19 BAD 3D-print Fails: Timelapse Compilation & Troubleshooting Guide (in description)

Показать описание

Welcome to my compilation of 19 timelapse videos showcasing various 3D print fails on the Anycubic Mega X, Anycubic Kobra or Artillery Sidewinder X2. In this video, you'll witness common printing issues like weak bed adhesion, layer shift, snapped filament, and more. Watching these print fails can help you learn from the mistakes and improve your 3D printing skills.

Don't worry, I've got your back! In this description, I provide detailed explanations of the reasons behind each fail and their corresponding solutions to help you avoid these printing mishaps in the future.

Layer shifting:
-Loose belts:
Solution: Tighten belts on the X and Y-axis, ensuring proper tension.
-Overheating stepper motors:
Solution: Cool stepper motors with passive or active cooling, and check stepper driver current settings.
-Mechanical obstructions:
Solution: Clear any debris or obstructions, ensuring smooth X and Y-axis movements.
-Inadequate print bed adhesion:
Solution: Improve bed adhesion by cleaning the bed, using adhesion promoters, or a heated bed.
-Excessive print speed or acceleration:
Solution: Reduce print speed and acceleration settings in slicing software.
-Software issues:
Solution: Update slicing software, verify correct G-code generation, and check slicing settings.
-Electrical issues or interference:
Solution: Inspect wiring and connections, ensure stable power supply, and avoid electromagnetic interference.
-Worn or damaged components:
Solution: Replace any worn or damaged parts, such as pulleys, bearings, and linear rails.

Blob of Death:
-Incorrect temperature settings: Adjust nozzle and bed temperatures according to filament material. -Inadequate bed adhesion: Ensure proper bed leveling, clean the bed, and use adhesion promoters or a heated bed.
-Insufficient retraction settings: Increase retraction distance and speed in your slicing software. -Filament quality: Use high-quality filament and store it in a dry, cool place.
-Clogged nozzle: Clean the nozzle or replace it if necessary.
-Poorly calibrated extruder: Calibrate extruder steps per millimeter (E-steps) for accurate extrusion.
-Inappropriate print speed: Adjust print speed in slicing software for better control and adhesion.
-Worn or damaged nozzle: Inspect and replace the nozzle if needed.
-Loose or wobbly parts: Tighten and secure your printer's components.

Filament snaps in 3D printing can be caused by brittleness, typically due to moisture absorption or aging, or by excessive tension on the filament during printing. To prevent filament snapping:

-Use high-quality filament from reputable manufacturers to ensure consistent quality and material properties.
-Store filament in a dry, cool environment, preferably with desiccants, to minimize moisture absorption, which can cause brittleness.
-Check and replace spools that have been exposed to humidity or have been stored for extended periods, as they may have become brittle over time.
-Ensure a smooth filament path with minimal friction and avoid excessive tension on the filament during printing by properly aligning the spool holder and the extruder.

Remember, 3D printing can be a trial-and-error process, but understanding the reasons behind these fails can make you a better maker.
