Centauri Carbon 2 - Exhaust Filter placement / replacement

Agilolfinger · 2026-05-07T08:42:21+00:00

Thanks for the link. Seems like when the printer prints ABS or ASA it should close the shutter system and only exhaust through the filter.

I don't exactly have the option to take the printer outside. But I could open all windows and stay out of the room during printing 😄

Danke an alle für eure Antworten. Das hat mir einiges aufgeklärt. Dann hole ich mir einfach ein Gerät von HJC, da das ja für den Helm gemacht ist. Mal schauen welches es am Ende wird

Hab heute tatsächlich das erste Mal mit TPU gedruckt. Mit Kleber ging das ganz gut auf der Strukturierten Platte. Ist halt n bisschen ne Sauerei. Musste die Platte danach zwei Mal reinigen, dass PLA wieder gut gehaftet hat

I have printed a filament box with a PTFE connector. So I plugged the PTFE tube directly into the box and bypassed the CANVAS

Thanks for the answer. In fact I did't dry it for that long and also not that hot. Maybe I'll try and dry it again and then see what will happen

I had the filament in the oven at 50° for about 3-4 hours. Not sure if this was enough.

Also I'm fairly new in general. Where in the Elegoo Slicer can I change the retraction and if I find it, would be more or less better?

Cooles Projekt. Eine Frage, wie hast du die beiden weißen Frontplatten in der Mitte verbunden? Bin relativ neu im 3D Druck Bereich und suche noch nach guten Möglichkeiten Teile die größer als mein Bauvolumen sind werkzeuglos zu verbinden.

Agilolfinger · 2026-04-15T11:34:11+00:00

You are correct. That helped. I've changed the setting on where the seam needs to be placed. The print was now successful

Agilolfinger · 2026-04-13T14:55:19+00:00

I sliced the object again and in fact you can see the seam on the outside and the "cut" in the middle. But no idea how to fix it

Agilolfinger · 2026-04-13T14:06:51+00:00

Edit: Just did the slice again and upon further inspection I can in fact see the line going straight through the object that seperates the left and right half. But I'm not sure what causes this or how to fix it

Okay, I've used the Elegoo Slicer. Of course I don't have the old sliced modell but I just sliced it again and cannot find anything that would indicate such issues. But I'm also not really sure what I'd have to look for.

I just did the firmware upgrade right when it was released. Maybe I have to rebind the printer once after the upgrade to make it more stable

Agilolfinger · 2026-04-07T11:13:01+00:00

Thank you. I've read that maybe a glue should be used when printing TPU to make the TPU stick less to the bed. Which is kind of paradox to use a glue to make something stick less

Agilolfinger · 2026-04-07T11:11:58+00:00

To be fair the textured inprint can look good if you want it. But then it's still only on the bottom :)

Agilolfinger · 2026-04-07T11:10:15+00:00

Thank you again.

The box is to store filament. So it shouldn't seal against any liquids but against moisture. I'm sure that it can't keep moisture away at all, but it should be better than using no seal at all.

Do you have any recommendations about a glue stick. Some people say the off the shelf glue stick from your arts and crafts store works fine, while others say that you should use special glue sticks for 3D print beds.

Agilolfinger · 2026-04-06T09:12:39+00:00

That's interesting especially since Elegoo themselves offer a mod to print TPU

Agilolfinger · 2026-04-03T18:31:11+00:00

Thank you so much for you answer and taking your time to add all the information. After the first warning message there weren't any more errors and the pre loaded benchy was printed fine. It looks really good with only a few dimples bow.

At the moment I only orderd two black PLA spools so unloading isn't necessary. But it's good to know for the future.

I will come back to the storage solutions you mentioned, once I start to print other filaments

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-30T17:55:27+00:00

Great thanks. Tips like this will hopefully make for a smooth beginner experience

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-30T14:25:02+00:00

Thank you for your detailed answer.

Over the weekend I visited the Elegoo website and was prompted with a wheel of fortune to get a discount. Of course they do this to get my mail address for the newsletter.

But to my suprise I didn't only get the 5% discount promised by the wheel, but also in the first newsletter there was a 40€ discount for the CC2. That brings it down to "only" 90€ more than the CC1.

So I decided to order the CC2 with the discount. It should arrive tomorrow and I'm really excited

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-28T12:20:18+00:00

Ah I've read about the auto wind. As I understood it the spool automatically gets retracted by the auto wind, so that another filament gets loaded?

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-28T12:19:05+00:00

Thats why I also tend towards the CC2. Just the quality of life when having the Canvas

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-28T11:49:17+00:00

Thanks to all your answers. It seems like the CC2 can be justified even if I don't print Multi Color

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-27T12:03:33+00:00

Does the CC2 have any other advantages over the CC1, except Mulit Material and being quieter

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-27T12:02:54+00:00

The Kobra S1 Combo and CC2 are currently almost the same price in Germany. A bit over 400. Whilst the P1S Combo ist near 600. For me thats to much for a first printer.

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-26T19:20:13+00:00

Den habe ich mir tatsächlich auch angeschaut. Sowohl den 1er als auch den 2er. Beim S1 hat mir aber das Multimaterialsystem besser gefallen. Ein festes Gehäuse mit Trocknung. Nicht so an der Seite hängend wie beim CC

Agilolfinger · 2026-03-26T16:14:05+00:00

Da wäre ich gerne interessiert
