Smokie 0 Posted August 27, 2017 in g code problem? hello, raft and first layer with infill are good the following layer there isnot comming anny fillament out of the extruder design drawn in 123d , converted to stl and g code in cura(tried all versions) were to look fore the mistake? all help is welkom! wr Henk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smartavionics 132 Posted August 27, 2017 in g code problem? More information required! What printer are you using? What version of the slicer are you using? Can you make the model available? photos? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Smokie 0 Posted August 27, 2017 in g code problem? thanks for the reply tried all versions of cura , best results with 16.0.1 came with the duplicator i3 firts results were okay after experimenting with cura the problem of stopping extruder after first layer occ see pictures wr Henk [/media] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smartavionics 132 Posted August 27, 2017 in g code problem? how to upload an STL file? I'm not sure you can, but you could post a link to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smartavionics 132 Posted August 27, 2017 in g code problem? Thanks for the STL file. It slices OK for me and looks fine in the viewer. I haven't tried printing it. Does it look in the cura layer view for you? What happens when you print? When it has printed the first layer does the nozzle continue to move? Does the extruder try to extrude?

In a viewer it looks okay Print starts okay layer 5 and following the extruder stops The movement cont After a few layers its clear that the extruder is not starting anymore Tried in more cura verions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smartavionics 132 Posted August 28, 2017 in g code problem? The fillament is grinded and clogged fore the pfte Well, maybe you're trying to push too much plastic through the extruder and the filament is stripping - try reducing print speed or the width of the lines or upping the extruder temperature.

Smokie 0 Posted August 28, 2017 in g code problem? tried all that,but no result can't reed the G code but i think its what you say ,pussing too much fillament from layer 5 and further but there is no fillament comming out will experiment futher thanks fore the support wr Henk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was drawing the reeds in 123design all from start and saw the options 1)to show the part 2)part with constr lines 3)constr lines only Never paid notions to that but i tried the option 1(part only) After that saved the stl and conv to g code in cura The g gode in a simulation showed a good print and the real print was now also with a good result without allthe problems of the last week So i think the constr lines were the problem in conversion with cura Wr Henk Edited August 30, 2017 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
