oozing and retraction problem

Posted · oozing and retraction problem

Hello to all

I opened a post in the "Italian" language but it would seem that nobody has my same problem, as advised I try to open the same in the main section hoping for help in this regard

I have a problem with retraction, I don't know if I am right to open a new thread or if there is already a similar one (I have not found it),

I have practically set the retraction to Cura as recommended in thousands of guides on the internet but I cannot start it, it practically never starts, I cannot understand what I am wrong, the result is the object full of filaments to be eliminated one for one.

These are my settings, after several attempts I discovered that everything was linked to the G-CODE used, with the volumetric MARLIN the retraction function and not even the coasting one are activated, if I go back to MARLIN, the functions are activated but with the the same settings I go from a perfectly smooth and compact object to an object full of imperfections (walls and surfaces in general) that you cannot look at and that I cannot fix.

For now I have an Ender 3 Pro printer available, and I use it as a slicer Cura (version 4.5), as filaments I carried out the tests with both PLA and PETG, same result, perfect but full of threads with volumetric Marlin, without threads but horrendous with the Marlin (obviously flat correctly leveled and test with the Marlin at different temperatures).

Is there anyone who has encountered a similar problem? if yes how did it solve?

Is it possible to insert the settings on the volumetric Marlin to activate the above functions?

I am waiting for your feedback, for now I continue to eliminate the cobwebs one by one.

Last clarification, while waiting for a courteous feedback from the experts, going to check the GCODE produced, it is clear that, even if the retract filament is declared, the "EN" item is never present within the positioning / movement specifications where N is the number of millimeters of retraction.

 

I go back to kindly ask if anyone can tell me why this happens with volumetric marlin

 

doing a test and going to manually insert an E-3 on the file, the retraction takes place correctly (obviously at the point where I inserted it and not where it should actually do it).

 

Waiting for your feedback

      • UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released
        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

      • Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7
        The UltiMaker S7 is built on the success of the UltiMaker S5 and its design decisions were heavily based on feedback from customers.
         
         
        So what’s new?
        The obvious change is the S7’s height. It now includes an integrated Air Manager. This filters the exhaust air of every print and also improves build temperature stability. To further enclose the build chamber the S7 only has one magnetically latched door.
         
        The build stack has also been completely redesigned. A PEI-coated flexible steel build plate makes a big difference to productivity. Not only do you not need tools to pop a printed part off. But we also don’t recommend using or adhesion structures for UltiMaker materials (except PC, because...it’s PC). Along with that, 4 pins and 25 magnets make it easy to replace the flex plate perfectly – even with one hand.
         
        The re-engineered print head has an inductive sensor which reduces noise when probing the build plate. This effectively makes it much harder to not achieve a perfect first layer, improving overall print success. We also reversed the front fan direction (fewer plastic hairs, less maintenance), made the print core door magnets stronger, and add a sensor that helps avoid flooding.
         

         
        The UltiMaker S7 also includes quality of life improvements:
        Reliable bed tilt compensation (no more thumbscrews) 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi A 1080p camera (mounted higher for a better view) Compatibility with 280+ Marketplace materials Compatibility with S5 project files (no reslicing needed) And a whole lot more  
        Curious to see the S7 in action?
        We’re hosting a free tech demo on February 7.
        It will be live and you can ask any questions to our CTO, Miguel Calvo.

      • UltiMaker Cura Alpha 🎄 Tree Support Spotlight 🎄
        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
