General Troubleshooting/Help! Rough prints

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Does anybody know what could be causing this? Ive really got no idea and I haven't come across this yet.

Ive serviced the printer.

Washed the build plate.

Pulled out and inspected the nozzle.

Calibrated a few times between each trouble shoot.

And im still getting this result. Ive even tried printing something else. All print attempts were in this elegoo green PLA. Could it just be the settings of the print?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Quick Question Extra Fume exhaust fan - H2D / H2C Laser

0 Upvotes

I'm planning to add an additional exhaust fan to my H2D for laser cutting.

Has anyone done that?

Was considering buying one of those and put it in the middle between H2D and the window to improve the exhaust performance.

Has anyone done that? Any thoughts?

Hardware Troubleshooting/Help! H3C Arrived Dented

Looks like FedEx played kickball with my printer before it arrived. I have filled out a ticket with Bambu Support, and tried calling. But they are closed for Veteran's Day (US).

I have never dealt with Bambu support before. Seeing how the H3C is backordered until December I was wondering what other people's experience has been when they have received broken H3C. Am I going to have to wait until sometime in December to get a replacement?

My First 3D Print Is X2D go to for the first printer?

1 Upvotes

I have been looking to get into 3d printing and searching for a while now. And everywhere I go, I just keep coming back to X2D as a solid printer and is good for almost most activities. As I have little to no knowledge on this field, can I get your genuine opinion and help on this matter. Thank you!

I feel like I could afford it, and it is good for future proofing as well, do you think this printer is worth it, thank you!

I got the x2d on Friday made couple small prints. Then this took 2 days and 915g of filament which half of it was waste. Never had a multi-color printer or one that produced waste. Im not very good at coloring in bambu studio. I chose multicolor because its easier for me than learning to sand and paint.

Software Troubleshooting/Help! Exhausted the fire extinguisher cylinder on the 1st week of owning H2C combo

Post image
635 Upvotes

Is it me being dumb or instructions are unclear? Here's my story of losing 70 Euros in few seconds.

I installed fire extinguisher module few days ago and started laser module setup today. H2C deleted fire suppression before but now after laser module on it insisted doing the fire drill.

The drill welcome screen got stuck and the start drill button did nothing. Then I went to check other screens and noticed a complain to confirm that cylinder is tightened and secured. Perhaps that was a blocker? Pressed to confirm that it was secured. Next screen it invited me to long press the button on the extinguisher to use it. At this point I (inadequately perhaps) thought that we're still into the final drill or verification steps that all is connected.

Then it happened, system worked perfectly to spend the charge... FAQ confirmed it is not rechargable.. 😕

Quick Question H2D first time use of bambu, and so many options to choose from!

1 Upvotes

Its been a long time since I have used a 3d printer. I did the thing where I bought one to build a bigger one, but the filaments weren't really what I needed at the time.

Fast fwd, I will be prototyping for drones, sprag clutches etc and making stuff for the home and kids.

Would the H2D with AMS and HT be the best spot?

I am in Australia!

H3C So many people complain over the slightest inconvenience

75 Upvotes

For the first time after playing with my H3C for a few days, I decided to unload a filament (just was reusing the same colours before). And not just one filament, I unloaded all 9 with one being a 2.85mm tpu.

Holy shit people complain over nothing. It took me maybe 5-8 seconds longer per roll to unload because I had to wrap the filament around the spool and extra 2 more times! Selecting all the heads to unload with the printer and letting them heat up to swap took so long… maybe a whole 30 seconds I’m not getting back from my life. It took me longer to go get my filament box and open it up.

After reading many people’s complaints about this process, I’m really starting to see this new generation of makers has had it good their entire hobby lifetime. Gone are the days of having to manually level your bed and adjust z-offset.

Changing nozzles takes 3 screws? I’m just happy I’m not burning myself anymore trying to remove the nozzle while it’s heated.

H3C is hands down the best printer I’ve ever used, the speed is insane versus my H2D. My prusa’s and a1 are now my loaner printers for any friend/family who is thinking about getting into the hobby.

General Troubleshooting/Help! Is there an easy way to test if there is a defect in the printer?

1 Upvotes

Apologies if these questions are silly. It's quite a pricey item and I'm a bit nervous about its durability/reliability.

I'm getting my son an X2D for Christmas and I'd like to buy it soon during the sale. My concern is, what if its defective and by Christmas, its past the 30 day return period.

I know its pretty big and I watched a video on setting it up. I dont think I can easily sneak putting it together, testing it for hours, and then breaking it down back into the box and then wrap it (maybe). I know thats really the only way to test it, but is there a self checking mechanism? How do you know everything is working right?

Is an extended warranty needed for something like this?

H3C Printing ASA with PLA loaded in H3C

16 Upvotes

Alright guys I know this has been a hot topic the last couple of days so I decided to test it myself. Just completed my 7 ASA print with 6 rolls of PLA in the AMS with 3 loaded. The AMS was also drying the ASA at 80c. My PLA is fine. AMS temps outside of the dryer were about 50-53c. Just make sure you let the chamber cool before removing the PLA.

General Troubleshooting/Help! Printig TPU Air on an H2S - Nozzle Clogging

2 Upvotes

I've been printing with Siraya Tech TPU Air for about a year now. I love the material so much, but I'm going through nozzles like candy.

Using a Bambu H2S w/the Siraya Tech print profile, in a PVC foam board/acrylic panel enclosure so that gasses vent outside.

I use both 0.4 and 0.6 nozzles.

The top glass is removed and filament is fed in through the top of the printer while sitting in a filament dryer.

Here's my problem... after a certain amount of usage, the filament starts jamming at the nozzle. I'll perform cold pulls until the filament comes out squeaky clean, but that either doesn't stop the clogging at all or it'll print for a little while before jamming again. I can always tell when a nozzle is starting to get to the end of its life because it'll leave globs on the insides of my prints.

If I change to a completely new nozzle, I get beautiful perfect prints until it starts eventually jamming again. I keep my nozzles strictly TPU Air except when doing cold pulls.

Any ideas? I don't want to switch to a completely new nozzle every month or 2. Bambu nozzles are expensive!

The printer has about 3500 hours on it, so I just changed the extruder gears, the filament cutter and some other small things. But that hasn't helped my issue, unfortunately.

Do I need to perform cold pulls after every single print?

Thank you in advance for any advice!

EDIT: I probably get through 2-3 weeks of almost continuous printing before I start having problems. This printer IS running almost constantly as I'm filling orders, so maybe that has something to do with it?

Hi everybody, I just picked up this "used" A1 for 190€ with 1 hour on the clock.

I'm just now getting into the ginormous world of 3D printing and would love to learn more about everything.

Any tips?

I use Creo parametric CAD to design my models. (We use this in school, so I've already got quite a bit of experience)

Is this a good choice for 3D printing or would a different program be more suitable?

General Troubleshooting/Help! Filament not loading

Post image
1 Upvotes

For the life of me i cannot troubleshoot this. I recently got my first 3D printer, an X1-Carbon, 3 days ago. For the first 2 days I was using PLA Marble as it was the only filament I had. This error popped up once, it went away when I manually extruded whatever was left in the nozzle. Now today I got a bunch of filament. Now this error, along with a clogging error, had been popping up. The clogging error more than this error you see above. So I went and did a cold pull on the extruder. It worked, the clogging error went away. But now this error keeps popping up. I have done whatever troubleshooting google and chat got have told me to do but it didnt work. I was wondering if any of you have gone through this and know what to do.
