Hi there,
I’m wondering if I could get some advice on why my prints are always failing at 0.2mm layer height
Attached is a pic, the first layers are perfect but as it gets to layer 3-4 I the print does not stick to the previous layers!
Printing at 0.1mm is absolutely perfect, first layer is perfect etc (in my opinion)
Just wanted to have the option for a 0.2mm height so the prints don’t take as long.
Printer is Kingroon KP3S Pro V2 with Klipper Slicer is OrcaSlicer
I can share configs from either if needed, or more close up pics.
Cheers
Is your filament dry? Less than 40% humidity? This happened to me with humid filament
Ah really! It could be possible it’s too moist - It’s been out a month or so. I’ll have to invest in a filament dryer. Appreciate the reply
No need to get a purpose built dryer actually. Your heated bed will actually do exactly what you need. Flip a plastic container upside down over the bed with your filament underneath, set the bed to ~50-60C for PLA, and let it go for a couple hours.
Great idea thanks! 😀
Would bumping up your printing temp do anything?
It’s already running 225 for PLA since it’s a hardened steel nozzle, but I tried it on 230 with the same result
