Bambu Lab X1 Series Troubleshooting
1

Hello Bambu Comunity,

i have the problem that my PLA are not stick on my texture plate. I print with the original Bambu PLA. I have cleaned my plate fresh. I havent changed any options in the slicer. It worked well all the time but now i have some problems. Above all i have the problem for smal peaces.

Can someone help me maybe if i have to change any options in the slicer?

Thanks

Small parts are a problem, even on the gold PEI plate. Worked great for a while then started having issues with small parts. I print some large parts without issue but I also have to print smaller parts for my assemblies. I use a light coating of Suave Essentials Max Hold Hairspray (8) and I can print a dozen or more times before I have any issues. Then I just clean the sheet and start again. Hope this helps.

Please just wash it…don’t use any additives or glues just wash it. Keep your hands off it, oils transfer

do you use the spray on your texture plate?

i have washed the plate and dont touched it because as you allready said because of the oil issues. Its all about the smal parts where i have the problems.

But allready thanks for the help!

@Knilz Yes - sometimes. The parts that I print that give me issues are only about 4 mm wide and 12 mm long. If I want to print a full plate of them I do use hair spray (very light) about once every 12 or so times I print. Works great.

How small are the parts?

You know your printer better than anyone, so I am just giving some ideas about possible causes:

  • Sometimes, especially in the textured plate, I have a similar issue. In my case, it’s solved by proper cleaning; it often requires double passage. For me, it is clear, as I notice a great first layer that afterwards doesn’t stick over the printing process.
  • Also, look at filament dryness; usually, issues of work in the past and now are failing are filament-related.
  • If you are using your calibration settings, note that I and others noticed changes with the printer’s latest firmware. In that case, you need to recalibrate again.
