Offset” value and click the “Set Probe Z Offset” button to correct the gap between the
nozzle and the bed. (“Thermal Offset” is a relative value. The distance between the bed
and the nozzle is changed at a difference set by the “Thermal Offset” value. A positive
offset value leads to a greater gap between the bed and the nozzle, while a negative value
leads a closing of the gap.)
-
Run the NewCreatorK desktop version, connect to the printer and go to the “Control” tab
to check whether Auto Leveling is enabled.
-
If Auto Leveling is in the "Disable" state, click Reset button to initialize the leveling settings
and try again.
-
If you want to adjust only some corner height relative to the edge of the bed, adjust the
height of the bed by adjusting the four knobs at the bottom of the bed. The knob should
be adjusted so that the length of each spring supporting the bed is within the range of
18mm to 30mm.
-
Check that the Z limit sensor located at each Z-axis profile is properly fixed.
[When the pre-heat process lasts more than 1 hour after clicking the print start button]
-
If the front and upper doors of the printer are open, close them.
-
Check if the bed temperature, chamber internal temperature and nozzle temperature are
kept within 5 degrees from the set temperature value.
[When the object does not adhere to the bed]
-
Make sure the temperature outside the printer is in the range of 20 to 25
°C
.
-
Check if the chamber and nozzle temperature are kept within the set temperature range.
-
At the bottom of the print object, create and attach a “Cylinder”-shaped sample object at
a thickness of 0.254 mm (like a brim) so that any angled part of the print object
disappears.
-
Increase the “Brim Line Width” in the slicing setting value within the range of 20 to 30
mm. If using PEEK and ULTEM
™
filaments, allow them to warm up sufficiently in the
oven to ensure a smooth surface without bubbles during loading tests.
[When the support structure collapses during printing]
-
Increase support usage on NewCreatorK
-
To widen the width x height area of the support structure, create an auxiliary structure and
insert beneath the object.
[When the surface quality of the print is poor or the tensile strength is weak]
-
The quality of the print can be categorized as tensile strength and surface quality, and it
is highly affected by the overall printing environment. Please keep the environmental
