E3D HF Obxidian Settings

Hey guys,

still quite new to 3d printing.
I have just installed a E3D HF Obxidian for my P1S.

Watched this video which is a really cool comparison.

I would now like to test the higher speeds / flow rates with the new hotend.

However, I am quite overwhelmed with all the different settings.

Do you have some tipps where I could start? Or someone has a profile for a E3D?

Thanks for your help :slight_smile:

I installed my ObXidians about 2 weeks ago. Due to a large, month-long project, I did not have the time to twiddle around and just increased Filament Flow by 50% for PLA Marble (18 from 12) and 25% for PLA with a flow rates above 20. Works beautifully :smiley:

But to get proper values, you can always do Max Flow Rate testing. Most posts I have seen in the forum seem to have max flow rate increases up to 60% :smiley:

For everything else, defaults are good.

What he said.
Works for the other E3D Bambu nozzles too.

emm, which speed settings exactly? (see print screen)

so many speed settings…

Really it’s best you run stock speeds until you know the nozzle and what flow rates you want etc.

I still run stock speed settings, or “sport”.

I did not change any of the speed settings. I only changed the Max flow rate in the filament settings (Edit filament => 1st filament tab, all the way at the bottom).
