3D Printers: Discussion, Accessories, 3D Models
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Features
Anycubic Mega-S is the successor to the popular Mega i3 printer with updated components that allow you to print flexible materials. It also has an integrated coil holder for a more compact look.
Features:
- Upgraded extruder capable of printing flexible parts with TPU filament
- Ultrabase's innovative heated 3D printing platform makes it very easy to remove parts after cooling. Details will have a nice smooth bottom surface.
- Integrated one-piece filament holder for smoother material delivery and compact placement. The newest V5 nozzle that makes printing accurate and fast. The risk of clogging is greatly reduced.
- Simple assembly. The printer was mainly pre-assembled at the factory and tested within 24 hours. Assembly is only 8 screws and three cables, and you are ready to go. The kit even includes 1 kg of filament.
- Dual Z-axis sensors make calibration more accurate
- Durable aluminum profile frame. A stiffer frame results in more accurate printing.
- Simple navigation and quick response on a TFT color touch screen. It has a multilingual menu and a wide range of software options.
- Resume printing after power loss. A useful feature, especially for large print models.
- Intelligent temperature control system. It provides a temperature in the range of 2 В° C from its parameters to prevent the random effect of thermal acceleration.

Calibration
Print defects
Problems and solutions
  • The printer's table does not heat up well; it does not heat up more than 100 degrees.
    As a temporary solution, you can use the desktop insulation and an additional tool to improve the adhesion of plastic, which will allow you to print at lower temperatures. The problem is solved by replacing the table under warranty.
  • Nozzle clogged.
    Solution: you can clean it with a special drill to clean the nozzles. Or,assistantsby methods.
    And to prevent blockages - you need to hang on the filament rod -filterfilled with pieces of sponge and other suitable materials.
  • The screen lights up if you manually move the carriage or table, with the printer turned off.
    No solution required, normal behavior.
  • The cover of the table is peeled off / the table is not even / there are bumps and / or cavities that prevent printing.
    Solution: demand to send a new warranty table from sellers. As a temporary solution, you can try to turn it over with the other side, replace the cover with another glass / mirror, etc.
  • Heat the contacts of the transition connector of the print head.
    Solution: Immediately install a fixing cable holder (for example,such) and / or pour the slot of the thermoclaim. If the contacts have already burned down - Repair is describedhere.
  • The nozzle / thermal bounds are formed / the particles of superheated plastic are formed.
    Solution: Going away Hotend. Assembly is describedhere.
  • Do not clean the aluminum part of the table from the standard ultrabase glue.
    Solution: Try to a hot (110g) to pass spray degreaser based on nephyres and isopropyl alcohol. Also a proven method - remover of adhesive tape on the basisD-Limonen.

* IIOJIYHO4HUK , what is the problem of uploading normal firmware from your version? It should be on their office site. Or in the community.
And judging by the kit for modernization, the extruder did not change. Only plastic feed system.

[SN* MECHANISM , that's just because of the supply of plastic and the wrong overflow of filament is the firmware for the old feeder put in a copy ok it became

Hi, try to calibrate the table at a table temperature of 60 degrees

I confirm. the printer came to me and there was also a bulge in the center until it warmed up. it is strange that the manual does not say anything about it.

I think the temperature of the nozzle or airflow
What material do you print? Temperature?

Updated to mega-s and such problems started here. Tell me what the problem is

Make the first layer always 0.1
Raise the table temperature by 5-10 degrees when printing the first layer
This is all configurable in the slicer ... examples in the header

* IIOJIYHO4HUK,
Configure in Cura all the same settings as here on the screenshots -3D printer Anycubic Mega-S (Post max-gulyash # 82436925)
Including fences, walls, etc. Filling, supports, type of adhesion and temperature of the table is at your discretion and try to print
I repeat, I immediately flashed out of the box and from the test flash drive I started printing owls and was horrified! I was thinking how to turn in the printer ... until I set up the slicer and he began to create an adequate gcode for the printer with new firmware

Firmware 1.1.3 appeared, but 1.2.0 disappeared from the Anycubic server
Moreover, build 1.1.3 is uploaded on February 25, 2019
Added to the header and try to write in support to clarify

Ha. finally got into the guts of the printer, they scared that in the last deliveries the engine drivers were soldered to the board, it got through, everything is removed.
prefigel from how the rear panel is, completely blocking the cooler on the drivers, turned over and now the cooler has access to air O_o

Is it Mega S? Or I3?

i3. but on mega-with the same. maybe they will fix it in a couple of years. leave room for innovation.

And someone, as a result, tried to print with materials like flex on the new Mega-S model?



Rep: (48)
* MECHANISM, The black part is ABS from Volprint. Red - FLEX probe from Bestfilament. Model height 13mm, в€… 15 mm.
Moreover, the Astroprint service acted as a slicer for the flex model (as the laptop is under repair). Table 110-113 °, nozzle - 243 °. Result ... norms, for the first time. Prior to this, the printer was charged with black ABS, after printing these parts, set the ABS again. Now I’m printing small details, so I would have noticed problems with clogging the extruder right away.

problems with clogging the extruder would have noticed immediately.

Yes, that’s not the point. They write that flexible plastic is “chewed” by the feed motor, on the old version of I3. And then a new motor, I wonder how fixed.
