And that's why I thought it would be out by now is there a big 3D printing even still happening this year, where they might launch the new model ? It's getting really silly with all these company secrets (But I do know why), but all it does is frustrate users :( IMO just wait a few months before buying

I don't think so. I'm using big spools of 2200grams of standard white from Colorfabb all the time. All the spools are produced in 2016, so no old stuff.

Hello people, We, at Sevenedge, made a HTC VIVE game that needs some greenlight votes to be able to release our game in the Steam store. The link is www.driftwatchvr.com and we also created a trailer of the game. This is the trailer : So if you a have Steam account? Throw us a positive vote please. These are the current stats of our game, but we could use some more votes Thanks in advance folks! Frederiek

I would not buy an UM2+ anymore because there will be a release of a new machine within a few months maximum. You can quote me on this I'll correct myself. I would not buy an UM2+ anymore, especially when you are someone who wants the latest of the latest products released. Can't wait for the network capabilities they will introduce! How about dual extrusion, probably not sure about this one. I've already reserved a nice spot on my desk for this new machine, can't wait!

I took this UM2E+ printer two weeks ago and not done any handson job till now. Was it a brand new one you bought?

Did you give a new nozzle a try? Maybe it's completely clogged...

That's an amazing quality of toplayer, thumbs up! A lot of work to get it done though

Hello, The bed leveling was ok, I did some tests before posting the first photo. The might look dirty but it isn't dirty, there's only too much glue on the glass. Since I started using clue, I never had any problems with layer adhesion anymore... Anyway, these are a few pictures of the old TFM vs a brand new one. This is how my first layers look like now : UM2+ ext is back up & running in full shape!

I've changed the TFM coupler this morning and that was a good idea from you

what are your other settings? (temp, retraction, layer height, ...)

not bad for your first woodfill print, good job You can try the 0.4 mm nozzle too. The overall quality of your print will be higher. I use these settings : nozzle : 0,4mm speed : 50 mm/s layer : 0.2 mm (I know they recommend 0.27 but 0.2 seems to work fine for me) retraction speed: 40 mm/s and distance 5.5 mm Good luck

Ik heb hetzelfde "probleem". Mijn woodfill prints tot 12 uren lukken, daarna loopt hij bijna altijd vast. Weird :s

Don't think twice, the plus is the way to go. I had the UM2 with the upgrades mentioned by @meduza (not the TFM coupler though, that didn't exist then) but the reliability of the UM2+ is so much better.

You have a + edition with an Olsson block I guess? Do you have a spare nozzle to see if your current one is clogged?

In the end, yes imo....

Nope, ordered the parts from Trideus. The molding part is only 2 euros and the TFM is 12,5 euro.

@Neotko, the TFM coupler is part 2278 right? Do you know the part number of the black spacer? Cause I don't see it in the list of the maintenance kit parts : The Maintenance kit contains: 2288 PT100B Sensor Glas Fiber 2278 TFM (2x) 1699 Fan Pack 1696 Bowden Tube Pack 2313 Olsson Nozzle 0.4mm 1310 Hot End Isolator 1688 Pulley Pack 1154 Glass Plate 1256 Build Platform Glass Retainer Back (2x) 9241 Calibration Card 1255 Sliding Blocks (4x) 1226 Magnalube/Grease 1188 Timing Belt GT2 200 (2x) 1189 Timing Belt GT2 610 (4x) 2283 Heater Cartridge 24V 35W Injection Molding Part/Print Head Aid Sewing Machine Oil

I only use PLA The PLA on the picture is white Colorfabb, max 6 months old.

Trideus doesn't sell the TFM coupler separately... @SanderVG heeeelp?

I'll start with another new nozzle first, i'll keep you posted @neotko

+/- 1500 print hours with this machine
