Good evening. I attach two profiles with which I printed the objects in the photos. For both cases I used the cube with only one part to calculate the flow rate. with the 0.4 nozzle the result is acceptable to me, especially the size is almost close to perfection: the external diameter of the cylinder should be 13mm and instead it turns out to be 12.8mm. with the nozzle 0.8 and its profile things get worse both aesthetically and dimensally: 1) in correspondence with the layer change the material protrudes outwards leaving a hollow inside (unfortunately the photos are a bit blurry). frankly it's the first object I've printed with a "layer height of 0.4" but I don't think it's a defect linked to this 2) the most serious defect for me is the dimensional error: now the diameter is 12.6mm. Too much for my needs. I also tried to set a flow rate to overextrude but the object is always undersized (furthermore it doesn't seem like the correct way to go even if the problem had been solved). I could perhaps use "scaling factor shrinkage compensation" but even in this case I don't think it's the right way. Could the print speed be too high for a 0.8mm nozzle? I don't think so since the flow test suggests I reduce the flow contribution. Last clarification, I have never calibrated the e-steps because the topic is decidedly unclear to me. I await your help.

Good evening. Sorry for my English. I attach this photo and related print profile. The surface in contact with the support is very bad. I would like to point out that it is in this condition even before removing the supports. Thanks for your help EN3MAX_PIASTRA AERAZIONE SENZA LOGO.3mf

CIAO! Come al solito risolvi tutti i miei problemi! Per fortuna ti ho incontrato! Ho seguito entrambi i vostri consigli e questo è il risultato (allego foto). Sono veramente felice! Il problema adesso rimane solo il viso a contatto con i supporti che è veramente brutto. Riscontro lo stesso problema anche con il PLA ma in una forma minore. In entrambi i casi il supporto è un po' difficile da rimuovere ma la superficie di contatto risulta poco stampata anche prima di rimuovere i supporti. Allego foto e profilo aggiornato con i vostri ultimi suggerimenti. MILLE GRAZIE profilo.3mf

As always I apologize for my English. However, I ask that you write to me in English. I attach photos and profiles of these caps printed in PETG. The surface at the top has regular roughnesses which if you try to remove with abrasive paper do not disappear because they also persist on the inside. If you enlarge the image in the slicer as much as possible, it appears that there is a uniform space between the filaments. If I load the same object with a PLA profile the gap seems to disappear. I checked and the TOP/BOTTOM settings seem to match. The problem is that with these grooves it becomes almost impossible to paint the object as the paint penetrates the cracks.

Thank you so much for your answer. For the future, don't worry about writing to me in Italian. I have difficulty writing it but I read it and understand it quite well. Furthermore, to improve my English in this new way I prefer to keep CARE in English

Allego il mio primo pezzo stampato in PETG. Direi che l'adesione è stata buona anche se forse c'è un po' la zampa di elefante. Il grosso problema è "l'incordatura". Allego il mio profilo stampa. Stampo con un Elegoo Neptune 3max Chiedo il tuo aiuto Mille grazie EN3MAX_Stringing_Test_PETG.3mf

I AM SPEECHLESS! Truly super helpful and very competent!! since you are currently the only one to answer my problems I'll ask you the next question: starting from the printing profile you suggested for PLA, what changes would you make to print PETG? From what I understand the salient points are the retraction and the power of the fan. Consider that I am looking for solid objects... I can improve the aesthetics in post production with a little sandpaper and painting. Thank you in advance

I'm sorry for my english. The lower surface appears much more damaged on the printed object than the upper surface. Initially I thought it was a problem caused by the supports (and it probably is). However, observing the construction layer by layer, I noticed that layer number 23 was "missing" some yellow lines. I do not know what to think. I'm a beginner but I really want to learn how to print better. My printer is an elegoo neptune 3max. Thanks for your help EN3MAX_bracctto.3mf

A THOUSAND THANKS!! I can't wait to print with these new settings. Next week I would like to try my first print with PETG because I have to mount a pair of arms on my bike!

Good morning. First of all I apologize for my bad English. I'm a beginner. My printer is an elegoo Neptune 3max. At the moment I use PLA from Elegoo but I would like to switch to PETG soon. Attached is the printing profile that I mainly use. I laboriously built it by taking information from everywhere. It's certainly far from perfect but I don't mind the results. unfortunately what I really don't understand how to set is the "enable bridge settings" section. I can't even make bridges of a centimeter. Is there anyone among you who would be kind enough to help me? P.s. obviously I also accept suggestions on my press profile. Best regards profile settings.3mf
