How do you know if a nozzle temperature is too high?
If you’re printing too hot (with any filament, not just PLA) you’re going to see stringing and blobs/oozing because the material is getting runny and exiting the nozzle in an uncontrolled manner. Because it’s uncontrolled, you will also likely see artifacts showing up in your prints.
How do I change the first layer height?
If you would prefer the first layer to be squished, a value of -0.05mm will be a good start. For a layer height of 0.2mm, this will give about 25% squish. Another way to think of this is that 100% of your extrusion will be forced into a space that is 75% of the layer height.
How do you adjust Pinda height?
Step 2 P.I.N.D.A. Make sure that the nozzle is not scratching the surface during the movement! If it does, rise the right side of the X-axis by rotating the right Z motor slightly clockwise. If an adjustment is needed, you can lower the nozzle height by rotating the right Z motor counter-clockwise.
What is the hottest layer?
thermosphere
The thermosphere is often considered the “hot layer” because it contains the warmest temperatures in the atmosphere. Temperature increases with height until the estimated top of the thermosphere at 500 km. Temperatures can reach as high as 2000 K or 1727 ºC in this layer (Wallace and Hobbs 24).
Is the nozzle too high while printing or levelling?
Thingiverse Groups Creality Ender 3 General Nozzle too high while printing, but perfect when levelling. Nozzle too high while printing, but perfect when levelling. The title say it all to be honest. I start by auto homing, then I get a post it note and level it.
Is the nozzle too far from the bed?
The nozzle isn’t too far from the bed, and it is equal everywhere. However, the moment I go to print the nozzle is quite far from the bed (enough that adhesion is a problem)
Why is the print nozzle on my 3D printer too high?
OK I know it sounds like an obvious bed leveling issue but it’s a bit different. I have other 3D printers so I’m used to bed levelling. I set the auto home then disable the steppers and manually level the bed using the sheet of paper technique.
Why does my printer leave extruder at raised height?
When the code was left in it seems the machine left the extruder at that raised height before starting to print. After I deleted it the extruder went directly to the print area leaving a string of extrusion from the home point to the print area.
