Chapter 7 Analysis of common problems
1. Shocked by the machine when using it
The metal-clad machine itself is electrostatically charged, which does not
harm the human body. The reason for static electricity is that there is no
ground wire at home. The solution to this problem is:
(1) Connect the ground when laying wires at home;
(2) Attach a wire to the metal-clad machine (which can be connected to
the bottom of the axis of the Z-axis platform). Guide the other end to
large metal objects in the room. Or ground the printer to the ground
screw of your electrical socket;
2. The print is not adhering to the print platform
(1) The distance between the printing platform and the nozzle is too large
(bed leveling). You can adjust the four horizontal adjustment nuts under
the platform to ensure that the distance is appropriate. The approximate
distance can be the same as the thickness of a business card;
(2) The printing platform temperature is not high enough, Generally, the
temperature of the printing platform using PLA is set at about 60 ℃ , and
the ABS is set at about 100
℃
;
(3) The printing platform does not use high-temperature adhesive tape,
you can improve the viscosity by affixing high-temperature adhesive tape.
(4) The platform cooling fan is turned on too early, you can set this in your
slicer software;
