UM2+ Blobs/ooze

Hi Guys,

Any idea what's causing this to happen? Using an UM2+ with Porto-Pasta Carbon Fibre filament. No heated bed, extruded at 235°C. I can print the exact same part on my other UM2+ with identical settings flawlessly. No idea why it isn't printing on this one. Also having the same issue with my UM2.

Cheers

Rich

    Yeah that was my thoughts as well, but to get that sort of result I would expect at least a 20°C plus temperature error. Can they really be that far out between 2 printers that are the same model?

    Sorted the issue, hopefully on both printers. On the UM2+ it was a partially blocked nozzle, so a couple of atomic pulls solved the issue. On the UM2 with a Bondtech feeder I think its wearing of the drive gears. So just waiting for replacement ones to arrive to see if that fixes the issue.

    great news it sorted

    re the BondTech, I periodically open and clean the feeder gears to remove filament debris with a stiff brush (not metal) - seems to help with extrusion when I have problems

    good luck

        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
