| May 22, 2018 at 7:20 | comment | added | Granny | @FernandoBaltazar I currently do not have a photo of anything. But I did however solve my problem. The heatbreak was a all-metal variant. For some odd reason my printer did not like this one bit. I solved it by using one with PTFE tube inside the heatbreak. | |

| May 16, 2018 at 6:50 | comment | added | Granny | @FernandoBaltazar Maybe my wording was a bit wrong. It is as good as cold but I can feel a slight warmth. Its not hot its not super warm, i would say roughly around the 20/30 degrees. | |
| May 15, 2018 at 21:20 | comment | added | Fernando Baltazar | @Granny according the noise and slips I'm sure that the spiral heatbreak is the problem because that part need to be cold not warm, the cooling fan must be active all time at 100%. | |

| May 15, 2018 at 18:40 | comment | added | Granny | @0scar So i just made a test print. The stepper reaches a max temp of around 35 degrees. Which I do not believe is too hot. | |
| May 15, 2018 at 6:38 | comment | added | Granny | @AthanasiosKaragiannis Ill check that tonight. But the extruder is defenitely not weak when this happends, it twists and bends my whole mount with it. But I do have the wires ziptied to the frame, maybe in a wrong way. Thanks :) | |
| May 15, 2018 at 6:37 | comment | added | Granny | @0scar I am not sure, ill have to check that tonight. | |
| May 15, 2018 at 6:36 | comment | added | Granny | @profesor79 I have a small guide tube going into the E3D up until the bottom bit of the extruder stepper. I doubt it will be bending because the spool is literally above it. Also why would it bend on roughly the same spot everytime? Not that its not possible ill check for it anyway. | |
| May 15, 2018 at 0:57 | comment | added | Athanasios Karagiannis | I had a similar issue, but probably not your issue. Either way, in case it is, I would check the wiring for the extruder. Maybe when it reaches a certain height, a fault in the wire itself causes disconnects and hence a extruder stopping/being weak. I tested by pulling/dancing the wires as I manually set extrusion. Seemed to stop when wires were stretched. Sounds weird but I redid my wiring and the extruder wouldn't start acting up halfway through anymore. Let us know if you figure it out. Good luck. | |
| May 14, 2018 at 21:36 | comment | added | 0scar♦ | Is your extruder stepper getting really hot? | |
| May 14, 2018 at 19:04 | comment | added | profesor79 | do you have the filament feed in a teflon tube to extruder? maybe it bends extensively and extruder has trouble to pull? | |
