After the success of my V2 Profile I felt I could go even faster with little impact to quality. I started from the V2, checked out some of Chep’s profiles and some other 3rd party profiles, made WAY to many test prints and ended up with something I am really proud of.

Samples

Key Changes over Stock Cura Profiles

• 140 mm/s base print speed (You may be able to push to 150 mm/s if you have upgraded your Ender
• Dialed back travel speed. I did a bunch of tests, the Ender 3 S1 with it’s heavy extruder and bed really can’t handle anything faster without Input Shaping (a project for a future day)
• Modest Jerk control – This really increases the print speed but is “violent” for the printer. If you find your corners are getting sloppy let me know and disable the setting. I have found on my Ender 3 S1 it works fine with my printer on a piece of old tile, on top of some foam insulation. It dampens the motions enough
• Changes to infill to be more like interior support than structure. If you are printing something that is gonna get hard use swap it to cubic.

Possible drawbacks:

• More wispy stringing
• Some lost details on really small towers if you don’t have enough cooling

Overall this profile maintains really good .2 layer height quality with really fast printer speed. It takes a really dialed-in printer, Bed Trammed, Leveled, and Cleaned. Properly adjusted eccentric nuts, squared gantry, etc.

If you find this too fast for you dial it back to 120 or 100 and you should still get some great results.

Some comparisons from other profiles, screen shots from Cura

90 minutes savings from CHEP‘s good profile -(His does print better though, not by much, but def better), 45 minutes savings from my V2 profile

• New V3 Profile, 3 hours 48 minutes
• Existing V2 Profile 4 hours, 25 minutes
• CHEP FF5.1 Good Profile, 5 hours 24 minutes
