Nozzle Oozing at the threads

Hi all, doing my first prints with a freshly built VC4 500mm and noticed after awhile that the filament is oozing past the nozzle threads. I thought I correctly tightened it so I’m not sure why this could be happening. Could it be a print setting that is pushing too much volume? This is with the 0.6mm nozzle and the high flow attachment. Honestly this is the first printer I’ve ever built so I’m still pretty green when it comes to troubleshooting these issues....
Solution:
Do a hot tighten by heating up the hotend to 300 degrees and then tighten the adaptor and nozzle. I would suggest cleaning the plastic in the threads first. You also installed the short silicon sock, check the box of the Rapido, there should be a longer one which is used when the high flow adaptor is also installed...

Extruder temperature not right

Hey! I have a V-core 3 500 that was already assembled. I updated and flashed the board and did everything according to the RatOS configuration website. When I turned the printer on, everything seem to be working expect for the extruder temperature. Right after I turned it on it says that it is at 159°C (even though it is at room temperature). And when I try to put it to 180°C as soon as I feel it heating up, the klipper shutdown and presents an error saying that the extruder was not heating at the expected rate. ...

Y linear rails offset or profile twisted

Hello. I have had my V-Core 3.1 Drucker for 3 years. The two linear rails for the Y axis have never run really smoothly since they were first installed. Now I reassembled the printer for the third time new and here's what I saw. If I only attach the 2020 profile to the right joiner plate and move back and forth, the profile remains slightly below the left joiner plate, but is always at the same height. But if I mount it to the left joiner plate, the height on the opposite side changes when movin...

Load filament after reboot/restart

I upgraded my v-core 3.1 with the new rat rig toolhead in standard configuration with orbiter 2.5, rapido 2 plus uhf, ebb42 toolboard, beacon AND orbiter filament sensor. Works really great, also automatic filament loading (inserting filament) and unloading (button). But every time the raspberry boots or the firmware is restarted while filament is already loaded in the extruder/sensor the load_filament macro is executed. How do i fix this?

Hotend temp and power osscilating even after pid tune

I recently upgraded to the ratrig toolhead 1.0 on my vcore 3.1 and I PID tuned my hotend at 55% fan speed (I print at 50 normally and 60 for bridges), 215 degrees, and with filament inside. during print the temperature oscillates +- 1 degree and the power oscillates wildly. Is this normal or does this have a fix?

Kind soul able to examine my crowsnest.conf to help get my 2nd Camera working (2nd non-VAOC Camera)

Hi I wondered if someone could give me some times on how to get my second camera working. I got it working easily with my vcore 3.1 but my new vcore 4,0 IDEX has a VAOC and I think thats interfering with things. I tried to follow this video guide but I dont seem to be able to pick it up after a reboot. I have shared my crowsnest.conf if it helps, its camera 2 I'm trying to get working.

Regular toolhead disconnection

It could be T0 or T1, I have experienced the various crash from both Toolhead. My setup is that I lengthen the USB cable using a CLIFF Connector feedthrough connector to connect to a remote control box. cable length is 4m. I have a USB hub comming that can be powered I plan to have it on the printer, and bing powered by a 24V power rail. hopefully it can sort the issue. @Rubino25 mentionned it could be caused by the PTFE tube. ...

Bed not heating - heater_bed not heating

Hello everyone, my bed was working smoothly. Late night I was burning ASA so my bed was working between 110-105C. I put it to heat and then this message appeared. I checked other posts and probably it's the thermal fuse. So I have two questions: 1) What are the specs of the thermal fuse, just in case I have to change it? 2) Can I, instead of using a thermal fuse, use a thermal switch? Because if it keeps going off (I plan to work with Nylon a lot) I don't want to keep changing fuses. ...

Clicking noise when moving gantry

Hi guys, I just finished my build of the v-core 4 500 hybrid and encountered the following issue: Yesterday I did the z-offset test print and skew correction. Today I wanted to run a quick print job and now the printer is making clicking noises when the gantry is moved by the motors or by hand. Releasing tension on the right bottom tensioner seems to make it better....

Fan stopping when klipper shows 70%

I'm having issues where the part cooling fan stops completely while klipper shows 70%, I can't figure out what is going wrong. I'm using orcaslicer 2.2 and latest klipper/ratos. When I'm not printing I can control the fan perfectly with the slider from mainsail. Anyone has any ideas? In the slicer preview it never goes to 0% fan....

VAOC Chicago Bolt Doesn't Fit

I have the VAOC hardware kit 1.0 and use the standard idex prints, the male Chicago Bolt doesn't fit in my print. I tried a M4x10 Countersunk bolt but it doesn't allow the endstop enough travel to trigger it.
Solution:
Well if anyone else has this issue I re-modeled the VAOC body to use an M4x10 that you will likely have leftover from the hardware kit (belt clasp) It now has enough space to use for the endstop.
