Dual Extrusion Clogging while on standby
Hi guys,
Hoping someone can help.
I have just purchased a new 3D printer - a Wombot Ceto V2.
I opted for this model as it fit within my budget and had both walls, a good quality heated bed and dual extruders (no Bowden tubes).
Anyway, I have finally got it printing to an acceptable standard with a single extruder however I am running in to some difficulties when slicing for two (currently both ABS).
I was hoping someone could provide me with a GCode for a filament purge cycle on both extruders at the beginning of a print?
Further, I am having issues with clogging. It seems when the nozzle is on standby the temperatures are not correct - should I be keeping ABS near it?s print temp at 235 when the extruder in standby is not printing?
Cura has opted for 180 to which I assumed was to avoid oozing?
My end goal is to be able to successfully print ABS regularly with HIPS as a support structure as many of the prints I undertake need supports in regions mechanical removal does not allow, or can at least be risky.
My nozzles are dead level, I have printed from both with the initial layer adhearing and the secondary nozzle not contacting the newly laid print.
I have 0.4 and 0.6 Volcano nozzles on board.
Hope someone can help!
Please explain to me how to...
