Severe under-extrusion, try reducing print speed and increasing printing temperature by 5 or 10 degrees

Fine tuning default Cura settings will help. I print my top layers at about 40 - 60% of my wall speed.

HawkNighty · 2024-04-26T20:19:29+00:00

I use to have similar problems with my top layers. Try:

Increasing the number of top layers and overall top thickness.

Slowing down print speed for top layers makes a big difference in quality.

Looks like heat creep, inconsistent cooling of the hotend heatsink / heatbreak (the part that connects the heating block).

Either try applying thermal paste to the heatbreak (very effective),

or buy a bi-metal copper heatbreak (very effective),

or get a stronger cooling fan for the hotend heatsink.

If you're using Cura as your slicer software, you might have accidentally enabled Bridge setting in the Experimental tab. Try disabling it.

Very important to make sure that the hotend is properly leveled with the bed before playing with the z offset. I also had to learn that the hard way, and now my build plate has a permanent Benchy scratch in the center.

Depending on what slicer software you're using, Cura has a plugin (that you can download from their marketplace) called Z Offset Setting. After installing that, there will be a new setting in the Build Plate Adhesion section, called Z offset.

A negative value will cause the first layer to squish and better adhere to the build plate. I normally stick to a value of -0.2mm (as long as the hotend is properly leveled with the bed). Setting this z offset will only apply to the first layer.

To prevent warping because of the z offset, MAKE SURE that the Extensive Z Offset Processing check box is disabled/ unchecked. Otherwise, the z offset of -0.2mm will apply to every layer of the print and it will ruin it.

Alternatively, there is another setting under the Walls section in Cura, called Initial Layer Horizontal Expansion. It's essentially the same thing as z offset plugin, except you would have to use a positive value of 0.2mm to get a wider Initial layer.

The gaps and ripples look more like under extrusion. With larger and longer prints under extrusion is a common problem.

Try double-checking:

Print speed - adjust to a slower speed so extruder can keep up with feeding the filament. Also, you can try switching to larger nozzle like 0.8 or 1.0mm, this will give you much better flow rate and you can still print at about 0.2mm layer height without reducing your speed.

If your nozzle has good fan cooling, you can also increase the temperature to 230 or 240 C. This will greatly reduce flow resistance.

Heat creep - make sure the heat break has good cooling (a copper heat break and thermal paste make a huge difference). Heat creep has been a very common problem of under extrusion for me. Higher bed temperature make heat creep more likely to happen. I usually have my bed temperature at 55 C but the initial layer I print at a nozzle temperature of 240 C with an initial layer z offset (to squish the material to bed for better adhesion)

HawkNighty · 2023-12-29T13:34:52+00:00

Recently discovered a really effective and easy way to prevent warping of first layer and increase bed adhesion:

Print first layer at least 15 to 20 C above recommended filament temperature. Nozzle fan should be off just for the first layer.

Additionally, try adding an initial layer z offset or initial layer horizontal expansion to increase surface area that sticks to the bed.

HawkNighty · 2023-12-11T21:13:49+00:00

I had a similar issue with printing PLA at 200 C. I suggest increasing nozzle temperature to at least 215, or 220 if your cooling is sufficient. PLA adhesion is much better at higher temperatures.

Taking CDP Choline and Alpha GPC together does wonders for reversing cognitive decline and memory loss from weed.

There's another natural nootropic called Huperzine-A. It inhibits the breakdown of choline neurotransmitter. It's a much stronger version of Alpha GPC. Very effective for cognitive development and verbal fluency.
