To solve this problem, you need to unclog the printer. When this happens the printer cannot extrude any filament, or will only extrude filament irregularly. What’s wrong and what to do?Ĭlogged print head: Sometimes little pieces of filament or particles can get stuck within the nozzle on the print head. The print head is only extruding sometimes or is extruding different amounts of filament. In REALvision Online you can easily change the print temperature in the Settings menu as you see below. You should contact your reseller, and follow the instructions provided. Temperature changes: If the temperature is changing the extrusion can sometimes become inconsistent, or even stop completely. If this happens, try to disentangle the filament. Too low temperature: The head temperature is too low, and should be increased.įilament entangled: The filament can sometimes get entangled, and the printer cannot extrude the filament. The layers will be separated or split resulting in a print that will be weak or break. In REALvision Online you can enable the support with one click if the print needs it. To enable you to print a bridge, you will need to enable support, so the supporting structures can hold the middle of the bridge while printing. In this example, the middle of the bridge is the 10th layer, and because there are no layers below it, it will be printed into thin air. Imagine that you are printing a classic medieval bridge, then your printer will start with the four pillars, and end at the middle of the bridge. Here is a deeper explanation: Your 3D printer prints one layer on top of another layer, starting from the bottom layer. These structures are thin strings of filament that your printer places to ensure that all your models’ layers are held at the right place doing the printing. What is support? Support is short for “support structures”. Lack of support: If no support is included in the slicing then overhangs might not be printed as they are supposed to. The surfaces are messy on the areas overhanging the plate or have printing errors or rough patches.
