What causes under extrusion on a 3d printer?
In its simplest form, under-extrusion is when the printer is unable to supply the right amount of material. You’ll know if your printer is under-extruding as you’ll see missing layers, very thin layers, or layers that have random dots and holes in them.
What causes under extruding?
The most common cause of under extrusion is printing at temperatures that are either too high or too low for your material. If a material is being printed at too low a temperature, it does not melt evenly. This causes a partial blockage of the nozzle, and under extrusion is the result.
How do you treat under extrusion?
If your extruder isn’t pushing enough filament, the most obvious course of action is to increase the extrusion multiplier (or flow) setting in your slicer. By doing so, more filament flows, (hopefully) resulting in satisfactory extrusion. Tweak this setting by 2.5% until you find the right spot.
