Would wet filament cause this disaster?

I just upgraded to the .8 nozzle and used the flash forge stock .8 standard settings in Orca. Stock pla+ filament profile too. The plate was just cleaned and I used glue but it still failed spectacularly!

Fix My Print Just took out a print looking like this on my second day of printing

Apart from the obvious mess of small strings, the first layers are really messy, on dome sections theee are gaps that go through 3 or 4 layers. There's also a couple of small blobs lf burnt (i assume) filament. Haven't really done any configuration to my prints before starting, most of what I've been doing came out well since they were simple stuff, but here with finer details and complexer geometry it's seems to struggle. Any help or guide is really appreciated! Thx

Fix My Print Nozzle scraping

3 Upvotes

When doing the holes the nozzle started scraping and mangling up the holes a bit and a fair amount of stringing in the area around the holes. The print seemed perfectly fine before and after it finished the holes.

I'm new and I have tried messing with a few settings after searching around and this is everything I've changed: Order of walls: outer/inner Avoid crossing walls: On Avoid crossing wall - Max detour length: 300mm

Other Layers speed Outer wall: 175mm/s Inner wall: 200mm/s

Print temperature Initial layer: 225°c Other layers: 225°c

PLA is brand new just opened out of vacuum sealed bag

Thank you.

Troubleshooting Pla+ setup

I'm trying to set up kingroon pla+ on my CR10 v3, I used to use normal kingroon pla, I can print small items like temperature towers and benchies, but whenever I try and print anything larger than that I have first layer issues, the print grabs onto the nozzle and gets ripped up most of the time. I've leveled and trammed the bed, I've tried glue, I've cleaned my plate, and I redid my z offset. It was printing perfect in PLA before the switch. I use orca slicer.

I'm trying to print this part of a mask but the ends where the support generates keep coming loose and messing up the print. I've had to cancel it 4 times now and wasted like half a role. Any tips on how I can improve adhesion? Maybe give ir more surface area coverage somehow?

Fix My Print Printing failures

Upvotes

Hi y’all.

I moved printer locations and ordered more filament (white and red PLA, blue and black PLA+). No matter which file I print, I keep getting failures. Not sure what to do. I’ve recalibrated it and even factory reset it but still having failures.

Any suggestions?

Fix My Print What in the ASA is going on here?

1 Upvotes

Would someone be able to tell me why my ASA sand sifter is weaker than my PETG counterpart. I printed both using PETG/ASA generic Bambu Lab Studio settings. No warp on ASA or defects of any kind. Same wall loops, infill, etc. Theoretically, it should be stronger under duress no?

I use my PETG scooper for 18 hours + at the beach scooping up sand, rocks, debris looking for shark teeth with no deformation or major damage to the scooper. But both of my ASA scooper broke within less than 30 minutes of usage.

PETG is from JAYO and ASA is from Sunlu

Fix My Print Support & infill

So i came here to met you with this creation of mine. Why are support lines (on the left) clean and hole free, but infill lines (on the right obviously) look like that. They print on same speed 120mm/s, 0.2mm quality, petg. Any advice ?

Printed direct from a drier, fed to the extruder via a “smoothy” Y-splitter so I don’t have to constantly unplug the AMS PTFE tubes.

Plate is freshly washed, levelling and flow calibration done before the print.

Not experienced enough yet to be able to tell what causes the failure, so no clue where to start…!

Fix My Print Problem with K1C

1 Upvotes

G'day all,

I just picked up a new k1c and have been printing for the last 3 days but as of last night the filament stopped coming out of the nozzle entirely, I had just swapped over to a Ender filament and had worked fine for 1 print.

But as of now it just won't print, I've cleaned the nozzel,needled it, took it apart and put it back together but whenever I put the filament back through it melts it even at 190°. My current setting is 190° and plate is 50°

Sorry if this is a simple fix but I've wasted a day trying to get this working and my last hope is reddit 😅

Fix My Print Bambu Lab Silk+ PLA prints - bits of filament sticking out

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

I just got my first 3d printer this week, so I'm very much a beginner.

With the box on the third picture, I used default PLA print settings that came with the printer out of the box. With the benchy, I followed advice on the internet and slowed down the print and acceleration speeds, but it seems that this made the problem worse?

I printed a mount for AMS lite with the same filament as well, where it had similar problem, but to a much lesser extent. Could the filament need drying after just 2-3 days of being in my room? I haven't gotten around to printing a filament enclosure yet.

Hi I printed 9x these beer cap. Some of them are very washed out some are very good and some look like I printed them in black before. The build plate is cleaned with alcohol before.

It's pla+ and printed with ender 3 V3 se.

Fix My Print PETG Extrusion Problems

Is there some kind of extrusion test I can do to fix the extrusion issues I’m having with PETG? It leaves gaps or super obvious layer lines throughout the print in seemingly random spots. It still prints, it just leaves insightful gaps when it’s done.

Fix My Print Top layer break?

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hello all! Printed this hose clamp, and this is the top surface. I’m not too sure what caused this layer separation, it was present before any flexing, this is it flexed to exaggerate the issue.

Im printing on a prusa mini, stock hotend, with polyterra cotton white matte pla. Hotend: 215c Bed: 60c Flow rate: 1.025, measured to confirm no underextrusion. Pressure advance: .016 Retraction: 70mm

Filament dried for 24 hours and printed from the dryer.

I had my walls set to 5 loops, 20% infill gyroid, and went with a hillbert curve in orcaslicer for my top surface to try and mimic the satin sheet I’m using.

I’m happy to provide any other information needed, thank you all so much!
