having random under extrude after retract ?
having trouble dialing in retract settings ?
blobs and uneven extrude levels ?
SEE HERE FOR THE REASON; AND THE FIX.
Added Sidewinder to the title, this hotend and heartbreak is exactly the same on Genius and Sidewinder. 47.5mm total length PTFE needed.
ALSO : retract 1.5mm max, prefered is less, i use 1mm, 70mm/sec retract speed,
adjust retract as low as you start to see stringing, and then solve the stringing with WIPE and combing, (move within printed material)
dont use z hop, it only give you uncureable stringing.

didn't end up using your tutorial but it was helpful to see it taken apart and the heat gun idea helped. I'm only using PLA so a hair dryer was enough. Thanks man 👌

Today i diasembled my extruder because the extruder motor couldn`t push the filament it anymore so I thought the theeth which grab the filament, were gone bad. But today i wanted to install the new parts, i saw that my hotend was blocked up because my PTEF tube were melted. And there was a gap between the nossle and and zhe hose where the PTEF tube sits. You helped me alot with your vid. Kow i have to order a capricorn tube.

you are welcome , a trick : ask in the local facebook groups, people tend to keep old pieces of PTFE tube, when it gets too short when performing service on bowden type 3D printers, you know people cut the bed end off, and installing it again, after 2-3 times, it is too short, and they need a new one.

Latest update : I have done this a few times, and came up with 47.5mm total ptfe length needed.

My 2020 V4 SWX1 came with an extra tube...it measured 45.8mm and fit perfectly. Just replaced it.

@leeo.alexander2324 3 жыл бұрын

I have an SWX1, purchased in 2019. It printed great right out of the box. Any jam that occurred when I first got it was fixed in less than a day or so. Recently I had an extruder error which was caused by the heater cartridge. I replaced that along with two cables and two boards that became questionable after inspection. From that I started experiencing the same type of jam you show in this video. I have tried, with limited success, to fix this jam. I get to work for awhile and the it comes back. What is strange is that I am getting a near perfect 1st layer, but when the part fan kicks on the 2nd layer does not go down properly. The extruder will partially extrude and then at some point stop all together. At the end of the throat, just before entering the nozzle the PTFE swells up and I get a 3 to 4mm section that is larger than the rest of the PFTE. I have only seen the spinning top section once when tearing the hotend down to unjam it. This has been going on for about two months now. I have gotten the printer to print almost a whole roll of filament once, and right at the end of the roll it started up again. I am still idle at this time, trying to figure out what else to do that I have not done to correct this issue. I just ordered a couple of parts for the extruder, the front plate and the slide in throat. I am not sure if this will help to cure this problem, but at least it is something I can try. I have even taken a relooked at my slicer (S3D) and a couple of other ones. The same results regardless of the slicer I am using. I will go back and reassess my problem using your suggestions on my X1.

Did you ever get this fixed? I am having the same problem. I can go through about half a roll, but then it starts under extruding

@leeo.alexander2324 3 жыл бұрын

I got it to work for a while. At this time I have changed out to a new reel of filament and the temperature has been changed for it. I am working on getting it dialed back in. Life is happening and its taking me some time to work it out. In most cases it will be the feedrate and hotend temp that is going to cause, in my opinion, the biggest issues. Fix those items and you should be okay.

Hi, can I ask you how you removed that piece of iron on which the hotend screws? My belief is stuck, should it be removed while hot? Thank you.

@TeardownOZ2CPU 7 ай бұрын

see this video, the first 2 sek, show the two holes into the set screws, loosen them, and it can go out, if stuck you should heat up, stuck can mean plastic in parts where it should not be.

I am having a similar problem, i have tried cutting a new PTFE a few times. The last time i took it apart the clog was under a half milimeter. But i am thinking this is down to me not being able to cut the PTFE straight enough. A sidenote: How hot is the heatsink with the fan suppossed to get? Mine seems to be about handwarm, at most?

@TeardownOZ2CPU 3 жыл бұрын

you can find cutting tools at thingiverse, it is VERY important to cut it straight, the idea is not to leak material,

@@TeardownOZ2CPU I just had a conversation with the shop i buy filament from (3deksperten.dk), and he advised me to use the heatbreak as a template. Just take the heatbreak of, slide the PTFE through and cut along the top of the heatbreak. Also the PTFE i used was some cheap generic stuff from amazon. I just ordered som capricorn to see if that will make a difference

How did you get the assembly out of the Sidewinder? I have a V4 which has gotten a loading problem, where it will pull filament in, but then stop loading unless I manage to push it through, I’ve checked the drive gear and arm, they seem fine, so my next thing to check is the PtFE tube, but I cannot get it out to the way you had it at the start of the video.

@TeardownOZ2CPU 3 жыл бұрын

pull the whole extruder assembly apart, and you get the soft plastic part out the extruder, that hold the ptfe, if you got stock filament in there, with a bend milled down top, you can not pull out the ptfe.

@jendantes 3 жыл бұрын

Thomas Scherrer I guess I’m missing something here. How do you get that assembly out of its mount on the plate inside the Sidewinder? That’s the part I can’t get. It won’t pull out at all.

@Marcmenardtechno 3 жыл бұрын

I'm sure you know this by now but there are two tiny screws that tighten the heatbreak cylinder inside the back plate. You just need to loosen them up with the smallest allen key in the kit that comes with the printer. It's easy to miss, I know I did.
