Topic: Overnight print mess

Long story short, i set a print up last night on my solidoodle press, abs plastic.  i seemed to get good adhesion on the first layer and then some....but i woke up to a jumbled mess.  the screenshot of the item that i was printing shows that it had some supports modeled underneath of it, so i didnt think that i needed to manually add more...perhaps that will be my issue all along.  hopefully someone can lead me in the right direction so i can set this thing up to attempt to print again this evening.

Re: Overnight print mess

the bottom of the print seemed to adhere well to the table.  but upon further looking at the mess it made the corners are peeled up, could the print possibly have lost adhesion to the bed surface and then all hell broke loose?  the other issue with that is it looks like it printer other sections of the part in that jumbled mess, they just didnt print...on top of one another. 

i have an email into simplify 3d to see their opinion on that matter, im using their software to run my press

Re: Overnight print mess

If the first layers come loose (perhaps because they curl up and then get hit by the print head), then the rest of the part winds up printing into space, which leaves the curly plastic strings everywhere.

I have a theory that printers know if they are being watched, and if you leave them to print by themselves, that's when they deliberately break the part loose from the print bed :-).

Re: Overnight print mess

Ive had it happen and its either print pops off bed and shit hits fan, or onenlayer doesnt adhere or vibration throws it off and each proceeding layer turns to shit and your left w a mess as seen
