add a wiper to elegoo?
#1
Hello, I have an elegoo Mars Pro, and like to add a wiper so that I can wipe the resin vat for each layer. My thoughts are to insert a line or two g-code between each layer, for example, after each Z-axis lifting. In order to do this I will need to 1) insert gcode after each layer; and 2) get a signal (or control) from the motherboard to activate a Ramps/Arduino/actuator.

I was wondering if this is possible to modify the elegoo mars? Thank you!

I have had a plain ol' Mars unit for over a year and have not seen any need for such a device. What "problem" are you seeking to resolve.

I like to cure a very thick resin that I made. It is so thick that a wiper is necessary to replenish the resin between layers.
