hey guys,
i seem to be having an issue with my retraction, its not retracting! lol
i noticed it today as infil seems to be getting a bit thin when the machine moves across the bed to say… put the outline of a second hole,
so i watched the filament going in, and it would appear that the feed is stopping but not retracting,
does anyone have some in-depth optimal settings for repetier/curaengine for this?
currently set at
150mm/s speed
4mm retract
0.1mm min travel
0.02mm min ext
cheers
luke
The settings seem OK.
Check if the pulley didn’t come loose on the extruder motor shaft.
just checked not the case with loose stuff,
the motor is not retracting at all, its gotta be somewhere in the software or cure its not right, the enable retraction is ticked, still doesn’t work
scrap that, neither extruder are working at all!
i am done with this machine,
so… VELLEMAN!!! do me a favour, come and collect this POS and contact ESR in regards to a refund, i am NOT chasing after tickets again! and waiting 3 weeks for you to fill me with some bull**** excuse,
Just wondering
Can you unload the filament?
i could 2 days ago, now it won’t do anything
both extruders are dead, however x/y/z axis are working,
I’ve been travelling a 2 hour commute to work all this week so had plenty of time to think about it, and I’ve come the the conclusion that i won’t attempt to find a solution, since purchasing it it has been a constant case of finding fixes,
ill be returning the printer to the supplier in hope for a refund of some sort.
on a lighter note its gone wrong THAT much i learned how to fix a hell of a lot of issues so good knowledge for next machine.
