Nice! Mind sharing the .stl file, I’d like to try to screw… seems quiet interesting!

carefully build the Y/X Plattform > double check for smooth travel!

3 point bed

better Bed Leveling

Z-Level micrometre

Y Cable Chain!

Hi,

Can you say bed temperature, extruder temperature and your layer height ?

Because I tried to print the long screw but after 2cm, the screw stick the extruder.
My config is :
bed temperature 55 °C with Mirror
extruder temperature 205 °C
first layer height : 0.30mm
other layer height : 0.15mm

thanks in advance

bed temperature: 55 °C with mirror
extruder temperature: 190 °C (Printspeed 50%)
first layer height : 0.30mm
other layer height : 0.25mm

if your extruder hits the screw your table is not flat.
i leveled the table with a dial gauge like this to 1/100mm

the mirror is just taped to the underground, with 4 screws i was not able to get a level surface.

9

with this configuration is working fine
first layer height : 0.30mm
other layer height : 0.25mm

But I want to understand why is not possible with a layer height to 0.15mm

10

check with a dial gauge if the z-axis moves correctly, e.g. 0.15mm / 24 Steps. if the nozzle hit something then its too low.

Hi Thev

Realy good indeed. I was wondering what filament you where using. If I see your picture there semms to be absolutly no fine extruded pieces between the mulitple parts. How come? If I print I allways get those when the extruder changes to the next piece.
Or did you modify the slicer settings somehow?

best regards,
Christian

there are fine strings from travel between the pieces. you can see them in the long screw in the lower part.

13

Hi

I see, but still you get much less then I do.

Best regards,
Christian

My retract Settings:

lenght: 3mm
Speed: 65mm/s
Extra Lenght on Restart: 0.1mm
Retract on Layer change: yes

be sure to check the gear distance. i have almost no clearance.

15

Thanks for the hint I will try it.

But first I need fix my printerconnection.

Wow, this it he print quality I want to achieve. I’ll try out your suggestions.
