Hi All
I recently received my ultimaker2 from dynamism , and I have it for about 4 days now...so brand new.
No matter what I have tried, and no matter the part, I always get a visible gap/band around my prints always at about 11mm off the build plate. This causes the print to be weak at that spot, and depending on the part, it comes apart at that point, ie de laminates.
I have attached a picture to show this on a part I was printing. The settings of the printer are all at default for printing PLA.
Before that point, and AFTER that point, the part seems perfect, but always at about 11mm off the bed, a band appears.
I have read many suggestions here, and have tried many, but nothing seems to work. it is as if something is wrong with the Z-axis...at that spot. The machine jogs fine, z-axis screw seems OK, and it does have proper grease...
Can you offer some suggestions as to what might be the issue, or hopefully you know of a resolution?
I printed at 210 for nozzle and 60 c for bed....again, before that point and after that point, the part is perfect....
Not sure what else to try, REALLY frustrated after spending that much on this machine....
