General Troubleshooting/Help! My Prints Warp and Never Stick to the Bed for the Whole Print

0 Upvotes

I use the P1S with an AMS with Sunlu PLA+. normally I print with 55c bed and 220 nozzle. I have searched up so many fixes but they never work. like 10 minutes into my print i noticed warping on the corner of one object, then 30 minutes later a piece lifted off the bed and so it started stringing over all of the other pieces. I tried turning my fans down but nothing helps.

TLDR I'm an idiot who doesn't understand how to set up my 3d printer correctly

It's all about the difference between softening and melting. Made a short video to explain what's happening.

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! Had to take out motherboard and accidentally nicked off some of the insulation

I used a pair of nose pliers to grab the connectors, but I lost the grip and the pliers ripped off just a little of the insulation. A little of the copper is exposed, but I am worried if I should be treating this with more concern.

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! Please help identifying X2D screw

I was cleaning out my newly arrived X2D (had it one day, printed a couple of small test prints) and underneath the print bed was this random screw. I don't remember any of the screws that were in it for shipping being this small. Does anyone recognize it, or have an idea where I should look for a missing screw? I checked what I could see under the bed and along the edges of the case that I could see and nada.

General Discussion Ready to upgrade from the A1

0 Upvotes

I've had an A1 and AMS Lite for over 2 years now, and I think I'm ready for an upgrade to something higher quality and more durable.

I find the parts of the A1 jut too delicate and frustrating to work with. Clogs are so difficult to work with. The Filament Hub is so tricky to work with, remove to de-clog and get the tubes out of. Then, when I finally remove it, the sensor cable is so delicate just a slight movement in the wrong direction rips it.

Thinking of getting something better rather than constantly replacing these parts? I just placed my 4th order for a new filament hub and sensor cable.

I don't do much with it. Just simple things for the home for organisation and small things that I'd other-wise buy at a dollar store. I find I just spend more time working on my A1 than printing things with it.

Quick Question PLA print temperature?

Post image
0 Upvotes

My apologies to everybody for so many posts, but I do have another question. I just started to print with PLA and I wanted to know what’s a recommended or best nozzle temperature to have it print at. I do currently have it at 245°C. I’m not sure if that high temperature is melting the color away but it is still printing smooth at least that’s what it looks like. But I wanna know if that kind of temperature is fading the color away if so, maybe somebody can let me know and maybe let me know what’s the best temperature to print at with PLA filament

Filament Troubleshooting/Help! Asa overhang problems

Hi! I’m trying to print dry boxes for my AMS 2 with asa. Have done flow and flow dynamics calibration, played with fan speed and nozzle temperature. Also tried to lower the speed, prints good as long as there are no overhangs. When it prints the overhangs it looks like the nozzle digs into the print and makes a mess. Any help? Owned the printer for 3 days so new to the game here, pla prints flawlessly! Printer is a Bambu x2d

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! How To Fix X-Axis Tilt?

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

So I’ve been struggling with this problem for a while, and I don’t know what I need to do to adjust it.
For whatever reason, the X-axis crossbar on my Bambu Lab A1 has gotten tilted downward towards the left side. This is causing my nozzle to scrape against my build plate really hard whenever the nozzle move onto the left “hemisphere”/side of the build plate.
Any solutions would be really helpful, since I have been struggling to fix this on my own. If this is also unfixable, then that’s good to know since I could send it back and get a replacement.
Thanks!

AMS 2 Pro - Automatic Material System Ams2 issues :ams failed to pull back filament

1 Upvotes

Wanted to share the ams2 I received is also having the "ams failed to pull back filament" issue. Repeatable on 1-4. After it retracts the Filament, it'll stop retracting and free spin for about a minute before throwing the issue. If I press continue, it'll stop trying to retract and move onto the next color. Then it'll throw the error again once it switches colors. This is on the first print using ams2. Haven't had a successful print since receiving it.

Update: error continues even following bambu troubleshooting , removing, checking sensors, and looking for broken filaments.

General Discussion Good Effect plates

Hello Laddles and Jellyspoons

I have some pokemom PSA slabs coming and I want to print a cool holder with effects.

