Re: Extruder drive stalls after retraction

Hi there, I have exactly the same problem, but it's stalling at 30mm/s. I changed the bearings cause one of them was not good looking. I tried to adjust the current setting (on a RAMBO 1.1b) to 220. It's a little better but still stalling at very slow speeds. I'll try to change the acceleration ...

Rapid tube fit broken

Hi, I think too much pressure broke my rapid link for the bowden tube (push to connect). I'm trying to find some on Amazon, but I'm not sure which one to buy.. Here is the huge list I found: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_hi_6?rh=n%3A16310091%2Cn%3A%2116310161%2Cn%3A3021479011%2Cn%3A3021480011%2Cn ...

Re: Lost in extruder calibration

The output of the extruded plastic in the air is between 0.4 and 0.5 mm.. You think it can be 0.3?

Re: Lost in extruder calibration

Yes you are right, my value is too low.
But about the nozzle diameter, because I don't get a part list, I'm not sure it's a 0.5 or a 0.4. Which one comes with the rostock max now?

Lost in extruder calibration

Hi dears, I'm a little lost in my Rostock MAX extruder settings. First thing, I hav made a firmware calibration by mesuring the length of the extruded filament. The initial value was too high because for 30 mm extrution I got 45mm. So I reduced the number of steps to: #define DEFAULT_AXIS_STEPS_PER ...

It's strange, because when I clean everything, I can feed the hotend by hand, and the extruder mechanism is not too loose, I can't stop the filament with the fingers. But when I start printing, the feeding s ...
