Dear All Bambu Lab Community ,
I just got new P1S combo 3d printer , i had a few prints then i had an issue with flament stuck in extruder and nozzle.
I kindly ask your help and comment about solving this is issue.
i had design by using MakerLab “Make my sign” desing and started to print. it was 2 color design and using ams for it, when it is finished 1st color as a base plate, it need to be changed 2nd color for writing name but while extruder head moving , flament was not running from nozzle as 2nd color.
i stopped printing and checked that the problem,
AMS was stucked because of flament is tensioned in PTFE tube. i tried try to unload flament but unfortuanately it is not removed.
i have searched the problem and saw a method on forum to clean extruder , and start to apply same but in method it is said remove the tube on extruder. but i could not , because flament is tensioned and tube is not removed. i found another title to remove tube, and tried the comments, i have removed tube in method that i pushed flament inside the ams gently and when it is run afew cm, tube is released and and cut flament and removed the tube. Seperated AMS from printer
i applied the steps as it is mentioned on Nozzle/Hotend Unclogging Procedure for X1 | Bambu Lab Wiki .
but there was anohter issue that , it was saying ‘’ After the hotend reaches 220C, push filament in the top of the extruder as shown in the image below, then use the extrude button on the screen to feed it until you see filament being extruded from the tip of the nozzle.‘’. But the problem new flament was not running into when i push new flament and press load flament as said on page. so i decided that to remove hotend. and i saw that flament was stuck inside of it. i tried same method for only hotend. heat up hotend and and push the flament from nozzle to upside with nozzle pin. removed the stucked flament and pushed new flament from top of the hotend and let the clean flament flow from nozzle. Nozzle is cleaned. But now the remaining problem is stucked flament in extruder itseft.
As shown in photo (from bottomto up) there is a red point which is flament. when i pushed new flament from top of the extruder for pushing the broken flamnet to remove it., it is not running into extruder. i dont know the reason and i dont know the solution how to clean up the line for working fine.
If you’ve cleaned out the hotend of filament and it’s still not going through the extruder, then there will likely be filament stuck in the gears. You’ll have to remove the extruder and pull it apart to clear it out.
You can find the procedure on the wiki also.
After continue of searching i have find solution.
Actually i was scared to remove the things so i couldnt touch, then i have watched 2 videos of Bambu Lab :
Good to hear you sorted it out. You’ll get good at it if you change filament types a lot, as nozzle clogs and pieces getting stuck in the extruder are pretty common. I suggest running a length of cleaning filament through it every now and then and to make things easier next time, print a holder for the toolhead to hang over the gantry rails.
I’m having the same issue after a clog, which “seems” to be a piece of unmelted filament sitting in the extruder. After losing a screw into the back of the printer and having to take that off to find it, now I get the same error. I’ve unplugged and replugged everything in. I’ve only made a few test prints with this printer and honestly it is way more problematic than my 2018 Qidi X-pro after 1 week. On top of that, how does the filament selection with the AMS work? It randomly selects an AMS slot when you print, Bambu Studio doesn’t care what AMS slot to use to print something, it will randomly pick whatever it feels like (I noticed when an initial print came out with the wrong colors)… I would say that maybe I just somehow don’t know what I’m doing, but then I go to the Bambu Labs shop and look at the glow in the dark filament. Can you tell me that the anything other than the blue actually looks like the actual color in the shots they show (other than blue which looks like blue)? The more and more I look, I should have just not bothered with the promise of multi-color… speaking of, the second AMS I had bought literally just arrived and I can’t use it because I’ve got sensor errors after fixing a clog. What a joke.
How convenient I can’t post a link… go take a look at the glow in the dark filament which glows a different color than what it is supposed to be… don’t think that’s my main gripe, it’s the fact that the software is horribly inconsistent , then I have to clear a clog which breaks the printer, the thing that confirms the insanity of it is that the glow in the dark filament colors don’t even match what they are selling… yes, I’ll contact them and hopefully they’ll replace whatever is wrong, otherwise this was just a failed investment for my daughter. Whatever.
Sorry, and green looks like green on the website, but the rest show when they glow that they aren’t the same color, which goes back to same insanity the software is. Anyhow, I’m done now and I guess I’ll spend weeks getting stuff replaced and hoping it somehow works?
is there no possibility to avoid it? I have the printer for 6 month now, and it never occured before. Now I print to pieces and it gets stuck.
I checked the extruder while I was taking it apart, it is clean. But maybe the hotend is not…
