Anycubic Mega-S and other 3D printers
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.

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.

* MECHANISM , I have a bracket, the printer was going on the first end of February. Separately, the tables could have been made before, but xs of course. And mostly high print temperatures * akarui , justify the dug and the subsequent presence of the bracket, is unknown which glue was used by the Chinese.

Change the type of support, their density. And most importantly, it is forbid a binding layer of support from above. I also suffered, until I turned it off.
You can scrape your support for support.

There are staples on a fresh widget for cleaning the table on offsay.

Everyone will have this, for reasons that I described above. I also dug out, I already overlap him.

It is necessary to change the springs on hard poliet and there will be no bending of tables

PS: How to print a vase to make the parties not bend? And then it would be necessary to print boxes for the rubble, and in normal mode too much plastic is spent.

Sadness. Now there is also a bundle: (
Who are modular lisks print to contain and not spend on plastic? And then I have all the models watched firing 100 grams of plastic on each item.

* Rewwan I would agreed if not specified specifications on the table (maximum T. printing 120 degrees). A good lathe on high speeds should not be unwinding nuts that hold the workpiece, for example. Especially when a hot table is the product of the same company as the printer. And, judging by the fact that the manufacturer sent a new table for free, they agree with that.

Already 120? It used to be 110, and recently began to write 100.

Yeah. Machine for thousands for 300. And for a hundred it will be all collapsed and does not correspond to the characteristics.
Our printer is worth 10k. And you demand a stable work at the limit of malfunction, when the entire Internet puts the thermoboxes and additional heating of the table

They do not agree with anything. They are experiencing a rating

PS ^ Cum up already discussed nonsense spare parts for the printer, otherwise I have a toad, and the conscience does not allow deceiving the manufacturer

I redid a table for fastening at 3 points, quite thoroughly came out, I did it while on the ambulance hand to check the performance of the idea. According to the results, I am very pleased, it is very simple to calibrate, now nothing fuses and does not pull! Now reprinted fastening model, I will add rigid rigidity there, well, and some moments a little remake, but mostly everything will remain as in the photo. What about the curve table, found out that the aluminum leaf is wounded below, when heated, the table becomes perfectly smooth. That is, aluminum him in the corners is tightened, he just glued in the corners, it would be some kind of soft, to spare it now, just to fix it on the brackets, I also stuck it from the corners (.

A photo.

Model typing standing on her side, so that it was stronger, as it was badly imprinted without support.

As a gasket, electrical paper, the corner is very hard, not aluminum, dural.

From the side of the side, the head does not reach the edge of the floor centimeter, at the end of the print, when the table leaves does not cling.

The other day I will buy 7 melamine sponges, they are very light, they will be used as thermal insulation, sticking, and on top of the foil, too, for silicone.
First printed without thermal insulation, then pasted the cardboard, the temperature began to gain faster, and less often heated, that is, I facilitate the life of the power supply, now the cardboard was removed because of the modernization, and the difference is noticeable straight, heats longer, the heating turns on more often, and the printer itself All that is hot becomes.

Did you try to shoot these springs? They are very tough.

Yes, they stretch the table during installation and it is already immediately wounded. It is necessary to put it in the desired height without effort and fix it.



Rep: (12)
* clawhammer2007,
It will be uncomfortable to calibrate, when changing plastic (change of temperature) will have. But as a yield, yes, the table will not bend so without springs. I did not quite understand because of the mistake that you had in mind the "Polish" thought that they offer to stick even more hard)

If only people conscience allowed to achieve truth, and not to feel that they made an enchanting facilities, just selling the thing - the quality of goods from China would long have grown. And it would be stopped to deceive.

Rather, they would sell printers at the price of the original ~ 65,000

Pig ratio is not saving, these are spending too. After all, our claims are not a printer, as such, but to the quality of its assembly and some things. Calculate how much one shipment is shipped in the heart of the world. But they could collect carefully and check it, or something ... Yes, let it be more expensive for 2 tyr.

Printer purchased at the beginning of 2019, the firmware did not update the firmware. It has a maximum temperature of 120 degrees, which is written on a table for a table - I do not remember, but not less than 110 degrees.

If you do anything, then in the characteristics maximum indicate not the value on which the product begins to fail, and recommended for stable operation. (For example, the phones normally work in the range from -10 to +45, but manufacturers are customized and indicate the lowered numbers: from 0 to 35).

Shl. I wish to find a compromise between toak and conscience :)
