Tunie

Version 1.0.0-alpha · in Tinkerie 1.5.2-alphaAlpha

Calibrate your 3D printer one simple test at a time.

In plain words

Most print problems (stringing, gaps, blobs, parts that don't fit) come from a few settings. Tunie makes a small test print for each one, tells you what to look at, and turns your measurement into the exact setting to change. No slicer needed.

Features

Calibration tests

Each one makes its own G-code.

  • PID tuning for the hotend and bed, E-steps / rotation distance
  • Flow, temperature tower, retraction tower
  • Pressure / linear advance, maximum volumetric flow
  • Input shaping / ringing tower, with a Klipper accelerometer guide
  • First layer, XYZ cube, accuracy frame with skew, overhangs, bridging
  • Tolerance (peg in hole) and stringing

Bed mesh viewer

See how flat your bed really is.

  • Reads Marlin, Klipper (Moonraker) and RepRapFirmware meshes
  • A coloured 3D height map
  • Suggests which bed screws to turn, and how far

Belt tension helper

Tune belts by ear, with your PC's microphone.

  • Pluck a belt and Tunie shows its frequency
  • Compare belts so both sides match

Printers and firmware

The right commands for your machine.

  • 40 presets plus custom printers, rectangular or round beds
  • Marlin, Klipper, RepRapFirmware, Prusa (MK3 and Buddy), Bambu Lab
  • Send over USB, Moonraker or OctoPrint, or save .gcode to the SD card

Results you can keep

A history for every printer and filament.

  • Reloadable profiles and a summary card picture
  • Presets for PrusaSlicer, OrcaSlicer and Bambu Studio, and a Cura settings list
  • Firmware command batches and printer.cfg snippets
  • Shares fit clearances and shrinkage with Makie
