What if the filament is not properly discharged?
-
There are a few causes to prevent filaments from coming out well. One of the most common causes is when is clogged. When this
happens, set the extruder temperature higher than 240℃ at [Utilities] > [Preheat Setting], and use [Preheat] function of display menu
to melt the filaments accumulated inside the nozzle, whereby the nozzle can be unclogged. (reduce the extruder temperature again
after use) If the method mentioned above fails to solve the problem, use a hex wrench to unscrew the two bolts positioned at an upper
surface of the extruder and the two bolts positioned at a lower surface of the extruder, separate the two parts and check if filament
scraps clog the nozzle hole. Next, unclog the nozzle hole using a long unfolded clip or a smallest hex wrench provided at the time of
purchase while the extruder is under a preheated state. (do the separation work while the power is turned off after preheat. Malfunction
may occur if fan separation work is performed while the extruder is under the preheat state)
- Malfunction may also occur when the gear extruding the filament is not properly operated. If malfunction occurs, dismantle the
extruder, and remove the wastes accumulated on the gear using a brush such as tooth brush, then the problem can be solved.
- It is also important to set the extruder temperature according to material. If the extruder temperature is too high or too low, the material
may hold together, or may not be properly solved to prevent a smooth output. Be sure to check the proper temperature according to
the used material.
What if the printed object is generated with shrinkage?
-
It is important to control an ambient temperature of printed object under FFF method in which filaments are melted and stacked
at a high temperature and stacked. When an ambient temperature of printed material is low, shrinkage might happen, and it may
also occur if no heat exceeding a predetermined temperature is applied to the output board depending on used material. In order to
prevent shrinkage, the temperature inside the printer must be maintained at a predetermined level or the temperature of printing bed
must be adjusted according to used material.
※ Temperature inside the printer may change depending on the season and surrounding environments.
