  1. I don't wanna use my Ultimakers (S5 and um3) anymore, because of how difficult it became to remove (polymax tough pla) from the buildplates.

    Tried just about anything, new glass plates, different glue stick, different kind of magigoo, 3dlac, ... 

    Working now with bambulab printers, i experience the advantage of flexplates.

    Anyone tips i can try? for the glass plate or converting to flexplates?

    Many thanks!

  2. After some time printing with lowcost Bambu machines, i can't stand the slowness of the old style printers anymore! I reduce printing times x3 or 4 depending on the settings, with at least the same quality, or better. And the filament manufacterers are also making high speed materials, so printing times will even be further reduced.

    When is Ultimaker catching up? I have some S5 and 3 in production, but it is harder and harder to justify their use...

     

     

  3. Same here, just ordered the first Bambu labs. Can't ignore the advantages anymore. If the Bambu labs fits, and UM does not come out real quick, with some real improvements, we will probably fase them out.

     

  4. i have exactly the same issue. At this moment i see 2 possibilities:

    1: a problem in the pre-treatment, i always use the same 3dlac in the same amount, but i sometimes minimise the time between cleaning the plate with water,  and applying the 3Dlac. Now i wait some time so the plate is really dry.

    2: the glass plate just ages, and the surface becomes rough.

    Time will tell...

    Ugh. Please ignore this. After debugging (unimportant details, below), it turns out there was something wrong with Printcore 1, unrelated to either the Cura update or the cold pull. Super embarrassing, and I wish I knew how to delete the initial post.

     

    Debugging steps:

    1. Changed out Printcore 2 (thinking I damaged/displaced it with the cold pull). No change.
    2. Downgraded to 4.11. No change.
    3. Changed out Printcore 1. Everything is lined up again!!!

    Apologies to anyone who spent more than a few seconds reading this post.

    Thanks for updating with the solution, can happen to everyone, so it is a valuable post!

  6. Ik heb met een nieuwe S3 dezelfde problematiek, een melding dat er geen materiaal in printcore 1 zit, terwijl ik gewoon kan doorstarten. De werking van de sensor ken ik niet, moet hier eens in duiken. Print moemnteel wel veel met glitterpla, misschien zitten daar geleidende deeltjes in die de fout onrechtmatig triggeren?

    Hi there,

     

    I’m experiencing multiple failures on my UMS3 since a few weeks now; I think my nozzle is clogging and the boden tube is pulled out of the feeder everytime…

    I’m using a AA0.4 core and UM Tough PLA, just with the recommended settings…

    this also happens with UM PetG and a AA 0.4 nozzle, again with the standard Cura settings…

    Please advise, and help…

    It can be a real "clog", but sometimes it can be the fan in front of the cores not working. Did you check that?

    Hello, i've got an update for you

     

    After many tries i finally made to remove the clogged material inside the new CC 0.4

    I used a pin, heated more the print head and with lot of patience and many cold pulls i cleaned perfectly

     

    I tried again to print but happened the same, after few hours the material gets clogged 

    and i had to do a long cleaning again

     

    i tried on the Ultimaker S5 with material station and ultimaker S3 to print 

    Because i know they have different bowden gears 

    But it's always the same, after few hours it stops printing and get clogged

     

    I'm printing with Paht cf 15 and Pet cf 15  Basf

    i changed themperature both higher and lower, and the speed is very low 30 mm/s 

    The fans are ok, they don't have any problem 

    And i don't have any problem printing with 0.6 CC red nozzles teh same materials 

     

    To me the problem is the bowden system, it is not compatible with 0.4 mm, and talking with my local reseller, he's having the same problems printing with 0.4 due to bowden system 

     

    Can you explain why there are so many problems printing with it? What i should do to print with it? 

    have you noticed this problematic before putting on the market this new 0.4 CC nozzle? 

     

    Thanks 

     

     

     

    Just my 2cents 😉

    In both product datasheets i read 0.6mm minimum nozzle size. I think you can stay trying forever with the 0.4mm, and it will probably never work!

  9. Er zijn manieren om vochtig filament te drogen, niet altijd succesvol, maar je kan het proberen.

    -gedurende een aantal uren op een warme plaat leggen

    -gebruik van een fooddryer

    En voor de rest, je nieuwe rol zoveel mogelijk in de zak houden, met silicalgel. De nodige metertjes erafhalen (cura geeft de lengte aan , ik doe er een metertje bij) Het vacuum trekken heb ik geen ervaring mee.

     

  10. 2  verschillende diameters kan perfect.

    Maar, je zegt dat je nog geen ervaring hebt, is je PVA droog ? PVA neemt namelijk zeer snel vocht op.  Nieuwe rol? Dit materiaal is soms al onbruikbaar 24uur uit de verpakking. (persoonlijk werk ik met een drybox, of draai ik enkel de lengte van de rol die voor de print noodzakelijk zijn, de rest direct weer in de gesloten verpakking met silicagel zakje)