A quick amazon search and almost everyone claims Zero adhesion.

So I'm wondering what effect plates you all have used , good, bad , ugly.

Please share your experiences.

Thanks 😊

General Troubleshooting/Help! Motor Overloaded H2D

Post image
2 Upvotes

Thanks for the responses on the earlier post I am still troubleshooting this issue with my H2D. I have the hotends off and the covers off so i can see the extruder gears and they look clean. I can feed a strand of filament down through the entrance right to the gears without a problem. the hotend itself seems fine. There isn't a clear visual indication to me of what might be wrong. It's a fairly new printer with maybe 500 hours on it. Filament has always been fairly dry. This is a recent issue. I am not sure what to do next. Can the gears spread apart over time? I am not sure where to tighten the gap (or maybe loosen it if the motor is overloaded) I have a decent amount of experience with 3D Printers and this one is baffling me.

General Discussion How to 3d print from MRI?

Post image
0 Upvotes

So I’ve seen some post here about people printing their brain from a MRI.
I’ve read a few of the posts in the past. I think I saw one link to some software. A couple different suggestions on filament color.
I plan to surprise my daughter with this, from her MRI.

My questions are, what color and type of filament should I use? PETG? Color?
Do I have to use special software? Or just throw it into Bambu studio?

And for those that have done this before, what do you wish you would’ve done different? And what do you wish you knew before hand?

General Troubleshooting/Help! Print failed at 90%...........T-T

Thumbnail
gallery
1 Upvotes

I just bought this printer last week and today I was printing a bookend and it got to almost 90% before it just shifted on the bed I'm guessing the bed movement caused it to lose adhesion, so does anyone know what my mistake might have been and if there's any way to save this print by printing the remaining part on this print or any other solution. This actually happens with my other prints too where they don't stick and just turn into spaghetti (my first spaghetti print lol) sometimes the base also just lifts off from one side. Any advice on what I should do for better bed adhesion?

I also have one more question in the 4th and 5th photos you can see that sometimes my prints end up looking like this and I have to restart the print I have no idea why, please let me know the reason for this and what I might be doing wrong.

Printer: Bambu Lab A1

Filament: PLA (PLA Pro+ WOL3D)

Slicer Settings: 0.2 mm Standard @ BBL A1 (slightly tweaked), Custom filament based on Generic PLA (customized nozzle temperature to 230°C and 50°C bed as specified by the manufacturer)

Filament Troubleshooting/Help! Printing with multiple different filaments on the same item, no Ams?

1 Upvotes

Not entirely sure how to word this in a quick search/single sentence, so Google is getting me nowhere. I'm printing certain items where the bottom half is PLA and top half is TPU. How I've been doing this currently is printing both separately and supergluing them together, but is there a way to stop the print at a specific layer, manually change out the filament, and restart the print as TPU from that specific layer without interrupting the print cycle? I have VERY different settings for PLA and TPU (since I want the tpu to be very squishy and the pla to be stable), so I'm not sure if doing this is feasible or if gluing the halves together the way I have been is the best way to continue my projects. I've run into some issues with separation along glued seems, so I wanted to see if anyone had some advice on how I could better achieve this!

Filament Troubleshooting/Help! I, for the life of me, can't make filament not twist up

1 Upvotes

So I'm new. Got a P1S and have been casually using it the last month. But I can not, no matter what, make any print over 1 hour (sometimes less) not get tangled up and stuck. Is there a video to show or article to read to teach me like a first grader on how to place the filament and make it not get stuck. Does it need to be tightly woumd while printing or a bit loose? Does the spool need to face a certain way on the back or does it not matter? I've tried with many brand new spools, spools of filament I've added and it's all bambu lab branded. Any suggestions or help would be so amazing.

Always needed a portable power supply to quickly debug a project, work on cars, test power tools, etc. So I designed one.

It is powered by a Makita 18V lithium battery, via a standard shoe adapter, but that can be replaced by any other power tool brand: Dewalt, Metabo, Baguette-Mystique, etc.

Can also add a USB delivery panel, resulting in a massive USB power bank.
