I got more detailed explanation about how to put on a filament spool, and insert it into the hole while opening up the ball-rolling mechanism that grips it!
Hey, just wanted to say thanks for putting this video up. I had a colleague at work that was running one of these, and I’ve used them for a while, but wasn’t remembering how the tensioner assembly went back together after cleaning the knurled roller. Turned out the tension screw was set outside of the housing, when it needed to be inside. 👍
Hello, I have an Ultimaker Connect 2+ and no matter how much i unscrew/screw for the tension, the level doesn't change, it is always "on top". Any tips?
Something is not installed right. Open the whole square up and see if it’s all in its right place. A classic is the hex screws head pushing onto the filament is placed outside of the box preventing it from actually adding tension.
@@RealFakeGuns hey thanks for the answer. I managed to fix right after! I have opened the feeder box and there were a lot of printing material, plus the tension was not correctly chosen. So I've corrected!
35 is going to significantly impact print times. What you should do, when making such a video, is to run your theory through a couple tests and show them. 35,45,55,65 for example. Then you could actually see if something changes except for the print time.
I know it's an old video, but is there also the possability to calculate energy/electricity costs? Since electric energy is quite expensive these days, this would be great. I know it depends much on the Printer, the temperature and so on, but simple by calculating the highest Power oft the printer times the printing time should be a good overview.
I have been looking for the toolhead mount and can't find it anywhere, to buy or even the str to print. I mean the support bracket the is on the machine and you then attach the toolhead. That part. Any help please?
Maybe you can aswer this for me .Changing to PVA brim, should you keep the same settings as Extruder 1. How do you prime Extruder 1 if I no longer use the #1 for the brim. Just got my S5 trying to figure it out.
I have cura 3.6 and I cannot for the life of me find the marketplace. Ughhhhhhhhh. The layout looks nothing like this and none of the videos I've watched are helping
The part I seem to struggle with is getting the new profile to appear in the printer itself. When I go to load materials, I need to be able to select the correct one. If I use a similar material from different brands (ASA for example) should I be seeing two ASA listings when selecting material in the UM3?
That is the stoopidest thing I've ever seen - where it lifts the model off of the build plate. Custom suporrts does that too. The program should KNOW where the f'ing bulid plate is - it's not like you're gonna print BELOW the build plate. And at least allow LOCK MODEL to lock the main model to the build plate. This is just dumb...
Very helpful, thank you. I noticed you had 'Custom selection' when in Support settings. Do you have a full list of what you have selected? For all settings if possible? Or if anyone has a link to 'Helpful custom settings'?
there are several things that could be causing that 1. make sure your filament is dried. filaments will draw water out of the air when its sitting out for too long. when it heats up in the nozzle, it expands into steam and creates backpressure. (listen for hissing and crackling) you can buy a food dehydrator on amazon for about 140 bucks and dry it at 110-120 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. speed and temperature rates. if you printing too fast or too cold, the filament won't stick to the previous layer sufficiently. 3. print bed is too low. make sure its level for the print by turning on skirt under build plate adhesion, and watching how the lines form 4. check the print in cura's preview. walls that are thinner in diameter than the nozzle diameter appear in yellow. scale the model up or use horizontal expansion under the "shell" settings
So I got a SL toolhead swapped in, everything is good, fans run, hotend heats up, but the gears just refuse to extrude. Any advice? I've not found a single thing about this and am bashing my head against the proverbial wall trying to find out why the extruder gear won't run.
Hey,could you please help me how to show cost in creality slicer? i can set the cost of material but i dont see thi estimated cost of product anywhere :/ thanks in advance
If tension is too high, the feeder will grind the filament, causing it to break and/or get stuck. If tension is too low, the feeder won't feed the filament at all, or will feed it too slowly.
ok now what do you do when you have no "Toolbox" option. can someone fucking make a tutorial for windows.......... it's only the more common platform but hey all 10 of you are good to go now.
In most cases the goal of the brim is to make the object stick to the build plate better. By making it PVA the object can quite easily detach from the brim.
