Pla on pla supports blowing over

Pla on pla supports blowing over

Still new to the works of 3d printing. I am trying to print this SpongeBob box for my nephew. It has supports inside that are breaking free from the pla base. The ones on the plate are staying out. This is the third time it’s done it. Once with box tree supports and twice with the normal round tree. I’ve left support on auto not knowing what to adjust.

I have aux fan deflectors on both sides. Any ideas? This is turning into an expensive box lol

Problems while printing

Hello, im new to 3d printing, and my family and i just got a X2D, we are trying to print the bin for the printer, so we can have a controlled mess, but the filament keeps getting unatached to the plate, i dont know why, can someone help me understand ans solve the problem?

Asa problems

What causes these shadows/marks? The ASA was properly dried, and the build plate is brand new. I can remove these spots with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and some vigorous scrubbing, but why do they appear in the first place?

2nd AMS 2, or AMS HT

Hey all,

I recently upgraded to a X2D and have the one AMS that came with it. For now, my external spool is a older filament dryers I got years ago. so I load manually into aux nozzle. not the end of the world, but it also only goes up to 55c. I want a second AMS with the track switch... My question is, I can't decide if I want a 2nd AMS 2, so I can load more stuff into it, or get a single HT there (space is also a concern). I don't print anything besides PLA, some occasional PETG and once in a while, ASA or ABS... I don't do any higher temp printing (I have some old polymaker PC from like 5 years ago I still haven't used lol). I planned on mostly using the aux nozzle for support material, but with a HT I can keep some ABS/ASA in there if I need to print something stronger. Not sure if AMS 2 can handle heating for ABS/ASA material (or the PC I have)

Thoughts? Honestly, I'm just looking for ease of use over the old school filament dryer that I have. track switch will help me keep the second AMS for support or main nozzle for when I want to print stuff besides PLA etc.

X2d vs p2s

I have an a1 combo and it keeps saying something is wrong with the ams lite but noting is wrong but I am thing about the x2d vs p2s now I am only printing pla plus but I want to print fun filaments like tpu and a lot more so which one should I go with. And does anybody know if the x2d is taller than the P2s because it has a 4mm taller built volume
Thank you

Is my X2D faulty or am I crazy?

I'm getting significant under-extrusion out of the box using Bambu PLA Basic Gray (filament has been dried).

Troubleshooting done so far:

  • Full factory reset
  • Performed cold pull 3 times
  • Full calibration complete
  • K-factor was automatically set to 0.02

Photos attached:

  • 1 Demo Benchy printed directly from the printer screen.
  • 2 Print using the default Bambu PLA profile with default Flow Rate: 0.98.
  • 3 Print with calibrated Flow Rate: 1.04.

The Problem:

Boosting the flow rate to 1.04 is the only thing that stops the under-extrusion, but now I'm getting weird, prominent lines across flat top surfaces.

Is my printer faulty? I assumed the default presets paired with official Bambu filament would work significantly better than this out of the box. Any ideas on what might be causing this? Thanks!

Suddenly getting z banding after flawless prints.

Apparently my phone dislikes taking images of this.

When I got my X2D a few weeks ago, it printed flawlessly. But after the hours I’ve put through it, it’s started looking worse overall.
Z banding, over extrusions or under extrusions are the main issue. This looks worse than my Ender 3

I’ve fully calibrated the printer again, but it didn’t help

X2D suddenly showing as X2E in BambuStudio?!?

Picked up a new X2D a week ago. Out of the box perfection until yesterday. Suddenly BambuStudio believes it is an X2E, and nothing I do seems to rectify it. Stranger yet, X2D isn’t even an option if I try to re-add it from scratch

Anyone else run into this?

X2D identical nozzles and clean PETG printing

Hi

  1. I know the x2d has to have identical size nozzles installed. Just thinking of when I'm printing with only the Main nozzle - If I installed a 0.4 mm high flow nozzle on the Main nozzle would I have to put a high flow one on the Aux as well, or could I stick with my existing 0.4 hardened one? Would the printer notice and refuse to work?

  2. I haven't yet printed any PETG. I read you have to put down glue on the default Textured plate so PETG will release. The Engineering plate says it has to be glued for everything but PLA. What I want to do is print clear transparent PETG and so I need a smooth plates and I really don't want to use glue. What smooth plate should I buy please?

(When I bought the X2D I was looking at Bambu's CoolTack plate and then I read the X2D isn't compatible with it and Bambu were releasing a new Pro one in August. No sign of it yet?)

What’s causing these waves/ripples on my X2D prints?

What could be causing these ripples? I’m printing basic Bambu PLA on a X2D with pressure advance calibrated, first-layer flow at 1.05, and Z-offset at 0. Still, some areas look under-extruded and others have too much filament piled up

first layer keeps failing when printing in ABS

As shown in the image, this is the third time in a row that the print failed at the first layer with some of the lines curling up and tanggled together, although I did manage to print one without any issue last night.

May I ask the cause of this issue, and how to fix it?

Thank.

I'm printing on bambu x2d, using bambu's abs filament.

P2S or X2D - First 3D printer

Hi,

I'm trying to figure the starting point of my 3D printing journey. My budget can accommodate either of these, with addition 0.2 and 0.6 nozzles and 4 spools of material.

Its about €150 difference so needs to wipe its own face, but I just don't want to start finding this thing useful and get buyers remorse a year down the track!

Im wanting to print functional parts as well as 40K-esque minis. I live in rural Spain, 31+ ambient temps (inside) during the summer.

Any advice welcome.

Any idea why I randomly will get this line on my prints?

All using bambu PLA basic. Color does not matter. Calibration has been done and filament dried.

PA6-CF X2D

Started printing some structural parts out of pa6-cf today, printed great on the x2d but can't seem to remove these horizontal lines, I believe it's shrinkage as the infil is extruded it repeats the walls, tried increasing the wall count which didn't effect it. Anyone have any ideas please?

Completely lost and in need on some assistance!

Hello all, I've been wanting to get into the hobby for a few years now, and I came across Bambu's anniversary sale a few weeks back. I bought the X2D with AMS 2 Pro combo. I added a second AMS 2 Pro and an AMS HT. Also, I got the filament track switch to make it all seamless.

I received the X2D combo a few weeks before the 2nd AMS 2 Pro and AMS HT arrived. I have to say the initial setup and first few prints went flawlessly. However, the nightmare began the moment the rest of my order showed up!......

I am getting the same two errors over and over, and I've trashed 3 spools' worth of prints so far because I had to stop them in order to address the errors. The first error is filament friction, and the second is that the extruder motor is jammed.

I have tried countless lengths of PTFE tubes between every possible connection. I have the 2.5mm ID tube as well and even tried the PTFE tube with the star-shaped ID.

My current configuration is as follows. My main AMS is hooked to the top slot in the FTS, and the second AMS & AMS HT are connected via a 4-into-1 splitter to the bottom inlet of the FTS. The only long PTFE tube is from the AMS HT, since I have it set on the left side of the printer. I just ordered a TPU Assist Module, thinking that I might be able to add it somewhere in the system to help boost the feeding to stop or reduce the friction somewhat.

I have a total of 360 hours printed on the machine. The last 120 hours only with the full setup. I'll link some photos of the setup. I also got the A1 combo at the same time and have had zero issues with it.

I am trying to print the BLV riser, but each section takes 32 hours if I enable the different material for the support interface. And when I don't select a different support material, it just sticks to itself and ruins it anyway.

I would be extremely grateful for any help or suggestions.
