<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — temperature]]> 2015-02-21T10:14:14Z PunBB https://www.soliforum.com/topic/9993/temperature/ <![CDATA[Re: temperature]]> I also succeeded long (>30min) print only when lid is open. I'm using original ABS, 215C extruder, and 110C bed. Kapton tape on bed, buffed with sanding paper. I need to do more testing with bed temperature, unbuffed Kapton etc., but for now it works.

I tried printing at the lower temps with the lid closed, and it still jammed for me, but I waven't had any problems with the lid open.

In the filament section of the forum someone is documenting all the filaments that he uses on the press.

I think it would be useful if people would document where they got their filament when reporting temperatures and recipes.  Here's the two I referred to:

205C/100C (extruder/bed) : eshop2018 (ebay)
230C/110C : I can't say for sure - I bought it on eBay and it has a larger spool but has long since rolled off my history

Current process: Turn everything on. Start heating bed from setting screen.
At bed temp 80(reported) I apply purple glue stick to print area.
Uncheck bed heat, and set hotend to 230 and click the heat printer button on main screen.
Verify that both are heating. (So times you have to click it again to get them both to come back on.)
When both hit operating temp(230 hotend, 90 bed) I extrude 5-10mm of filament, remove it from hotend.
Then click print.

I have only been doing this for a week and I am still refining the process. But this has worked so far. The one time it failed to stick to the glass was when I did not extrude a little filament before printing. The only thing that did not stick was the rim (maybe its called a brim, the first thing that prints), I plucked it off before it got in the way and the rest of the print was fine.

All my prints have required the scraper and a lot of force to remove, even when glass has cooled.

Edit:
The above is with the 1lb starter filament that comes with press.

when you say your bed is at 90 is that as reported in soliprint or the actual glass temp as I find there is a large discrepancy. I set my bed temp to 120 and then measure the glass temp and its about 85C

Thanks
