Posted · Issue loading filament into Ulitmaker S5

Hello everyone, I am having issues loading filament into our Ultimaker S5 machines. The print head is not extruding the new material whenever I place a new spool onto either of our machines. The material gets fed through the bowden tube fine, it is this last step that is giving me issues. no material comes out of the extruder for the last step. I have performed cleaning operations on the print heads (hot and cold pull), and like I said everything except the last step works perfectly. any help is appreciated!

    Do you have a material station?

     

    When you did the hot and cold pulls, did the nozzle extrude anything?

    check point

     

    1. Is the filament sharp at the end?

     

    2. Take all the filaments out of the equipment and touch the filaments with your hands

         If there is a dent, it means it's stuck somewhere and stopped.

     

    3. The inside of the first borden tube needs to be cleaned.
    The tension of the second push feeder must be increased.
    The third core temperature is preheated manually in advance to proceed with the material input.

     

    4. If you have a tool that can disassemble the print core nozzle, it is recommended to disassemble the nozzle end and heat it with a torch to clean it.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (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.
