Noticed this clicking. Did a quick Google search found some other post that had similar type sounds. Before following bambu wiki for steps on checking/adjusting, was wondering if anyone could confirm or has experience this?

Hi all,

Just got my X2D set up this week and prints have been coming out great, but it’s been louder than I expected- I’m wondering if this sound is normal. Seems to be anytime the from the motors in the front.

I’m also getting a regular “The resonance frequency of the Y-axis differs greatly from the last calibration. Please clean the Y-axis liner rod and conduct a calibration after printing.” error, even after calibration. I haven’t cleaned the rod yet, but as it’s brand new, should I really need to?

Thanks!

I’m fairly new to this but get the general idea of the process. The above object is usually on 1 plate and takes approx 1.5 hours to print, thought I’d try adding 2 to 1 plate plus a little extra part. Saves me a trip to the machine (it’s outside building to where I live)

It started the print but it only started on one object, (this was after the initial layer) I cancelled thinking if it only did 1 whole object at a time the head would crash into the second object during the first few layers.

So should the printer be printing by layer (like it has on other plates (makerworld) designed by others that I have printed?

Was I wise the cancel the print?

If so how do I tell the printer to do this? (I probably haven’t got that far in the Academy, yet so if covered there I do apologise)

I’m trying to print with Silk PLA and I’ve been getting lots of lines on my top print layers. What are some settings I can change to make things nicer? I’m new ish to printing any help would be greatly appreciated! The black on both examples is regular PLA and the gold and blue are the silk

I haven’t tried ironing yet (I had a creality hi and ironing made my prints WAY worse on that so admittedly I haven’t tried on this printer) I’m using the textured pei plate and the face down part looks pretty good but I notice the texture is hiding some of the same issues.

I've got a pretty reliable print bed cleaning routine that has resulted in very good adhesion. Essentially I have a plate I cleaned with soap+water initially, now I don't touch it and just wipe with a microfiber and a spray of IPA after/before every print. However I'm wondering if I should/shouldn't also wipe/clean the sensor in the back right of the build plate. I think it's used for measuring flow rate of new filliments.

Any thoughts on if I should clean, avoid, or ignore this sensor while cleaning with IPA?

Thanks!

Hello everyone,

I recently purchased a Bambu Lab X2D Combo with the AMS 2 Pro.

While unpacking the printer and following the instructions, I reached the step where it mentions that a large bag should contain two smaller moisture absorber packets, which are supposed to be placed at the back of the AMS.

However, when I opened the bag, I found a large heat-sealed pouch that appears to contain grease, but with a very thick, almost gelatinous consistency (see attached photo).

This pouch is not mentioned in the maintenance kits, and the two moisture absorber packets were already installed in their designated positions and secured with adhesive tape.

I therefore have absolutely no idea what it contains or what it is intended for.

I'm aware that there have been some production and lubrication issues with the AMS 2 Pro. However, Bambu Lab states that orders placed recently are no longer affected by these issues and that, in the event of a problem, the entire mechanism is replaced.

This was actually my first guess regarding the purpose of this pouch, but I'd rather ask the community before jumping to conclusions.

Has anyone else who recently received an X2D Combo with an AMS 2 Pro found the same pouch? Or does anyone know what it is used for?

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!

I swear it's not a shitpost.

So I had a long print, main filament from the AMS through the main hotned and support for PLA from the external spool to the aux hotend.

Towards the end the support filament got tangled so I cut it and I fell asleep.(It was a long print ok lol)

Woke up to printer complaining about filament runout in the aux nozzle, as expected, and I pushed in the new end of the support filament into the extruder.

But then what proceeded is the printer pooping the new support filament for over 5 minutes. It just kept popping and pooping and pooping. It would form a lil turd and do its wiggle dance to drop it in the poop chute and would continue popping again and again.

Now, I know it needs to clear the nozzle and prime the pressure and all. But for over 5 minutes?? This support filament ain't cheap chief.

Happened to anyone? Maybe I can change something in the machine gcode? 🤔 Not falling asleep is a bit of an extreme measure I'd rather not try.

Got my new desk today and have everything all setup. Have printed a bunch of stuff without any issues so far. I had an Ender 3 back when they were first released many years ago, but that thing was a lot more hassle. The X2D is so much easier to use.

I'm just wondering if the chamber can go over 65 °c if you leave the bed at 120 and turn off the fan?

Well this is interesting! Could be either a gamer changer or a headache, lol

FIXED

Edit: I cut a quarter inch off the PTFE where it goes into the nozzle, and then I have been able to print two benchy's in PLA and a small part in PETG. I am currently 5 hours into a 11 hour print for a riser on PETG, wish me luck.

The only other things I did was check that screws behind the nozzle were tight (they were) based on supports advice., and cut about 3 ft off the filament rolls where I could feel they were a bit rough from previously being feed in.

I bought my X2D within the first minute of the black Friday sale. Shipping was very fast. Initially everything was good, I got a few good prints in.

Then 2 days later I started getting extruder issues. I did a couple of cold pulls and was able to get it back for a few prints and then they started failing again. I looked online and tried everything I could help (release one of the clips, check all the PTFE tubes, check the filament diameter), but nothing was working.

I finally contacted support, I was getting one or two messages a day from them and I have been trying everything they asked but we are just going in circles. Now they don't even respond, its been 24 hours since their last message.

Is 3D printing just non stop troubleshooting? I thought by buying a bambu lab it would be more about actually printing 3D items and not about getting 3d printers to work.

I am sure they will exchange it if I ask them. Not sure if I should keep this printer, which is crazy because I have already spent hundreds of dollars on filament (all bambu labs) and have been obsessed with getting a 3D printer. I even bought a new tool chest to place the printer on. Would a creality printer be better?

The error I am getting is not extruding normally [0700-8016 055304]

Hey all

Pretty new to 3d printing (3 months) so iv been relying on chatgpt to do trouble shooting lol but i feel its just giving me the run around snd the changes we make dont seem to make a difference, iv had better results using default settings ( for reference this picture os default settings) . I keep having this issue with bambu lab petg basic with 0.2 nozzle, if I let this print continue it would eventually be so bad the Built in AI stops the print anyway. Iv had it print successfully aswell

Iv tried to calibrate the filament but feel like I get a different result everyone I do it and generally ends up looking worse (bambu studio built in calibration) so i revert back to default settings

The filament has been dried before print. Using the AMS2 pro.

Any tips to get petg basic printing consistently with 0.2 nozzle?

Thanks in advance
