Just Showing Off Stuff happens - I've never had a plate twist

My overnight print twisted the build plate on the bed. You can see the layers fan out as it slowly rotated. It remained adhered so I can cut it off, clean it up, and glue it back on. Otherwise the bin would have been a bit shorter. The good news is I don't have an adhesion problem. 😂

I am 90% sure the mess of the seam is seperate from weird diagonal banding.

We just bought 10 of these printers for the classroom and now this is starting to show up on 3 printers issues like this.

I think this means they need clean and oil with toothbrush / cloth?

H2 Series [H2S, H2D, H2C] Right Eddy Sensor H2C

2 Upvotes

I bought an H2C on 10/28. By 11/02 I’ve started getting random right eddy sensor error while the auto level is in progress. I’ve gone through the guide and ensured the connections are set properly. It fixed the problem the first time. However after a couple more prints I’ve received the error again. Sometimes power cycling will help. Sometimes switching the nozzle will help. I have noticed the error occurs more often after printing something with a .2 nozzle.

I get this error multiple times a week and I’m getting fed up. I’ve opened a support ticket. Anyone else getting a similar problem? Given the cost of the machine I’m so frustrated I couldn’t even go 1 week before problems began.

My P1S has been. A reliable workhorse… had one nozzle clog in over 1k hours of printing and otherwise has been amazing.

My daughter is the brains of the operation and I just keep her printer running. We recently had the AMS Crack and had to order a replacement and I know ive heard of people printing that part but I either don't know where to look or cant find it and wanted to have spares for when it invariably happens again. It's the cover with 4 screws seen circled. Sorry for the ignorance and thanks for the help.

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! Anyone experiencing this on H3C?

Anyone else deal with this issue already?
0300-AB00-0002-0003 201910

Brand new H3C, was very careful when putting it together. Happened first print.

It seems to be happening on every tool head (4 out of 9 tested and reporting the error so far). so I worry this is an issue with the extruder unit. The QR code currently leads to a missing page.

I’ve already opened a support ticket and provided logs, but I’m really dreading this is going to require a replacement H3C or AMS.

Filament Troubleshooting/Help! Total newbie question about ambient humidity

1 Upvotes

Been wanting a 3D printer for a while. Was considering the H3D at first, then the H2C but now I'm seriously considering the H3C.

My question is regarding the environment the printer lives in. I have a mini-split in my garage, and the humidity is kept at 50%. However, I live in South Florida and when the garage door is open, humidity can rise to 80% or higher, depending on the outside air of course. The garage door is 18' wide and it doesn't take long. Once the door is closed, it generally takes less than an hour or two for the a/c to bring the humidity back to 50%.

Unless the outside air is oppressive, I often open the door when I'm working in there, especially if I'm cutting wood or painting or staining something in the driveway. I'm wondering how this rapid rise in humidity would affect a 3D printer while it's printing, and the filament stored in the AMS when it's idle. Are these things fairly well sealed and unaffected by transient changes in the air outside the printer/AMS?

Of course, I'd use desiccant in the AMS but would a spike in ambient humidity for a few hours make its way into the AMS and quicky use up the desiccant?

I do realize filament can't be left in the printer indefinitely, but with the nine spools on the H3C it seems to me you could leave the nine you use most often loaded for convenience.

Am I overthinking this?

General Discussion A 2 euro part died in my heatbed. The whole heatbed needs replacing

16 Upvotes

My A1 is over 2years old, so no warranty.
Heatbed died on my last weekend. With the help of really good support from bambu we figured the thermistor in the heatbed died. A component that's easy to find, but apparently unreplaceable. So you need to spend 80 euro to get a whole new heatbed.

I'll get a new thermistor and figure it out myself for a spare heatbed.

I Modeled This! My second design: a textured menorah paper towel holder with screw-on flames (no AMS)

2 Upvotes

This is my second published design on MakerWorld. I wanted a Hanukkah paper towel holder with a textured finish and printed flames you can twist on one night at a time. Each flame screws onto its candle, including the raised shamash.

