    Hotend Problem

    Hello people, I'm new here in the forum and for 1 year in 3D printing.
    I hope you can help me, I've been solving my problem for a month, but without success.

    Basic data:
    - Tronxy X3 Bowden extruder
    - 0.4mm Nozzle
    - Autodesk Fusion 360
    - Cura 3.0.4

    My problem is that after about 10-15min the hotend nothing more extruded.
    And if I restart the printing without any change, no more filament comes out.

    What I have done:

    - With the original Hotend
    - Nozzle Cleaning
    - Throat Cleaning
    Everything without success. Starts well, but after a few minutes less and less is extruded.

    - Buy a new Hotend (Clone E3D V6) with Nozzle, different Throats, Heat block, Push Fitting and PTFE Tube
    - Everything without success, exactly the same problem.
    - tried different Throats with PTFE tube and and Full metal
    - tried different filaments PLA, ABS, PP
    - Because the filaments were 1 year old, I bought a new PLA filament.
    - tried different temperatures from 190 ? C to 240 ? C

    The problem is not the extruder, because if nothing else can be extruded, I try to push it by hand and it comes out very little or nothing at all. If I then clean the Nozzle or do a "cold pull", go it again for a few minutes.


    I hope you can help me, because I've run out of ideas.



    Edit:
    Prints with retraction to 4.00 mm and speed 30mm/s

    push through the hotend without nozzle


    push through the hotend with nozzle

    ( nozzle cleaned shortly before )

    1 Print with 220?C


    Pictures from the first print


    2 Print with 195?C ( 2 Print because 1 print was too hot for the Filament )


    Pictures from the second print ( left 220?C; Right 195?C )


    how that should look like


    Before the problem started. I could print with 60mm`s without over or under extrusion with straight and sharp edges.
    Likewise, the top layer was perfect.
