Temperature drops

[Robert_JK 0]

Hi all,

No one seems to be able to help with the questions I have regarding Cura and my 3D printer, so I turn to you, hopefully you guys can help out.

I'm using Cura as a slicer for my Creality CR-X dual extruder. Since Cura software supports this printer I though it would be ok to ask questions here.

Every time I'm slicing a model with dual extrusion mode on, the nozzle is dropping it's temp on de switch of materials for a few seconds. This gives a few issues so I would like to find a setting where it doesn't change the temp. I created costumes materials in Cura, got the setting for both extruders the same. So I thought I've done al there is able to do in Cura. Maybe someone can help. I've attached the Cura and gcode file. And also a screenshot of the gcode where you can see that the temp is dropping from 200 to 190 for a small periode.

Thanks in advance, Robert

That's a printer with a single (mixing) nozzle, but two feeders, right?

 

My best advise is to use the search function of the settings panel. Search for "temperature" (or "temp" or something like that).

This will show you a list with all temperatures that are configured. There's proably a different initial, finishing or standby temperature set in the profile.

Thats correct, mixing nozzle indeed.

 

I found the different temperature settings in the materials tab! I think this should work, didn't test it yet, but I trust this solves the problem. Thanks 🙂
