About KlipperLab

Tune Klipper for speed you can actually use.

What this site covers

KlipperLab covers Klipper firmware for high-speed printing. It concentrates on the features that make speed usable rather than merely fast: resonance compensation, kinematic configuration and the toolhead electronics that carry it.

• Input shaping and ADXL345 resonance measurement
• CoreXY kinematics and configuration
• CANbus toolheads and wiring
• Pressure advance tuning
• Configuration file structure and macros
• Host and control board hardware selection
• Firmware selection: Klipper against the alternatives

4 articles are published so far. New ones are announced on the RSS feed.

Start with these

• Klipper vs Marlin: Which Firmware Should You Run?
  A spec-level comparison of Klipper and Marlin: where motion is computed, how each is configured, what tuning features ship, and who each one suits.
• Klipper Hardware Requirements: SBC, MCU, and Sensors
  Klipper hardware requirements with Raspberry Pi alternatives, supported BTT, MKS and FYSETC boards, MCU flash methods, and accelerometer connections.
• How Klipper Works: Host, MCU, and printer.cfg
  How Klipper works from G-code to step pulses: host planning, MCU timing, printer.cfg changes, protocol communication, and when to reflash firmware.
• Klipper Input Shaper Setup: Wiring and Tuning an ADXL345
  Wiring, configuration, and calibration commands for measuring resonance with an ADXL345 in Klipper, plus fixes for the errors that stop a run.

There is also an input shaper and acceleration sizer, which turns a measured resonant frequency and a shaper choice into the acceleration ceiling they imply.

How these articles are produced

Articles here are researched from primary sources: vendor and project documentation, published standards and specifications, research papers and preprints, and measurements published by whoever took them. Drafts are produced with AI assistance and then edited against those cited sources before anything is published.

No article on this site is based on first-hand testing in a private lab, and nothing here should be read as a measurement report of its own. Where a number appears, it comes from a source that is named, so you can check the original instead of taking this site's word for it.

Everything is published under a single editorial byline. That byline is a publishing identity for the site, not a claim about a named individual, and it does not carry professional credentials.

Corrections

Corrections are welcome. If something here is wrong, out of date, or attributed to the wrong source, email hello@klipperlab.com with the page address and what it should say. Substantive corrections are made in the article itself rather than quietly dropped.

How this site is funded

Some articles carry affiliate links to Amazon, and any article that does is marked with a notice at the top. There are no sponsored posts, no paid placements and no display advertising. The disclosure page sets out the full arrangement.
