Topic: problems with large print
Hello Soildforum
I am running into some problems printing the part pictured below. This is about a 62 hour print. I have had my Solidoodle 3 for about a year now and am still tuning the printer. I normally print part in the 20 to 30 hour range with descent results. I would just like to ask Solidoodle user if I am asking too much of this printer and if not some options to try to improve my print quality. I am attaching two picture below of the part when it when south about 10 hour into the print. I have my bed level, extruder calibrated and setting that have worked for me in the past. I am using Simplify 3D to slice and export my Gcode file. I have not used slicer3 for slice and exporting Gcode as it normally would not slice 90% of my model. I am printing the model with the extruder tempter set at 213 and the bed set to 105. I was also using 8mm brim around the part. As you can see in the print it is getting a lot of excess plastic oozing on the ID of the part. As you can see the OD looks descent with a small amount of banding. I hope I have given you enough information to help me with this problem. Please let me know if you need more information. Thanks
