3d Print problem.
Hello,
I would like to 3d print a model with ASA filament.
The problem is it gets really badly done. What could be the problem?
In the next post i wil post my specifications of printing. Any idea what could be going wrong?
Best regards,

well those don't really tell us much.
Print temp - 222 - seems a bit low
Saying speed is 100% - means absolutely nothing unless you know what it's 100% of.
There are some really odd settings in there.
layer height 0.09.
raft layers: 6
A raft should really just be the one or maybe 2 layers, it's there for people who don't have a decent print surface and can't print without a raft.
9 top layers !
wow. Don't think I've ever gone higher than 5.
What slicer are you using ?
There's just stuff in there that makes very little sense.
Looking at it I'd have to say that it looks a lot thicker than 0.09mm, insufficient cooling and printing too fast and possibly too cool.
lots of over extrusion.

Yeah sory im totally new and i am just trying out what each thing does lol.
Max. print speed: Manufacturer claim of 100 mm/s
With slicer you mean Software? Im using the default software that came with the printer, Z suite.
Can you help me set up the parameters to get the best results.
This is the model im trying to make.

looks like one of those optical illusions.
I'm guessing Supports will be needed as I can't figure out where all the bottom bits are :-)
Okay - if we're starting with a 100mm/s baseline. Then your first layer should be somewhere between 10-30% Assuming a good print surface that filament adheres to well. Start with 10% - you can always go faster for other prints.
Main speed - for something as weird looking as that, probably 50mm/s - 50%
try it at 0.2mm layer height to start with.
Also read this: https://www.matterhackers.com/articl...h-asa-filament
temps look more like 250c print temp and 110c bed temp.
depending on what the part is supposed to do - you'd probably be better off with pla.
My standard settings for most things anl all my printers are:
top and bottom layers: 3
outlines: 3
Infill 15-30%. Infill can be weird. for smaller parts you usually need a higher percentage to get the same density a lower setting will give you in larger prints.
Part cooling should be -0% for the first layer and 100% for all other layers. You've got a lot of fairly steep overhangs, so coolling usually helps with that.
What print surface are you using ?
glass, metal, tape, glue, pei, etcLast edited by curious aardvark; 06-01-2019 at 08:02 AM.

Its not meant to be optical illusion
I dont think i can change the speed of print in the midway of print, i can only change it for the whole print.
As for the platform, its metal i think with holes in it, but i never had any problems with sticking print to the platform. Im using the default generated suports, which seem to do the trick most of the time.

the first layer is listed seperately, so should be a seperate setting - it is in all the slivers I've ever seen.
If speed isn't a problem - then try the higher temps
