Printing with 0.8 nozzles
Posted: January 4th, 2023, 9:12 am
Well this one has me a bit stumped.
I know with larger nozzles, you need capable heaters and an increase in temp
I have two machines that print marvelously with 0.4 nozzles. E3D Hemera on one machine , Slice on the other.
When I installed the 0.8 nozzle on each, I made nominal changes to the slicer settings, first layer 220C and 215 for the rest.
I am suspicious of my material, so that's in the dryer now.
But what is happening is that the first layer doesn't stick or curls up. I know my bed surface is good, as is my z offset. Layer height is 0.2
