Making that Bullet Collator

[GWS]

Your sensor doesn't look like what I have.....so I think you need to give us more info as to exactly which sensor you bought.

As far as wiring, the following picture is how I wired mine:



The sensor need to be a 3 wire lead normally closed (NC) inductive proximity sensor with a minimum detection range of 8mm

Yours looks like a two wire sensor.....have no idea what it is.

If you can't figure it out get another Slicer......TylerR says Cura works fine.......for me IdeaMaker works fine. Look for a menu that has "thin-wall" options.....

IdeaMaker's is in the "Other" menu. Looks like this:



Also make SURE your printer is TUNED! That is, when the model is supposed to print .425 it really does. I think a good way to determine that is to print a cube 10 mm square and measure it with exactness.....calipers?

TylerR may have even a better way......

I have installed both Cura and IdeaMaker. None of these have profiles for Bambu P1S. (or any other Bambu printer )

I have the 634JS. The shaft is D-shaped. It's unclear to me how I would connect the shaft with the collator plate. Afais it will just spin independent from the collator plate. What am I missing?

May want to hit up some bambu groups on FB to find the setting you need. Don't think many of us have Bambu machines.

Quick google and tons of links. One even from a member here. This one seems to cover it. "Detect Thin Walls"

This came up a few pages back. Here is my response.

Sensor is three wire, and is the one from the manual off eBay. Only difference in the wire diagram above you have is your switch has 2 connectors and mine has 3 which is the one from the manual as well. I wired it exactly as the wiring diagram in the images folder and manual. I will try another relay and another sensor as I ordered 3 of them but just didn't know if was sensor or relay side that would cause it not to turn off. Assumed it was Sensor side.

I can't see your picture well since it is really small as an attachment on CB, but If I would have to hazard a guess in my experience the motor is getting power regardless of the sensor. Maybe the difference is the two wire switch? If you can post a larger picture i can examine it more.

It looks like from the pic the - in from the sensor is going to the #2 pin on the relay?

Here is a pic of what I use for wiring:


Green wire is negative in from the sensor.
Top wires are 12v in from switch, and sensor. bottom wires are to the motor.

white wire negative to sensor. red wire positive to sensor.
Hope that helps.

I have black wire from sensor going to in negative on the relay (as in image in manual) and blue from the censor connected with - Power on speed controller and 12 V negative going to the - on the LED switch. I have Brown from the censor connected with + Power from the controller and + In from the relay going into the middle positive on the LED Switch. I then have the + 12 Volt going to the second + (end one) on the LED Switch. I tried to pm you a google drive larger image but I'll put here as well if it works. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0?ui=...id=f_lvvcgmqv0
