print in place help! (voice chat with someone who's experienced with 3d printing would be perfect)

[analog anvil]

Soo I've been having nothing butnissues with 3d printing, from quality too everything but one thing has always without fail....failed, print in places none of them work and quality has not been the greatest, that is suppose too be w phone stand but it fused so when I went too crack it too release the hinge it broke, soo ya I need help

AI Help

It sounds like you may be having issues with adhesion to the print bed or possibly with the slicing settings for your prints. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot:

1. Ensure your printer bed is level and properly calibrated.
2. Make sure your print bed is clean and free of any residue that could affect adhesion.
3. Adjust the printing temperature and speed settings in your slicer software.
4. Check the quality of your filament - old or poor-quality filament can cause issues with print quality.
5. If the phone stand design has thin or delicate parts, you may need to adjust your slicer settings for better support.

If you continue to have issues, it might be helpful to join a 3D printing community or forum for more specific advice based on your printer model and the materials you are using.

I use anycubic slicer and am using a anycubic korba 2 neo

[nocturne jolt]

What infill percentage are you using, and what was recommended by the designer?

[analog anvil]

20%

Used pla too like the designer said

[nocturne jolt]

Peel this bit open and see what's inside?

[analog anvil]

How?

[nocturne jolt]

I'd either redesign to add strength where it snapped, change location on the bed and make sure the infill pattern reinforces the weak spots, or increase infill a lot.

Ok, I'd do both of the first 2.

[nocturne jolt]

Knife, pliers, screwdriver, whatever you have to hand that can disect your failed print

[analog anvil]

What do you mean by cut open? What am I looking for?

I broke off one of the hinges after taming off the arms

So only certain parts are fusing

[nocturne jolt]

I'm seeing a lot of empty space for 20% infill

[analog anvil]

But it's a hing

[nocturne jolt]

The bit that attaches the hinge to the rest of the print is just outer layers, nothing inside to add strength.

[analog anvil]

Do you have a test print in place I can do???

[nocturne jolt]

All the visible breaks show as completely hollow, no strength being added at all by infill.

[analog anvil]

Just so we can I don't know workshop this

[nocturne jolt]

No, I don't have a stock of test prints.

[analog anvil]

I wish this place had voice chat

[nocturne jolt]

Can you check your slicer, and screenshot a mid layer of the layer by layer breakdown?

[analog anvil]

Huh???

[nocturne jolt]

It was impossible to moderate.

[analog anvil]

Dang it, would it be cool if we switched too a voice chat?

[nocturne jolt]

Some slicers allow you to look at how the print will be run, so you can look at the sliced print and check the paths and infill patterns etc.

It's 11:30pm here, I'll be heading to bed soon.

[analog anvil]

I'll send the screenshots now

so what do i do?

i found a tollerence tester

[nocturne jolt]

So we can see the points of breakage had infill lines just before and after them, we need to find a way to reinforce the areas that snapped.

Modify the design file with extra walls in those areas.

If you have the link I can look at it for you (assuming it's a free to use STL).

[analog anvil]

it is

can i send th stl

i got it off printables

[nocturne jolt]

I'll take a look tomorrow and answer here.

[analog anvil]

ok
