Re: Hotend Temp off by several degrees

I replaced the hotend with the E3D hotend, and it is now capable of maintaining the set temperature. This is no doubt due to the 40W heating element. I can see in Repetier-host that the average on time dropped from around 85-95% to ~40%.

Re: Hotend Temp off by several degrees

A new power supply did not solve the problem, but it did stop the lights from flickering. Really kind of clueless as to why it cant stay at the set temperature. If you turn the bed off, it jumps up to the right temp, but at the same time, its perfectly capable of reaching the set temperature while ...

Re: Hotend Temp off by several degrees

Yes my first layer temp matches my following layers. (Had a Replicator 1, used Slic3r for that too) Yes the leads are screwed into the connector tightly, I just assembled it not a week ago and I double checked now. Also the LEDs were attached directly to the 12V in from the power supply, so it ...

Re: Hotend Temp off by several degrees

Only printing at about 40mm/s. Considering the last print I had could print at 100mm/s with only 1C variance (According to the thermistor of course), I would really hope that 40mm/s isn't pull that much heat. (I did order an extra hotend and 12V 40W heaters,5mm O.D., mostly cause I want to see how ...

Hotend Temp off by several degrees

Quick question. (Rostock MAX V2) I noticed that my hotend only gets to the set temperature for the very first part of a print (~1-3min), then is steadily several degrees below the set temperature for the rest of the print. Currently to get it to 215, have to set temperature to 220. If I set it to ...
