wow thanks for the responses. I have the original 0.4mm nozzle and I'm using the following settings:
Layer height 0.2, shell thickness 1.6, Bottom/ top 0.6, density 33%, Temp 210 (PLA), bed temp 55.
Sorry. I'll try again, try https://www.dropbox.com/s/wp8j478yv5um9rz/FanMountMk3.gcode?dl=0'>https://www.dropbox.com/s/wp8j478yv5um9rz/FanMountMk3.gcode?dl=0 one. Also https://www.dropbox.com/s/wp8j478yv5um9rz/FanMountMk3.gcode?dl=0 is how the print came out. Pretty poor.
Hi. I've got my original with the dual extruders built both ends are heating well, but it's running horribly. During the first print I could only get the second extruder to work. i.e. I selected the first or the second extruder but only the sond extruded.
I've tried switching the cables, and updating the firmware but neither worked. Then I aligned the bed and removed some of the cable ties I've put underneath to sort the birds nest and the next print came out like https://www.dropbox.com/s/3nbrztu2zrkg4fk/IMAG0218.jpg?dl=0 (using both extruders).
The next print (using only the second extruder) started printing with extruder 2 then randomly switched to extruder 1, and is looking like https://www.dropbox.com/s/oga3eo3ml9alsyi/IMAG0219.jpg?dl=0 so far.
Is possible that the signals are jumping between the wires? Or it is an issue with Cura?
Hi guys. Iam having a problem with my ultimaker original, no material is coming out of either of the extruders at all.
Both the extruder wheels are turning and I have seen bite marks on the PLA.
Both the extruders are getting up to temp
The bed is level
Both extruders are level
Does mean that something is assembled wrong in the hot ends? Do you have tips on what to look for?
Update: I did get a bit of plastic out of extruder one but that is all. It wasn't enough to print it and now there is none again
Hi guys do you have any tips on calibrating the dual extruders to the heated bed? I assume you just do as the wiki says except you don't adjust the 4 corners you use the 3 adjusters?
It is being hampered by backlash in the z drive causing the bed to drop just beyond the limit switch. Anyone know how to remove the play in the Z axis?
Hey Chris. I'm printing PLA at 210 with the bed at 70. The layer height was 0.2mm. Whats the automatic method of cleaning the nozzle?
I had a look at works' Ultimaker today and the extruder is a lot tighter than mine.
I've got the machine running but when I do a print it puts the raft down and then nothing (it just goes through the motions without putting any material out - the extruder wheel is turning but the spool isn't moving). I already had to take the nozzle to work and clear it using a gas axe/ blow torch. Isn't there a direct support phone line at Ultimaker. The emails can take weeks to get back?
