Yo mate,
Having layershift trouble in the latest firmware/BS software,
now the latest m i g h t have fixed this issue,
however now this is happening instead?!?
The closest/lower is printed without support but it’s just strains of filament not bound together?!?
The top/back is printed WITH manually added supports, STILL not bound together…!?!
What is this?
What is this phenomena even called?
How do I fix this so it prints like it should?
Yes I have dried the filament, it is the same brand same color filament (Hatchbox Sky) I printed a stack of these until now, when they dont wish to print from the same .stl anymore…
I am using Bambu ASA and getting similar stranding on curves but not anything like as bad on the straight runs - I’ve been using the ‘classic’ wall generator. I only seem to get the problem with a new spool of black Bambu ASA - I printed loads in white Bambu ASA without problems. I was getting warping problems but redesigning the part and putting big pads at the ends to be cut off fixed it - but the stranding is bad. Engineering plate and 3DLAY. I’m doing a flow cal each run and a bed levelling but there is virtually no bonding - I’m using the Bambu defaults, .4 nozzle, .16 layer height. Any suggestions?
OK, solved it - I had cranked up the precision in the OPTIONS menu when creating the SLT file in SOLIDWORKS and created more triangles than the Bambu could cope with - I think it just created too many G Code ops and so the printer just couldn’t cope. It really ought to spot that rather than try to print too dense a G Code! THe code only got too dense on the curves, hence the problem there, and why I was able to spot it.
Don’t use STL when exporting, use .step. .step has 100% precision since it doesn’t slice the part into triangles, it rather exports all the geometry. You will have much better printing results, especially on round features!
