  1. Hello,


    my UMS5 Bundle disconnects from cloud after some minutes of running.

    (In Digital Factory and in Cura)

     

    If I restart the printer it work again for couple minutes. After some minutes it says "offline" (Screenshot)


    I think its since the web interface of the cloud has changed some days (weeks??) ago.


    I changed nothing at the printer or my local network.

    It worked nice for months with the exact same network and setup.

    yes, and we did plan that story, but then the argument was made this would take too much time and suddenly writing to usb sticks that then might be too small would also not be super great, so we did make some scripts to do exactly this but you'll have to ask support about it to get them + instructions. This flow does sadden me but testing and integrating this with the update process would indeed have taken a decent chunk of time...
     

    Okey.

    Also 6.2.0  has been released, anyone here install it yet?

    Yes I installed it yesterday. But direkt from the Version bevore 6.1 (skipped 6.1 because of the comments here 😅)

    I printed 2 things yesterday. Till now no issues. (Yes of course the history is gone but...)

    My S5 has never worked on Wifi. Exact same issue. Stays on for some minutes. It has been like this on three separate locations with totally different network setup (one corporate office, one home with fiber modem supplied wifi and one house with a home wifi router)

     

    I have read so many posts here with people experiencing the same. I have never read that anybody has gotten wifi to work on the S5. Is it totally broken? 

     

    The two last locations I solved it by connecting a LAN cable. But at my current location that is not an option. So back to the old days of USB stick :-/

     

    It would be so nice if anybody had a fix for the wifi.

     

    Has exactly the same... Tried it 5 times. After that I used a LAN cable ...till today.

    This update resizes one partition and shrinks the location where we store all the prints in you queue... This does not happen every update, most updates have no such effect, but due to updating the whole OS and in the process everything seems to need more space.

    Is it not possible to safe the data bevor doing this? For expampel plug USB Stick or something? Just as inspiration for future things like this..

    Es kommt stark darauf an welche Eigenschaften du erwartest. Man kann nicht sagen, das ist das stärkste Material, weil was ist stark? Belastbarkeit auf Druck, Biegung etc. da gibt es viele Unterschiede.

     

    Ich empfehle dir einmal in den Marketplace von Ultimaker zu schauen, dort kannst du Materialien sortieren. Oder bei iGo3D findest du auch einen guten Filter nach Eigenschaften vom Filament.

     

    Das Markforged kenne ich nicht, kann daher auch nicht sagen ob das mit dem S5 druckbar ist.

     

    Das Ultrafuse kannst du nicht selbst sintern, das kannst du nur einschicken.

    Genau so ist es. Sehr Anwendungsabhängig.

     

    Persönliche Erfahrung:

    Bei starren Dingen PC.

    Bei eher flexiblen Dingen (und niedrigen Temp-Bereichen) Nylon.

     

    Aber wie gesagt sehr Anwendungs und auch Druckteil abhängig.

    I have a similar problem.

    I use a brandnew ultimaker S3 an the delivered PVA Material.

    Somtimes it is printing fine. But a print in few minutes later the unchanged material PVA brakes mainly in the tube.

    I think this type of Ultimaker material is not the best. How ever it is not weth it is try.

    But it contans some points of weak material where it brakes. It is a mess.

    on the other hand it prints sometimes for houres.

    I had this problem bevore. I changed the bowden tube to the PrintCore to a PTFE tube.

    After this the prints worked.

    But then I dont used it for 2 monts and had the problems again.

    I've never had this problem but I've only gone through about 3 spools of PVA over the years.

     

    I've been told that dry PVA gets brittle and can break.  It might be that your spool is over a year old but I have 1 year old pva that is still fine.

     

    Anyway I would first assume that only the outer meter or two is brittle.  So I would try breaking it manually and then unspool a bit and repeat the experiment for a meter or two (and throw all that away) and see if it gets better.  If not loosing the spool a bit so air can get down into the top 2 or so layers of the spool and leave it out at 50% humidity for 24 hours to see if it can self repair.

     

    Normally the problem is the opposite - it gets too much humidity.  Then when printing, the water is boiling and causing the PVA to foam and act badly (doesn't stick to itself and it's too big and the head can bump into it).

     

    The material is brittle... So I its to dry 🤔?

     

     

  7. Is someone sucesfull and consistend printing PVA with the Ultimaker S5 Bundle?


    I got Problems every print I do with this.

