Massive stringing on A10T

[eddyuk]

Hi,

I tried to print an object that has gaps, and noticed that there is a massive stringing going on.
Here is the example: https://photos.app.goo.gl/da3dMNJAiGjKGDV49
I created a test model and played with settings that are marked with red rectangle in the picture and it seems to work fine with tester.



Now I tried to print a model that is in the video and seems like it didn't affect at all.

Thanks

I've only had my A10T for a few weeks. When I first got it I had very bad stringing, like you are having and a week later, everything worked better.

My speed is 60mm/s, retraction 6mm and retraction speed 40mm/s, and added a coast distance of .1mm and running at 205c. I'm running hot because I'm mixing soluble filament which likes a hotter temp with pla. My fan speed is 60%, with jumps at 100%. .4mm nozzle height, .4mm nozzle, .2mm layer height.

I also reseated the white tubes going from the feed to the extruder.

I have not changed the nozzle. The filament in the photo is the same brand as used i the video, so I do not credit filament. The blue filament in the video is one from geetech and the other are hatchbox, which I haven't noticed a difference.

Still a work in progress.

Sounds like you are using factory settings (if you use Cura). 1 question - what is "coast distance of .1mm"? Is it setting? If so where is it located?
Thanks

In cura, it appears to be in the printer setup, where you setup the quality, shell, infill... Search for coast.

Re-surfacing the issue: still present and seems that nothing I do makes any difference. The stringing seems to stay at same volume. Any suggestions? I use Cura 4.6.1

Hi， you can do this：
1. Increase the retraction distance (6mm)
2. Increase the retracting speed (40mm / s)
 3. Improve printing speed
4. Calibration step and multiplier
5. Increase heat dissipation: increase fan speed

Thanks for answers guys. Actually, the case were different. I found hidden and disabled by default option in Cura called Retract at layer change. As soon as I enabled it, all the stringing disappeared and print was perfect.

That's good, congratulations！

any chance you can share your settings in cura?? I cannot get a good print at all!!
