Solution:
If your parts are thin-walled or just small, you may want to consider not using the automatic
Empty Build Chamber feature. We also recommend that you generate a fixture with bumpers to support
your part during the automatic empty build chamber cycle. In the screen shown below, the red area is the
fixture and bumpers generated by ZPrint.
Also try these:
•
Check the saturation levels for your powder type. If you load a
.zbd
file, it will load the saturation
values saved for that part, so double check after you load your parts.
•
Check for striped or streaky printing (see
Section 7.10, ’Part Quality Issues - Streaky or Striped
Parts, Delamination’
).
•
Clean the service station and the parking caps. Ensure the printer has cleaning solution.
•
Clean the Fast Axis rail of any debris and reboot the printer.
