  1. Hi,

    Today during a 3 hour print my cooling fan suddenly stopped working.

    The fan output on the board isn't working anymore for both printing or via the ulticontroller command.

    At first I thought the fan died but I tried 2 other ones but they all didn't work on the fan output on the pcb but did work on the 'always on' 24v output on the pcb.

    The soldering looks fine and board didn't short out or anything like that.

    I restored the board multiple times with no results.

    All the parts on the printer are stock Ultimaker parts.

    Can anyone please help me? I have no idea how to fix this , the board is only two months old and barely used.

  2. I can't find anything abnormal on the board, al the solder dots look good and pins in the connector are as they should be. the board itself is brand new as far as I know. the Z-stage just never worked for me with this one. I'm honestly not really comfortable with soldering a brand new and quite expensive board

  3. Hi,  some time ago my PCB burned out.

    A few days ago I received a new one and connected it to all the components.

    Everything on the printer works as it's supposed to except for the Z-axis stepper.

    Moving the bed down works as it should but all efforts of moving it up results in it move down but at a much slower rate.

    It doesn't matter if I use the controller or the usb cable and cura.

    I reinstalled the firmware en restored the printer via the controller multiple times.

    so in short: if i try to move it down, the bed moves down in a slow and noisy way. there is no upward motion

    Can anybody help me?

  4. There's a 5V fan plug on the board that is what um2 uses to cold the hot area. I use that. There's also another fan plug that was intended to cold the board.

    The only way to plug a 12v it's with two in series (not recommend).

    Thanks for the help.

    Can you show me where to connect it to the board and what to so with the firmware? I have no experience so far with firmware and such.

    I would very much appreciate it!

  5. Hi,

    I want to put a small fan on my printhead to cool the hotend (prevent cloging), for printing materials like bronzefill.

    I order a 30mm fan, https://www.conrad.nl/nl/sunon-ha30101v3-0000-a99-axiaalventilator-industrie-12-vdc-594-mh-b-x-h-x-d-30-x-30-x-10-mm-184263.html?sc.ref=Brand%20List

    The problem is; I have no idea how to wire it to the pcb. I can't use the LED port because I allready use it.

    Can anyone help me out?

  6. Hi people of the Ultimaker community,

    I recently got my UMO+ to actually start printing. The prints look great and the printer is really fast. Although the overhang quality was kind of a disappointment.

     

    I experimented with the temperature of the nozzle and the fan speed a bit but still no nice quality.

     

    As I read online, adding a fan improves the quality of overhang printing. So I want to add a fan. I have two super silent 30mm 12v fans laying around which I want to use for this setup.

    After taking the stock fan off I noticed it was a 24v one and not 12v as I read everywhere online.

     

    Is it safe/useful to use these 12v fans?

    I don’t really have much knowledge and experience with wiring and electronics, can anyone explain me if and how this works?

     

    Happy to join the community,

    Remy
