deformed printed shapes

Posted · deformed printed shapes

Hi all, i've this problem: I created with gcode with netfab and tried to print it Replicator g, but there is a problem of deformation.

I tried to print it in different size, and with different firmware, but always the same kind of deformation.

We use the ultimakersince about one mounth and we had never seen this problem before, like printing the staford bunny, but perhaps because it is a different geometry.

May depend by the tension of the belts that is yet too low?

Thank you all.

    Looks like backlash problems. Could be because of to little belt tension (in both the long and short belts), or a lose pulley.

        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.