    Now im using Brekaway whenever ist is possible, but sometimes I need PVA. (And of course I bought the Material station etc because of the "good" handling for PVA)


    Some times the PVA broke, and stook in the material station (see Picture), other times the PVA broke at the extruder and the printer says "extrusion problem".

    Other time the PVA was stook in the tube to the PrintCore.


    Are there solutions or experience with this ?

     

    Of course im using original Filament and the Spool is always in the material station

  8. Falls die Temperatur-Beanspruchung nicht groß ist, ist Nylon eigentlich auch eine gute Sache. Kommt wohl aber auch sehr stark auf die Geometrie an. Wenn es reicht fein ist, ist Nylon wahrschein schon wieder zu flexibel. Bei stärkeren Geometrien die nicht brechen sollen funktioniert es aber gut.

  9. Hello,

    two issues I had today with the new Firmware: (dont know if they are specific to 5.8.2, but I nerver had these problems before)

     

    I printed a bigger print over night. With two spools of PLA inside the Material Staion.

     

    After the first Spool was empty the printer pulled the spool back (but not complete, just to the Filamaent sensor at the back), then the printer tried to load the next spool. After this obvously cant work the print failed and shows ER 62 .....

    The other thing:
    Klicked at Print core change, click abort, not working. I had to restart the printer after minutes of waiting.

    I don't think that is a correct summary of what ctbeke was saying. We are looking into security features, but only a password for the web would be just half a solution for everyone who doesn't have their printer locked up in a room. And having only half security is like no security at all. So instead, we are investing this security issue from a wider perspective, so hopefully it will deliver a solution to every user who needs more security. 

     

    If you are suggesting our development team should develop every feature request we get from a user I don't you'll ever see a new product from us ever again and a very strange user interface (based on everyone's individual needs & preferences, but launched for everyone). Instead we hear your request for security, and our response is that we are looking into it but it is not as easy as you might think. Hope this helps to create some perspective! 

     

    I know what you mean.

    And yes its not possible to develop a software for the need of every user.

    But the claim should be the goal.


    But a Password Protection just at the webserver ist not a "half" solution in my opinion.

    And also nothing special.

     


    Its just normal that a webserver have a password.

    My camera at home have a webserver password.

    Also if you can go to the camera and kick it from the wall 😄

    The printer stands somewhere. Nobody is going to the printer to do something with it or watch it.
    But watching this thing while sittion at your working space without standing up...This is what people do....And this would be no longer possible with a webserver password.

     

    If there is a feature to protect the display too in the future ...That would be not a bad thing.

    But as long there is no solution for this... Just a webserver pasword would be a better protection than just nothing 😄

     As a result, you'd also have to deal with authentication on the printer itself, which is much harder due to limited input possibilities (no one really wants to enter a full password on such a small screen). The embedded team is working on some options, but there not just not there yet.

     

     

    Sorry but i totaly disagree...


    For example:

    Printer stands in a seperate room (acess just for autorisated persons)

    But printer is in the local network so that i can monitor it.

    But so everbody else can watch and change things who have acess to the network.

    The room have a door with a simple thing named key 😄

     

    So a simple password protection at the webserver would be a solution for me.

    Like every other Network device I know provide (Cameras, diskstations, Octoprint 😉)

     

    I don't understand why proposals like this always are "impossible".

    The customers who really use your product are the best developer team.
    For free of course.

    I think ultimaker have to be happy to get this feedback.

    Its the best and practical
    feedbak you can get.

     

     

    I just don't know how to say that...

    You get from us:

    Password protection (just at the web server) would be a nice solution to me.

     

    You say:
    Sorry password just on the webserver is no solution for you...

    Hi, thank you for your suggestions. Can you elaborate on why this would be useful to have it displayed in the digital factory too?

    Hi, because of for example today I started a print very quick. Now while the print is printing I wanted to tell the person what it costs. My calculator is based on material, material amount and time. So I wanted to put these information in my excel calculater.

    But I cant get them again when I forgot to wrote it down while slicing in Cura. So I have to open Cura again, put in the model, take the same parameters, slice, look for the material amount.

     

    When the amount would be displayed there I would be much easier for me :)

    Hello, it is actually optimized to do certain processes together to save time. The print cores heat up first to prime the filament to make sure the nozzle is ready to print. This is the strings of filament you see being dropped in the build volume. When it has run through it steps, the machine is certain the filament is loaded, so it can cool down. If it would stay hot, you would get oozing. Oozing is molten filament dripping out of the nozzle, resulting in too little pressure, which would require new priming, or you would get an under extruded first layer. It is possible that it heats up again right before the active leveling procedure, so if there would be any filament hanging on the tip, it wouldn't undermine the active leveling. But it quickly stops again, because we don't want oozing and the previous step just tried to ensure there is no solidified material hanging on the tip of the nozzle. 

