Helpful Advice Here’s your daily reminder to dry your filament

Thought it was stored dry so I’d try printing without drying first as it wasn’t going to use much filament anyway, didn’t get away with it this time but after 6 hours of drying it printed perfectly 👌 Sunlu dryer at temp setting 2 for Matte PLA with a load of colour changing silica gel in the middle of the role rather than in the compartment at the back of the dryer

Fix My Print First benchy

So i started 3d printing today and i have this little benchy

I figured i will need to lower the Temp a bit and raise retraction but what else could i do?

I have used PETG, from dasfilament, fresh out of the sealed package on an CR-6 SE printer, set on 230 and 75 degrees, at 50mm/s print speed and 25 mm/s retractions speed.

Print Fixed Our H2D at work recently started having this rough top surface issue. This is a single-layer test of an HDMI wall plate I'm developing. I keep up on maintenance and calibrate regularly. It auto-levels before every print, so I'm not sure it's a leveling issue. Any tips?

Troubleshooting Junction Deviation… Help!

• Upvotes

Hi there! Doing cornering (junction deviation) test and it’s hard for me to understand it. What can I do?

Photos 4&5 are same item, back light and front light

Ender 3 neo modded to dual gear direct drive with Bimetal heatbreak and steel nozzle (w coating). Marlin2, JD stock 0.008, PA 0.1. Speed max 500 accel 2000 printing 2500 per axis and 1500 when retraction. Volumetric flow is 19.5, Polymaker petg @ 255°. With these specs max speed is 213.3(3)mm/s when printing. And I have weird artifacts that I cannot understand…
I did:
Temp test (255)
Max flowrate (19.5)
Pressure advance (0.1)
Flow ratio (0.955)
Retraction (1.4)
Cornering < here 😵‍💫

I’m reading calibration guide again and again but I cannot understand what I need to see, as usual photos on internet are different.

0.4 nozzle, 0.42 width, 0.2 height.

Custom marlin I did myself based on presets and specs.

Fix My Print Wobbly Table Causes?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1 Upvotes

One piece is snapped off during print, stringy filament left in its wake, and it looks like some layers are shifting.

So my table definitely wobbles some moments during the 3d print. I did some calibration testing prior to this which had me figure out optimal temperatures, speeds, and pressure advance settings. This is my first real print after the fact. Looking for any advice, aside from getting a new table (working on that)

Help needed!
We are printing these already for a long time on our printers.

They are all showing this problem, what could cause it?
They have a fat big part on their head, going around.
I assume that it has something to with layer time since it is showing the same pattern.

Troubleshooting Nozzle at 0 degrees

Hi i have a bambu lab h2s and after a little blob on the nozzle of the printer the temperature has been stuck at 0 degrees.

I've talked with the bambulab team and they sent me a new heat assembly module beliving that was the cause of the problem but after (i think) corectly installing it, I still have the same problem as before where the temperature is stuck at 0 or voes between 0 and 3 degrees with the fan at maximum speed and i don't have any clue on what's causing the problem, i would really like to continue 3d printing but I don't have any clue on how to resolve the issue

Fix My Print Weird chipping/imperfections on tall thin print

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

Hello,

I've recently started designing my own 3D Models which honestly has been going great so far.

But the actual printing is where I seem to be struggling a bit and not finding a solution.

I've got myself a bambu lab p2s because it's so easy to just use other peoples print profiles with all the needed settings but now with my own models I'm struggling with the printer settings. With PLA I've not really had any problems but this model has to be printed with PETG and it's reacting very different than PLA.

My main problem:

Chipping/dents/little blobs at the edges/corners of these tall thin pillars. (thinnest 6mm, widest 12mm)

My printer:

Bambu Lab P2S

Slicer: Bambu Studio

Filament:

Bambu PETG Matte Black

My current print settings:

0.4mm Standard nozzle - 240 C temp

15% infil

2 wall loops

.16 layer height

outer wall 60mm/s

inner wall 300mm/s

Bed Temp 70 C

Retraction Length 0.4mm

Z hop Spiral

Retraction Speed is N/A, if toggled on 30mm/s. but I had it off.

(if I'm missing any important settings please ask and I'll see what they're set at)

Any tips on how to fix this problem?

I know theres also a line where the tiny arch connects at the bottom but I'm pretty sure that's because of the failed support (did a lil weird spaghetti so didn't support anything). I've now manually painted the supports which will hopefully fix that problem...

if there are any other things I could improve/fix please be free to let me know. I'm welcome to all help as I'm a complete noob!

Nothing seems to adhere outside the middle four inches of the plate. I have brims applied, plate is completely clean. Also weird roughness in the centre of the infill. I am using Sunlu PLA. 0.08mm extra fine. 100% speed. Nozzle 220c plate 75c.

Troubleshooting Keep getting this stringing problem.

Thumbnail gallery

Details in original post. The design is a 6mm piece with a 1.5-2mm radius on all four edges.

Bambu A2L and X2D using Bambu Studio.
Filament is dry and plates are meticulously cleaned.
Stringing issue more like the wall is collapsing and stretching somehow.
Always the inner radius, always within the first 2-3 layers. Prints fine after that.
Tried several nozzle and plate temps.
Tried several plate types both physically and in settings.
Tried every fan setting I could.
Tried slowing down movement.
Tried printing infill first then inner wall then outer wall, no change.
Happens on several different filaments but sometimes prints fine. Bambu PLA basic jade white seems to ALWAYS do it no matter what.

Fix My Print Neptune 4 Max (OpenNept4une): bed screws read near 0 but first layer won’t stick and I almost got a blob of death. What am I missing?

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I’m pretty new to 3D printing. I’ve had my Neptune 4 Max for about a year and have never managed to get good first layers (or anything at all, for that matter). I’ve gone through the whole tuning process multiple times and it’s really frustrating. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

Setup:

  • Elegoo Neptune 4 Max running OpenNept4une (Klipper/Fluidd)
  • Silicone spacers upgrade on the bed
  • Elegoo PLA Basic, 220°C nozzle / 60°C bed
  • OrcaSlicer, 0.20mm Standard u/Elegoo N4Max profile

What I did (several times over):

  1. Ran Screws Tilt Adjust over and over until all the screws showed 00:00-00:01.
  2. Then did the Z offset calibration.
  3. Started a print, and the filament barely stuck to the bed. It dragged along and nearly turned into a blob of death.

The weird part: when I ran Screws Tilt Adjust again afterwards it shouldn’t have drifted this much so quickly. Rear Left says 00:07 and Front Right says 00:06, and the others are 00:02-00:04.
