PETG infill top issues

I've been printing with orca lately @ around 350-600mm/s & 10k accel. Delta 4028 running @ 40-100% depending on layer time. Bridging speed @ 75mm/s...

GIANT first layer test on my 400mm 3.1

Looks quite high in some spots and quite low in others... Just right in some. What do you think?

Layer line all of the sudden?

From time to time I get these random lines (left side in basket), where do I start check for errors? V-core 3.1 300 Enclosure 2.0 Print speed on external is only 60mm/sec and still get these , usually ONE on a random layer. ...

Banding on print

Hello all, and thanks in advance for any help. my vcore 500 is having these banded lines on the print at certain points. I am not sure what to do, I ran through all of orca slicers tests to calibrate recently, so im not sure where to go next. I am not sure if it is mechanical or software. Any tips to point me in a direction would be very helpful.

First Layer Issue with Beacon

Hello, I have a vcore 500mm and just installed a beacon probe. after running it my first layer was bad and seemed to be very inconsistent. Its high in areas and way to low in others. I can see the z axis moving when its printing so I know something is happening. Any advice on how to fix this? I attached an image of the first layer to show how some areas are fine and others are awful. Image...

Very bad surface quality (V-Minion, LGX Lite + Rapido 2+)

I recently assembled my first V-minion, standard kit but with a Rapido V2. Everything seems to be working properly, but I am getting very bad surface quality on the prints, as shown in the images. I have done rotation distance calibration, and tested several flow rates, but I always seem to get faulty extrusion and very noticeable layer lines. Print settings are default Prusa slicer settings for the V-Minion. I print exclusively PETG, but so far I have tried two brands. Photos are Prusament gray PETG, brand new roll (that's literally the first print with that roll)....

support first layers

What settings in super slicer should I be looking at to get better quality first layers on top of supports?

Newly built V-Core, ringing like crazy

I’ve just put this thing together and done my first few test prints. The ringing and corner bulging is extreme, even though I’m only doing 120mms at 3k accel. I’m guessing this is from something mechanical, the resonances can’t be this bad at this slow speed, right? I tensioned the belts a little extra and it got worse. I just don’t know where to start with this issue.

layer shift

It starts to print in position but while is printing after some layers it seems that is moving, it prints a few layers more and then is moving more. Whats that?

DDEX print issues and tuning log.

Now that I've got RatOS playing nicely and the mesh in a good place I can finally start one of these threads in here. Similarly to other threads I'm just kinda posting a log of my changes and troubleshooting in the hopes that others might come in with advice as I make progress....

Vase mode seam?

I am printing some chrismas ornaments in vase mode. I am not able to eliminate what looks like a seam. Attached are some pictures of the orca slicer view and the actual print. They both show a seam. When printing, the printer does not stop or slow down at any position. I have double checked that I have "spiral vase" checked. This defect looks more pronounced in areas where the slope gradient is large. Any suggestions?

First Layer -> Future Layer Issues

Hey all, I'm having some issues with my first layers that are then causing scraping & gap issues in my later layers. For some quick background info, I'm just coming off of diagnosing & fixing my bed mesh issues (https://discord.com/channels/582187371529764864/1182847451049250917) and believe that my underlying problems were caused by a slight warp in my bed which I though I was able to remedy. The problem now however is that I consistently see small gaps in the front and right edges of my print'...

ABS bed adhesion issues

Does anybody have an idea, why I have these intermittent adhesion problems with my print sheet? The Filament is Flashforge ABS and the sheet is the one that came with the VC3. I have tried cleaning it thoroughly (soap, water, IPA) and have tweaked my Z height and bed temps to no avail. Could the PEI just be end of life/damaged at that location? Does anybody know of good print sheets for ABS use?...
