I’ve a strange problem with my P1S, and can’t find how to solve.
Material is eSUN PLA+ with eSUN profile.
I’m printing a sphere, and the “under” part is like melted. Difficult to explain.
The angle is not too high (30°) and i made an overhang test, the printer is doing fine with much more.
Looks like the filament is shiny on the bottom, just where the problem starts. Layers seems not straight. I was thinking of a temperature problem, or too fast layers, but realy not sure and don’t know how to solve that !
PLA is not ideal for use in a car, it will deform in the heat. PLA generally needs plenty of cooling, P1s often need to print with door open for pla. I would suggest you callibrate the filament for your printer. Orca slicer has some useful test prints for setting temperature, overhangs, etc.
Too much overhang on the layers. I had a similar issue with a few Lithophane globes, had to change my layer height to .12 so it wasnt hanging off too far.
@debonr i now PLA isn’t great in a car, but i often print my prototypes on PLA before going to ABS. I’m not very good with Fusion 360 and sometimes my pieces don’t fit on first try !
@Frank_Stanton i’ll try with smaller layers, but i’m surprised the angle isn’t so high. Anywayn, it’ll help with acetone smoothing on the final piece !