     

    Hope this helps understanding the entire process a little bit better. Let me know if you have any further questions or if I missed a step. Thanks! 

     

     

     

    Okey.

     

    But please also look ak the Material Consumption bug.

     

    I want to know how much of each material was used without exporting and reading an csv... and its just not working....-> shows 15g

     

    If I export the CSV and calculate it together i printed about 2000 gramms since my last cura connect reset.

     

    But as shown the value on the webserver is not correct.

    Should we really be careful in future not to update to the latest firmware?

     

    I dont know If I should laught or cry... But thats exactly what I thought when i was reading the experience ....


    And of course I think the procedere bevore was not that bad.

    Th loading and unloading took about 20 sekonds... .I had never trouble with this.


    The procedere to "fill" the exdruder that extrudes about 2kg of material bevore printing is realy annoying.
    Espacially when  you have to cancle a print and you have to wait till this is done and then you have to wait for the bed is cooled down, just too heat it up again ....😅🤦‍♂️

    About 15 Minutes to cancle a print and start it again...And of course it feels like 3h if you have to wait infront of the printer..
     
    "Chinese" Printer pressing reset and starting again.... Print aborded and started again in about 30 sekonds.
     

    And of couse the heating up, cooling down thing...

  15. Every Update I hope for some of these changes...

     

    first the material consumtion is not working. Printed about 10 Rolls... I think it would be a bit more than the shown value 😉

    second:


    The up and down of the Temperature while starting a print.

    I think with a bit more thinking about this it could be more efficient


    For exemple 5 Minutes ago I startded a PC print.

    Lets try to explain what I mean:


    -> Print starting

    ->Heat Bed and Extruder starts to heat, Material is loading

    ->2 Minutes later the extruder starts with the filling the build volume with strings 😄

    -> 5 Minutes later the Procedere is finished

    -> the extruder is cooling down (because the bed is slow -> still heating up)

    -> The bed is on temperature

    -> Extruder heats up again

    -> Auto leveling is starting (the extruder cools down while doing this .. why?!)

    -> Auto leveling is finished

    -> Extruder heats up und the print starts.....


    So the extruder heats up, cool down, heats up, cool down, heats up..

    Not a realy big deal.. but yeah I think Ultimkaer could do this a bit more ellegant.


    For example:


    -> print start

    -> heating bed up

    -> 10 degres bevore the bed is heated up beginning with the loading procedere and heating the extruder

    ->So Extruder and bed got nearly at the same point the temperature

    ->Bed leveling (with NOT cooling down the extruder while doing this)

    -> starting print

     THe lights out function in the material station is NICE. 

    Yes 👍

     

    Also showing a Picture in Digital factory is very nice for a quick look without being at home or connected via VPN

    No, there was nothing changed in the NFC routine. I'm afraid it's pure coincidence. That being said, we do know that there is room for improvement there and we are going to (at least try) to improve the NFC detection of material in the Material Station. If we do, it will be reflected in the release notes.

     

    I think it have something to do with the frozen utimaker screen at the first restart after the update.

    The printer was shown as available but the display was frozen with "ultimaker".


    The material detection problem is most time when the spool is not at the left "wall".

    so im going to left adjust the spools every time.

    But after the printer load the material the spool is where it wants to be :D So the after the next start the problem is there again.

     

    Maybe im going to print somethingthat holds the spool left adjusted.

    But yeah an software update that fixes this would also be nice :D

    After installing update 5.7.3. my UMS5 wouldn't start.

    It hangs with the Ultimaker name in the display.

    After a reboot of the UMS5 there is noithing changed.

    What could be the issue and what brings me the solution?

     

    It would be great to turn down the light of the material station 😉

     

    Grtz.

    Robbert

     

    Had the same thing. Updated yesterday, first print sucesfull, turned the printer off over night.

    Tried to start this morning and the printer hangs at the ultimaker screen.


    After 10 minutes I turned the power off, started again, now it works.

    i hope this was just one time.

  18. @Ultimaker changed something in the NFC routine of the material station?

    Because after the update it works worse than before.

    After power down the printer do not detect 2 of the spools.

    I have to reload them.

     

    Thats an problem because of im starting the printer via remote switch.
