5.1 Loading the extrusion gear card, the load is not smooth
5.2 Whether the loading is normal (eg: the tray is stuck)
5.3 Disassemble the extrusion gear, clean the gear, and check the degree of gear wear.
5.4 The PLA print nozzle temperature is 190-220, and the ABS print nozzle temperature is
210-230. The printing temperature required for the consumables fluctuates. If the wire is not
smooth, you can try to increase the printing temperature (such as 200 to 205 or 210 printing) and
try to increase the temperature by 5-10 degrees.
6. What parts of the 3D printer should be routinely maintained?
First, before starting the 3D printer printing every day, you should carefully check whether
the nozzle is blocked or damaged, whether the connection lines of each part are normal, whether
the motor bearings and guide rails are short of oil, and whether the platform is calibrated. If there
is any retentate in the nozzle, it should be cleaned up immediately. If the part is damaged or aged,
it should be replaced in time. Regularly add lubricating oil to the moving parts, and the nut
should be tightened if it is loose.
Secondly, during the printing process of the 3D printer, the parameter settings should not
exceed the limit of the device. Otherwise, the qualified product cannot be printed. If the
temperature is too high or the load is too large, the device may be damaged. There is also a place
where something is wrong during the printing process. If necessary, stop the machine. Do not let
the device continue to work if you want to reprint because of the downtime.
Finally, clean the work after printing is complete. The dirt on the nozzles, platforms, guide
rails, motors, fans, etc. of the 3D printer should be cleaned up. Do not accumulate for a long time
and cause the last bad cleaning.
