Get Rid Of That Stringing In Creality Print
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- Tied up in knots with stringy 3D prints? We can solve that! In this video I'll use Creality Print to reduce stringing on an Ender 3 V3 SE as I continue to build a new material profile. You'll want to make sure your temperature and flow rate have already been determined. Both go along way to help eliminate stringing as well. Links for those videos are below. @Creality3D @OFFICIALCREALITY3D

👍 you forgot to show the result of the last print😅.
A closeup? I guess I should've shown a closeup of it. In hindsight it may have been a good idea to do that. It had no stringing or defects. If it did, I would've gone up to 0.7mm and so on until it had no stringing or defects.
Man, I'm learning so much with your videos, like, you have no idea! I also have an ENcer 3 v3 SE and at new at this, and I´m feeling like a pro, just by following your videos/test/tips. Thank you so much!!! Big hug from Colombia
Thanks for those kind words!! The Ender 3 V3 Se is a great printer. I have one and it hasn't let me down yet!!! Thanks for watching, it's very much appreciated!
@@pushingplastic7445wxwc the same for me thank you so much and sub well earned.
@@Simlife101 Thank you!!!!!
How do you adjust retraction distance on creality 5.1? The retraction distance is split up into start, end, and split.
Thanks a lot for all your videos. I had great prints previously, I have a K1 max, with one brand of filament, and when I switched to a new brand I ran into so many problems. Watching your videos really helped me to understand my printer better and getting it optimized for my new brand of filament. Keep it up! Will you be making a video on cooling settings?
Yes I will! Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching, it's very much appreciated!
Just what I was looking for thank you so much ❤
Thank you & thanks for watching!
A link to the stringing test STL would have been nice too. 😉
Oh wow! I can't believe I missed that! I just updated the video description to include a link to the retraction test piece. I'm truly sorry about that! Thanks for pointing it out and thanks for watching!
The UI is so different in the newest release I can't even follow these videos 😢
They were made for the current version at the time.
I have tried everything and said in this video. Could there be a problem with my 3d printer
Thanks for all the great info, Bill!
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!
So I started at 0.0 and then went to .5 .6 .7 .8 even 1.0 1.2 1.5 no matter what I did it kept stringing. What am I doing wrong and what else can I do?
I would check my temperature and flow rates. Then I would retry the reaction tests. Another thing to keep in mind is that damp filament will also result in stringy prints. It doesn't have to feel wet to be wet! A good test for damp PLA is to try to break a piece off of the spool. If it snaps right off, you have damp filament. If it bends a lot, then your filament is fine. Good luck and let me know if this help!!!! Thanks for watching!
@pushingplastic7445 so you think I should do the temp and flow test again and dial those in one more time and then try the string test again? If my filament is damp, how do I fix that problem?
@@michaelshanley3939 I would check the filament for dampness first. For my filament, I use an old food dehydrator to dry it. Very cheap, like $35 new on Amazon and a lot of time found at a goodwill or thrift store for about $5. A lot of people have them laying around their house and forgot they even had it! I use the round one and cut the center out of the trays with the snips that come with a printer. I'll put about 3 spools of filament in there for 4-6 hours at 45C and it's good to go. You don't have to buy one of those dry boxes that a lot of 3d Printer companies are selling. There are a lot of videos on UA-cam for drying filament that might give you other options. But checking the filament for dampness would be my starting point. Good luck!
@pushingplastic7445 thanks so much for the info. I just checked my filament and it's bending very nicely. Looks like I'm gonna do the temp tests and flow tests again and hope to dial it in a little more. Thanks
@@michaelshanley3939 You got this!!!
short and sweet
Thank you so much 👌👌
Thank you!!!!
Do you have a retraction video for Creality print 5.0?
Coming soon!
@@pushingplastic7445 I've notice that retraction distance doesn't seem to be reflected in the gcode after you update its value in Creality Print 5.x. I get the same stringing issues no matter what value I set for retraction distance.
@@Expt626 There's more to stringing than retraction alone can fix. Sometimes it's damp filament, sometimes too high of a printing temperature, sometimes it's a matter of printing to fast.
On point! Great info
Thanks! And thanks for watching!
I keep having heat creep with my K1. Its new, ive only had it about 3 weeks. When i try to print anything larger or takes longer than am hour, the filament swells and causes a clog and I have to take it all apart to get the filament out. Its really a pain to take the hotend apart. Is this the nest way to prevent the heat creep?
I haven't experience that. What filament brand & type are you printing with and what temperature are printing at? I'm very curious.
thank you so much
No problem! I hope it helped. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for watching!
so I've dialed in the temp pretty well at 210C and followed the flow rate video to get a flow rate of 87% which does seem a bit low but based on the process that is what I got. Now I am just struggling to see any improvement in stringing as I slowly increase my retraction distance from 0 up to 3mm without very much change at all. I feel like that is getting kind of high. Is it possibly realistic to go higher than that? What course of action would you recommend from here?
87% on the flow seems really low! But if that's what the results show I would stick with it. For the retraction I would keep going until you find the happy spot. What filament type? PLA?
@@pushingplastic7445 It is PLA+, Inland brand from microcenter
Love these videos, new to 3D printing and so far I really like creality print. Do you think you could go over how to increase the speed of your prints? 😁
Creality Print is a good slicer, don't let anyone tell you it's not. I have more videos on the way for Creality Print!!! Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!
