Why is my resin not sticking to the build plate?
Issues with your build plate and the first layer are the most common reasons behind the failure of an SLA/resin print. If the first layers are too thin, not cured enough, or you have printed the model at a fast speed, then the first layer may not get enough time to stick to the build plate properly.
Why is my print not sticking to the build plate?
If the distance between the nozzle and build plate is too big, your print won’t stick properly to the glass plate. On the other hand, if the nozzle is too close to the build plate it can prevent the filament from extruding from the nozzle.
Why does my 3D print not stick to the build plate?
One of the most frustrating problems I have had is trying to get my 3D print in my SLA resin printer to stick to the build plate. There are 6 main reasons that your resin print is not adhering to the build plate.
Why are my SLA prints sticking to the bottom?
I have been working with our SLA printer (Facture Draken) for a couple weeks now printing in makerjuice waxcast. . I have had some successful prints, but the majority (80%) end up as pancakes stuck to the bottom of the resin tray. Some others break in half mid print.
Why are my models not sticking to the build plate?
Some others break in half mid print. I have experimented with laying my models (round circular diks) flat on the build plate, but most of the times I place them on supports which stem from a square baseplate. It seems clear to me that there is allot of force being put on the models while curing on the bottom of the resin tray.
Why is my resin print not sticking to the screen?
One of the major issues behind resin print failures is the distance between the build plate and the actual screen. A large distance means that the print has a hard time sticking to the build plate properly, ending up with a failed resin print. The first layer is the most important part in any 3D print.
