts beneath hotbed
surface. Manually move hotbed or slide Extruder to other vertexes of hotbed to make it level evenly.

3. CURA 3D Slicing Software

3.1

What can CURA help us?

Cura is mainly used for model slicing. It calculates paths upon the model files, and then generates 3D
model codes, named “.gcode”. “STL” is the most common origin model files. These files can be save
as “.stl” in a certain drawing software or download online.

3.2 Installation of Cura.
Just like any other normal software installation. Find the “Cura.exe” in SD Card, and double click to
cause the following window.

Cura 3D Printing Slicing Configuration.

“Layer height” is the most
important setting to
determine the quality of
your print. Normal quality
prints are 0.2mm, high
quality is 0.1 or 0.05mm.

Shell Thickness: Thickness of the
outside shell in the horizontal
direction.This is used in
combination with the nozzle size to
define the number of perimeter
lines and the thickness of those
perimeter lines.

This controls the thickness of
the bottom and top layers,
the amount of solid layers
put down is calculated by the
layer thickness and this
value.Having this value a
multiple of the layer
thickness makes sense. And

For a solid part use 100%, for an

Details about the retraction can be

Est Printing Time.
Speed at which printing happens. A
well adjusted Ultimaker can reach
150mm/s, but for good quality prints
you want to print slower. Printing
speed depends on a lot of factors. So
you will be experimenting with optimal
settings for this.

empty part use 0%. A value
around 20% is usually enough.
This won't affect the outside of
the print and only adjusts how
strong the part becomes.

Type of support structure
build. Touching buildplate
is the most commonly used
support setting.None does
not do any
support.Touching
buildplate only creates
support where the support
structure will touch the
build platform.Everywhere
creates support even on
top of parts of the model.

Retract the filament when the nozzle
is moving over a none-printed area.

compensation, the amount of

Nozzle Size(mm) – 0.4mm.

Different options that help in
preventing corners from lifting
due to warping.Brim adds a
single layer thick flat area
around your object which is
easy to cut off afterwards, and
it is the recommended option.
Raft adds a thick raster below
the object and a thin interface
between this and your
object.(Note that enabling the
brim or raft disables the skirt)

value of 230℃ or higher is
required. Bed Temperature is
used for the heated printer bed.
Set at 0 to pre-heat yourself.

Add a certain amount of overlapping
extrusion on dual-extrusion prints.
This bonds the different colors
together.

TravelSpeed -- Speed at which travel moves are done, a well built RAISCUBE can
reach speeds of 250mm/s. But some machines might miss steps then.
InfillSpeed: Speed at which infill parts are printed. If set to 0 then the print speed
is used for the infill. Printing the infill faster can greatly reduce printing time, but
this can negatively affect print quality.
Bottom Layer Speed: Print speed for the bottom layer, you want to print the first
layer slower so it sticks better to the printer bed.
Outer Shell Speed: Speed at which outer shell is printed. If set to 0 then the print
speed is used. Printing the outer shell at a lower speed improves the final skin
quality. However, having a large difference between the inner shell speed and
the outer shell speed will effect quality in a negative way.
Inner Shell Speed: Speed at which inner shells are printed. If set to 0 then the
print speed is used. Printing the inner shell faster then the outer shell will reduce
printing time. It is good to set this somewhere in between the outer shell speed
and the infill/printing speed.

Minmal Layer Time: Minimum time spent in a
layer, gives the layer time to cool down before
the next layer is put on top. If the layer will be
placed down too fast the printer will slow down
to make sure it has spent at least this amount of
seconds printing this layer.
Enable Cooling Fan – Check to turn on extruder
cooling fan.

Speed: Speed at which the
filament is retracted, a higher
retraction speed works better.
But a very high retraction
speed can lead to filament
grinding. 120 is a common
value for it.

Retraction: Retract the filament when the
nozzle is moving over a none-printed area.
Details about the retraction can be configured
in the advanced tab.

Distance: Amount of
retraction, set at 0 for no
retraction at all. A value of
4.5mm seems to generate
good results. Normally set
to be 3~5mm.

Cut off object bottom: Sinks the
object into the platform, this can
be used for objects that do not
have a flat bottom and thus create
a too small first layer. Also can be
used to printing

Model is locked by default to keep the
whole object a same zoom rate, click on
the lock icon to zoom XYZ separately.
Scale: Middle icon is
scale to adjust model
size for printing.

After Configuration of Parameters, remember to save files to SD Card. Pleaes note to name file in English, or will
fail to printing.
