IDear Community,I am facing an issue with my printer P1S. Currently, I am experiencing difficulties with the adhesion of the printing material. I can only achieve adequate adhesion in the center of the print bed. Parts placed at the edges tend to detach during printing, resulting in effectively utilizing only 25% of the total print bed area. Despite the printer being relatively new – it was purchased a month ago – this problem persists. It is irrespective of the material used, although I typically use PLA+. Additionally, I have applied a layer of adhesive to the print bed to enhance adhesion. Too i use speed of 35mm for initsl layers.
May we assume that you had bed leveleling checked before the print?
May we also assume that you did a first layer test? A first layer test will reveal a lot about the flow and contact of your filament and bed. If there are any contaminants or “dead space” where the heat flow is interrupted a continuous 1st layer test will show those up almost like a map of the problem areas.
I generally prefer the test that uses the entire plate but you can create your own first layer test easily by creating a 220x200x0.1 cube primitive and then centering it. Try the test at both 0.08 and 0.28 layer heights.
It’s hard to diagnose without an image of what the sliced model(s) looked like that are giving you trouble. If you could provide a screengrab of the sliced model right before print, that would help us make a diagnosis.
Also, what is the bed temp that you’re printing at, did you try increasing the temp?
You said you’ve used different filaments but you did not specify what technology. I can therefore assume you meant different brands of PLA. Did you try something other than PLA such as PETG or PC?
I will test the test prints, it in the next 2 days. Regarding the material, I mentioned PLA plus, but not the brands. I have used Eelego and a new roll of Creality. Additionally, I have used many different models, mostly parts from Multiboard.io.Ah, and I typically use a brim of 2-5 mm on the outer line setting.