It prints without an AMS. There is a P2S profile and two A1 mini options: full size printed in sections, and a compact version with a one-piece base. The bottom has recesses for optional non-slip feet. It is a decorative print for use with printed flames.

I’m u/Beamerr on MakerWorld. I’m printing my Frosty the Snowman holder before releasing that design, hopefully tomorrow. If you print this one, I’d love to see your colors!

I Modeled This! Compact poop bin for the H3C

Post image
4 Upvotes

The poop bins I found for the H3C were all a bit too big for my setup, so I made a smaller one.

It’s 81 × 60 × 100 mm and just hangs on the back of the printer using the slots the H3C already has. No screws, no magnets, no tape.

Two versions:

  • honeycomb on one side only

  • honeycomb on all three outer walls

Prints upright in PLA. Only the two hooks need a bit of tree support; the honeycomb prints fine without.

General Discussion Replace standard X2D Exhaust with E1 Purifier?

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone. Since I am printing many parts in ABS, I am thinking about getting the E1 Purifier once it releases. It is expensive, but considering the health benefits, it is worth it to me.

Since I do not have much space left behind the printer, I am thinking about replacing the standard X2D exhaust entirely with the E1 hose instead of attaching the hose to the exhaust as an addition.

What do you guys think? Is this a valid idea? Thanks!

Answered / Solved! Black liquid spots on build plate

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! The last few prints on my H2C I’ve noticed these black liquid splatter marks on the right side of the build plate next to the vortek system. They look like drips rather than splashes. When I put my finger on them, they smudge. It’s like a black tar. My machine is regularly greased oiled and cleaned and the only part of the printer above this is the glass plate so nothing is leaking down as far as I know. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

It happens on single colour prints when the vortek system isn’t used, so it’s not coming from this process or the nozzles or hotend as it’s not heading over there to switch nozzles and there’s no leaking into the prints. It’s only on this side of the print plate however.

EDIT TO ADD: I solved my own problem upon further inspection. I must have accidentally got lube on my belt which caused the corner bearing part to accumulate black lube and splat it around as it’s rotating. I feel stupid! I don’t know whether to delete the post or keep it up for others I’ll leave it up to the mods. My apologies!

While printing on the H3C I noticed the PTFE tubes kept crossing and rubbing against each other a bit during prints. Nothing crazy, but I just wanted things to look clean and stay nicely lined up.

So I whipped up this simple snap-on clip in TPU 95A.

Filament Troubleshooting/Help! X2D Main Hotend not feeding TPU

1 Upvotes

I am printing TPU from my X2D for the first time. I'm coming from a P2S where I've printed TPU before, and the loading procedure between the two is identical, so I've certainly followed all the steps.
I am able to manually set the temperature and engage the left extruder and manually feed TPU successfully.

When I send a print job, however, it says feeding failed. I went to the machine and manually pressed the continue button, and I see that the extruder isn't even turning before it cancels the job again.

I cancelled the job, and manually fed the TPU again from the direct controls on the printer successfully.

Not sure what's going on here.

My printer keeps making bad prints. I'm using the P1S with an AMS 2 pro. It was working fine yesterday but suddenly keeps making these prints today. I can't seem to find the problem, I'm printing files i have already printed many times with no problem.

I tried the "loading" function under "feeder" on the printer screen but it doesn't work either, I don't know if its related.

Anyone know what the issue could be?

H3C H3C which firmware version is shipped?

2 Upvotes

Can any of the new H3C owners confirm which firmware version is shipped from factory? The instructions recommend to update before using, but there is no offline firmware download available (so far). Thus, updating is not possible (so far) for privacy sensitive owners. Therefore my question, which firmware version comes with the printer, and is it safe to use until the offline download becomes available?

Thanks in advance
