4. Bảo trì
4.1 Vệ sinh giường in
Regularly clean the dual-sided flexible plate with isopropyl alcohol to ensure optimal adhesion and prevent residue buildup. Allow the plate to cool before cleaning.
4.2 Bảo trì vòi phun
Periodically inspect the brass-hardened steel nozzle for wear or clogs. If necessary, perform a cold pull or use a nozzle cleaning needle to clear any obstructions. Refer to advanced guides for detailed nozzle replacement procedures if required.
4.3 Tổng vệ sinh
Keep the printer's interior and exterior free from dust and filament debris. Use a soft, dry cloth for external surfaces. For internal components, use compressed air or a soft brush, ensuring the printer is powered off and unplugged.
KHAI THÁC. Xử lý sự cố
5.1 Các vấn đề in ấn thường gặp
- Độ bám dính của lớp đầu tiên kém: Ensure the print bed is clean and properly calibrated. Adjust Z-offset if necessary. Verify heatbed temperature settings for your specific filament.
- Sợi không đùn: Check for tangled filament on the spool. Verify the filament is correctly loaded and the hotend is at the correct temperature. Inspect the nozzle for clogs.
- Chuyển lớp: Ensure the printer is on a stable surface. Check belt tension and ensure all moving parts are free from obstruction.
- Poor Print Quality (Stringing, Blobs): Điều chỉnh cài đặt độ co rút trong phần mềm cắt. Đảm bảo sợi nhựa khô và được bảo quản đúng cách.
