  1. Hi,

    das liegt vermutlich daran dass der Lüfter zu viel Luft auf die Nozzle bläst und das in der Firmware einen Schutz auslöst und den Drucker anhält, falls die Temperatur und die Heizleistung zu sehr schwankt.

    Lass mich raten - auf dem Display steht sowas wie "Error: Temp bla bla irgendwas"? :)

    Wenn ja, dann solltest du einen neuen Lüfterhalter drucken. Ich kann diesen hier sehr empfehlen:

    Ansonsten, damit du erstmal wieder vernünftig drucken kannst, solltest du in den erweiterten Einstellungen "Fan full on at height (mm)" auf 1 oder 1.5 mm einstellen.

  2. Ansonsten ist es _immer_ möglich über einen SSH Tunnel eine Verbindung aufzubauen und eine andere Anwendung von extern darüber zu erreichen. Dafür brauchst du nur einen super günstigen Mini-Server der immer online ist. Amazon AWS gibt es z.b. in der kleinsten Variante umsonst.

    Das löst dein Problem mit "unerwünscht" nicht, aber möglich ist es dennoch.

  3. I tried the tribo filament. I was a bit of a pain to have the print stick to the heated glass. I had to use 3DLac spray (something like hairspray).

    I printed with a 0.25mm nozzle and in the end it clogged so bad I had to throw the nozzle away :(

    Not saying the filament is bad, I was jut too much of a noob to print with it...

    Ahm what? You mention "understand" and I don't get what you say :D

    I printed the square rotated by 45° thus having the infill in straight lines where only one axis moves.

     

    That's the art of confusion... ;)

    I understand. You rotated the object but didn't change the direction the infill was printed. That's an option Cura didn't offer so far (in the lastest open beta they have something going in that direction under 'experimental'). But Simplify3D gives you the opportunity to define the angle for the infill; commonly known infill directions are set as 45° and -45°. If one would change the infill direction to 0° and 90°, i.e. parallel to the x-axis and the y-axis of the printer, one could separate the two axis from each other and check for axis-specific issues.

    I hope, it's now at least not even more confusing... :)

     

    Alright I do understand now. Then you're right, I didn't test that.

  5. @Nicolinux: Just to make sure I understood it correctly: You printed the object with different orientation but the infill was still produced by moving the x and the y motor the same distance, right? You didn't print it the way that infill was mainly only produce by moving the x-motor OR the Y-motor?

    Ahm what? You mention "understand" and I don't get what you say :D

    I printed the square rotated by 45° thus having the infill in straight lines where only one axis moves.

  6. @Dim3nsioneer: I have the +Kit with the 35W heater and the new coupler type. That thing is only a few weeks old and I din't print much. But I had this "banding" problem with the old UM2 head too and there I already used a 35W heater (but an old-school coupler).

    @neotko: The story is a bit different. I didn't swap the x/y rods, only the thin rods that came with the +Kit.

    In my quest to find a solution for the "layers not touching" problem I swapped a lot of parts and tried many things. Then I had a very big print job with XT-CF20 which ate some couplers and a bit of my nerves :)

    @IRobertI: The temperature is solid, even better than my regular print head with the 35W heater.

    The weird thing is, when I got the printer for the first time and although it had that "layers not touching" problem from the get go, it could still print very smooth walls with zero "banding" (see the comparison pics in the first post here in this thread).

    So something must have degraded/happened that produced this problem. At least I can say that replacing the linear bearings and smooth shafts with more expensive ones (and tighter tolerances) doesn't help.

    I hate debugging through exclusion :)

  7. Bad news everybody. I've swapped the linear bearings and smooth shafts with expensive ones from Misumi. I have also replaced the brass z-nut. The print quality didn't change at all :( :(

    So it must be something else. D A M N!

  8. Vielleicht wurde das schon bedacht, dennoch die Frage. Statt einer Wasserkühlung könnte man nicht ein Peltier-Element einsetzen? Die Hitze kann ja problemlos nach hinten ausstrahlen wenn man das über heatpipes transportiert.

    Ich weiss allerdings nicht ob die Kühlleistung ausreicht.

  9. The play in x-direction is pretty easy to fix. Take a close look at the pulleys that are fixed on the x-rods. They should sit flush next to whatever is on their left side (a black spacer most likely). If that's not the case, loosen up the pulley and move it outwards until it is flus. Repeat this for all pulleys and take care that the toothed belt does run straight.

    On my printer one spacer was too short so I printed one myself - works perfectly.

  10. I have no idea what happened there other than maybe a bad batch of filament that either drew too much moisture or was otherwise damaged.

    Whatever you do, do clean the long z-screw because a fine strand of ABS did attach to it and if you move the bed up now, it would get caught up in the z-nut.

  11. Oh this thread is still alive!

    I have installed the UM2+ extrusion upgrade kit and the issue is gone. So at least I can say the frame is not at fault (because that's still the same) :D

    Before upgrading I put the printer through quite some hardship and printed a LOT with XTCF-20. I noticed the knurled mantle on the feeder motor was worn out a bit. It make sense if that's the cause because then the feeder wouldn't be able to transport enough material.

  12. Nun wenn du bereit bist einen zweiten Extruder "dazu zu hacken", dann sollte das Aufmachen des Feeders kein Problem sein. Da drin befindet sich ein Kugellager, ein Ritzel welches das Filament antreibt sowie eine Feder die alles unter Spannung hält. Beim UM2+ hingegen wird das über ein Getriebe übersetzt. Das kommt noch dazu.

    Schau dir mal die Bauteile-Liste an.
