Heating up problems while loading

Hi guys,

I managed to get the rods parallel and the printer now moves smoothly while moving the axis.
But i got into the next problem.

When i started to load the filament and the printhead started to head, the temp stucks at 170 degrees. I doesnt go further.
Unfortunately i assembled the heatblock the false way. It sticks out on the left instead of the right side.
I think the heatblock cant get more heat because the fan is cooling to much. When the heatblock is sticking out to the right, i think then the airstream from the fan isnt affecting that much as it now.

Somebody thin the same way?
How can i remove the nozzle from the heatblock, its very straight and i think it needs a bit of violence to get it out of the block? Tips?

block and nozzle fit together quite nicely :slight_smile:

on mine i could twist it around clockwize, if you cant do that you have to take the isolator assebly off, unscrew the nozzle and use force basicly (dont damage it).

just dismount the wire (remember where they go (mine are marked with 1 or 2 tiny rings of heat shrink), then unscrew the 2 bolts holding the isolater assembly, and it should come off

Thanks for the fast tips.

Do you think it dont head up to 210 degree because of the false mounting?
Whats your opinion about this?

Just to be sure, have you checked so that the nozzle max temp is right @ 270c and not 170?
I dont know but it feels like the heatrod should be able to handle the little airflow.

I also have this thoughts. Its a f**** heatblock and this little fan schouldnt be that strong too cool that much.
Where do i have to check this? In the repetier host? On the LCD there is wrote that he have to heat to 210 degrees.
I will reupload the firmware, reset the EEPROM and check the configs in the repetier host.
Once i covered the fan whit a paper to distract the airflow and the temp started to go over 180 degree. But i think the sensor gave false information, due its a spook of the temp sensor.

when you heat up look at the display on the printer if it says 170/170 then the setting is wrong, if is says 170/210 then there is something else wrong.

i had problems with holding the temp at 245 when i first time used ABS, but that was because there was some left over PLA inthere, and for some reason the nozzle couldnt keep the temperature at more then 205 while printing, once the nozzle was clean there wasnt any problems anymore (now i have learnt that temp was to high thou)

display says 170/210.
it also goes over 170 sometime but than go back to around 170…

may its really because of the false mounted headblock…

You should build it according to the instructions.

Ouuu thanks! -_-
Do you think it was my intention?
I everytime worked in my best deem? But mistakes happen. Its a part of the human beeing

For the rest, thanks for the tips.
