Hook and Scoop bed clearing device
Description
This is an automatic bed clearing device. It requires custom gcode. This is specifically designed to fit the Creality hot ends. I have included a template for the mounting bolts. Do this quick print before printing the mount. Make sure it fits your machine. I have included my base gcode for the hook and scoop maneuver. You will need to test it and figure out the exact coordinates you need to place the loop of the ear saver so the hook will catch the loop without hitting the sides or going too shallow or too deep. After you figure out the exact position the strap belongs, you'll need to copy and paste gcode until you have it as long as you need. You'll need a header that has the settings for the measurement system and the heat settings, then your sliced code for the strap, then my code for the maneuver, then repeat your code, my code, your code, my code, etc., then the footer that shuts everything down when complete. I'm not great at math, but I figured the straps use 1.1 meters each, there's about 330 meters on a 1Kg roll, that'd be 300 straps. I'd drop a few off to be sure, unless you have a filament runout sensor. At 11 minutes a strap, repeating 300 times it should take about 2-1/2 days to complete 1Kg (300) straps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFu0et2Wzv4
