6. 3D printer maintenance
1. Daily maintenance
1) Before using the machine to print, make sure that every safety protection measure are in good condition.
2) Regularly clean and maintain the equipment, try to clean the surface of the nozzle, hot bed, moving parts and
other parts neatly, so as to prevent wear caused by excessive dust.
3) After each repair and maintenance, it is necessary to install the disassembled parts back to their original places,
so as to avoid mechanical failures caused by missing and wrong loading.
2. Basic maintenance
1) Every day before opening the 3D printer, it is necessary to do some inspection carefully: whether the nozzle is
blocked or damaged, the connection line of each part is normal, whether the guideway or optical axis is lack of oil,
and whether the platform is calibrated and adjusted equally. when found rentate in nozzle, you need to immediately
clean up; when parts or lines are damaged or aging, you should promptly replace them; add lubricating oil regularly
to the rail or the optical axis; in the calibration process, if found the screw nut is loose, you should use six angle
wrench, screwdriver, wrench and other tools to tighten it.
2) In the printing process of 3D printer,not only the design of each print model can not exceed the actual print
range of the device, but also can not allow the machine to work in the too high temperature and too much load.
Otherwise, it not only can not print the qualified product, but also damage the machine because the overload work.
3) In order to make you use print better, please pull out the print materials within the remaining extrusion head
after finishing the printing work, and sealed well printed materials to prevent material becom damp and then break
in the nozzle, finally cause nozzle clogging.
3. Transmission components maintenance
When your machine is running, the noise becomes larger and the vibration becomes larger while moving. Then
you need to clean the rail stains and add some lubricating oil to reduce the friction.
specific Methods: first with a clean dust cloth to clean the grease or dust on moving parts, then drop 3-5ml
(about 5-8 drops) lubricating oil, thirdly paint respectively that to the machine or rail axis, and move the moving parts
to and fro, so that oil lubricate guide rail and polish rod.
