How to Enable 3D Touch on the KINGROON KP5L 3D Printer

This video will show you how to add 3D Touch to your KP5L 3D printers. Please make sure to download and use the original holder. And we highly recommend doing preheating before bed leveling and a manual bed leveling before enabling 3D Touch. Please also check your connection carefully, make sure every pin is in the right position. More tutorials for KP5L are coming.

In case you decide to scroll back, the stock firmware for KP5L is listed as below. Please unplug the 5-pin port on the 3D Touch to disable it, or the manual bed leveling function won't work.

Firmware doesn't work. Followed this tutorial verbatim. Please fix soon.

Ola meu amigo, sensacional seu material, onde consigo obter o arquivo para imprimir o suporte para segurar o 3d touch? consegue me ajudar?

Is it correct to keep the power of the Z-axis end stop?

hi there
I ordered kingroon kp5l on June 18th and it was delivered about 2 weeks later.
I tried to do an auto leveling upgrade, but it failed.
It seems to be a chipset problem.
I want to go back to the initialization state, but the firmware on the kingroon homepage has an error.
It costs $169 and is in junk condition.
I need firmware in default state. can you send it by mail?
Again, the firmware on the homepage has problems working!
I am spending too much time on this issue.
I want to recover quickly and complete my review on YouTube.

The firmware only allows for 9 point sampling. I really think the KP5L would benefit from a 16 point or larger sampling. Is there anyway to do that ??

[shiraUdon]

I have spent hours on this with no luck. I have an identical board and 3D Touch as shown, followed exactly and the Z-axis will not go down. The auto-level function is there, but the probe doesn't go down at each point and the z-axis just keeps going higher - completely unusable - please fix this...

[chenghsienchang]

Is the new firmware Ok, now?
I see many user question, does it be solve?
Thanks ~

I have received a new version of the printer, can I make a connection via a distribution board (on the X axis)? There are pins on the board itself, the question is, is it possible to connect BlTouch through them?

I purchased my KP5L from Amazon at the end of May (files on USB drive dated 28 May 2022). My extruder cover does NOT have mounting holes for the 3D Touch on the right side of the extruder cover. The holes on my KP5L are on the left side of the cover. Can I assume the 3D Touch can also be installed on the left side of the cover? The video states the holder for the 3D Touch is "slightly longer than the other one (KP3?)". Is that the file uploaded by Jiachen Guo on 20 December 2021 (P5-3Dtouch-Fix-2.STL and P5-3Dtouch-Fix-1.STL) or the files uploaded by Jiachen Gou on 12 March 2022 (Kingroon KP5 BLTouch Upgrades) or some other file? Thanks in advance Jim W.

Laser? Is that possible? and if it is, is possible to habe the 3d touch and laser at the same time?

[HazelLe-qqov]

hi, thank you for the useful video. I downloaded the files but the filaments worked in wrong direction, please help!

[ptkwilliams]

I have the issue where it's not dropping the probe after I initially start the machine. When I autolevel it just goes to the middle after the first probing.

[jarrodcrase]

After adding the BL touch, my KP5L now extrudes the filament the wrong way from the titan feeder, how do I fix this?

[bzruxzt]

Tell me, where can I download the firmware for the sensor and the STL file for mounting the sensor?

[bzruxzt]

when will the new firmware be released? I don't see any update.

[xcutzpq]

The 3D Touch leveling Sensor I got are useless pieces of junk. Ordered two of these for my Kingroon KP5 machines. The firmware they tell you to use makes the X axis work backwards. Then the work around for that is to change a code in a line in the firmware but that kind of fixes that but manually it still runs backwards. But none of that really matters because it will work for about 3 to 4 layers then the screen goes white and stops. I have eight kingroon machines and I love them all but this thing is driving me crazy. Does anyone know how to fix this please let me know because Kingroon isn't helping me.

[bzruxzt]

Tell me, when will the updated firmware for the 3D touch for this printer be released, because I'm tired of testing in order to catch the accuracy of the sensor?

[hobbyhuntersport]

На новый директ эктрудер stl файл не подходит. Будет новая модель для крепления датчика?

[yoshiyu]

Hello. I installed the touch sensor and updated the firmware. The auto-leveling worked fine, but now I cannot print. First of all, when I start printing, the screen goes blank. Then printing starts, but the filament feed motor is spinning backwards. When the screen goes blank, it does not recover until I turn off the power. What should I do?
The reverse rotation of the extruder could be corrected.

[brianhilligoss]

so i am installing this today. my cable isn't long enough and i don't see one listed on your website. where can i find the correct cable?
