printing round tubes
Having trouble printing round stuff this is PETG and currently running 240c .15mm layer height. 2mm retraction yet still i get these.
400 mm with rapedo hotend....
Cannot finish print
Vcore 400 3.1 enclosed. rapido w/ .4 LGX extruder.
Trying to print the x end cap in 3DO ASA and it keeps failing. I have calibrated everything multiple times, have z offset right. I have been able to print the rest of the parts but this one keeps failing at around layer 23. I appears that since the model slopes up from the bottom that the perimeters are curling up which over time causes the head to hit the print which eventually leads to the attached photos....

petg issues
Polymaker petg. Dried for 6 hours at 60c.
What gives? It's peeling up in the print and then when it does stick, it has these weird waves...
Linear movement analysis, vertical pattern
Can someone help me with this graphs? I can't find any information about how to "read" them.
I have a vertical pattern on my prints, more visible under 160mm/s....
Uneven extrusion on thin wall
I'm trying to create punchable holes for an electronics box by having round areas in the box of only 0.4mm thickness. While the thicker walls print just fine, these thin walls have extrusion issues as you can see in the attached image. What could be causing these issues?
The material is PETG and I'm using Orbiter 1.5 together with A Dragon HF hotend
I've printed 0.4mm walls in vase mode which are fine, the issue seems to be when I have different wall thickness. I've tuned pressure advance as well a retract which were the first things that came to my mind as causes...
Physical waves on print surface
I'm experiencing a new issue that I haven't really run into before. Typically any ringing I get is purely visual; this is physical as well. It seems to start at the seam of this print in particular, and then dampens a quarter of the way after the pattern starts.
I'm running a V-Minion with EVA 3 and the VZ-Hextrudort. I've attached my shaper graphs in case there's something off about them. Running the MZV results for both X and Y. 200mm/s speed and 3k accel on Inner Walls, 60mm/s speed and 3k accel on Outer Walls....
dimples and first layer issues
Hey, using thr v-minion which is a great little printer for enclosure required plastic. I get dimples along each layers side and it looks like there is cooling issues with the first layer. Currently using superslicer stock v-minion profile.
Any help is appreciated....
Underextrusion New Printer
I have a 500 with orbiter V2, mosquito magnum. I followed the guide for the firmware configurations and on first print, it is severely underextruding. Manually toggling extrude seems fine. I want to make sure I have everything configured correctly before I go brute forcing things in tuning.
an update: increasing the flow in slicer is not making much difference, but the extruder motor is extremely hot only a few minutes into printing a test cube. Also E-steps seem to be about right....
Superslicer external perimeter first
Hi,
I set up external perimeter first in the slicer but it prints internal first, do I need to check other settings too?...
I don't even know where to start. insanely bad quality.
So yeah... I've had a bad time with this. First I thought it was other filaments. Now I see I am having the issues with all of them.
I keep running calibration tests. EM seems to be on point. PA has been set to death using both pattern and tower method. Pretty similar results. Speeds are pretty conservative for a Ratrig. Profile, for now I am using stock to try and root out any issues.
I have run the SHAPER_CALIBRATE command. ...
Box lid doesn't fit
Hi guys! I'm struggling with a box that I realized by myself. My box has a top and a bottom parts that fit together with screws. As you can see from Fusion360 the measures are ok and the two part fits perfectly. But after printed them I noticed that the lid doesn't fit with the box...it fits only if I turn it upside down...I tried to change print orientation, to export from Fusion360 with different orientations but nothing... it doesn't work...could you help me?
Layer shift looking like one motor skipped or slipped
This is the first time it has happened, the photo says it all
Need help dailing in PA and EM after upgrade
Hey guys, I want to tap into your knowledge.
TL;DR: Need help dailing in PA, EM and maybe input shaper?
Since switching to the orbiter v2 and the rapido uhf with the .6 nozzle, I am having trouble figuring out the extrusion multiplier and pressure advance. I am running the exact same setup on my Minion with no issues, so I made the decision to up the game on my Voron. ...
Cubic infill scrapes
im having problems as in the pics. infill doesnt adhere. i can also hear that the nozzle is scraping the infill.
z-offset is correct.
i did a flow calibration with this filament
...
Can't figure out what's wrong. Very poor print quality.
So using the guides over at Ellis, I have confirmed good layer squish. 100mm extrusion length on point. EM set to 0.92 as per the results from my EM test and the top surface is... Acceptable. The PA test gave me a 0.03 result, same as before. I am printing PLA at a measly 120mm/s, and yet the results are a disaster. My infill is terrible and the exterior is just about as bad. And I am pretty sure the EM is still too high even though when I start going lower, I start to get holes in my top layers with 5 layers. Each at 0.2 by the way, with a 0.4mm nozzle.
So what am I missing?
I completely reset my Superslicer today, so the printer profile.is close to stock and the PLA profile is a slightly modified Generic PLA profile based on the Ellis tests....
calibration cube weird defects
i just tried to print a calibration cube, but i get strange defects in x direction. I have already tried slicing the stl with another slicer and placing the cube in a different position on the print bed.
None of this has helped and I still get the same result.
Do any of you have an idea what this could be?...
Trying to print 85A tpu
So I'm trying to print 85A tpu I'm using an lgx lite. rapido uhf, 40mms overall speed, 20 volumetric, no retraction so far, 265C Hotend, e steps are calibrated, dried the filament for 3hours. it looks like undere trusion I'm also not sure why the top layers aren't printed properly
