Heigth of Extruder 0 and 1

Post by Ikoriko »

I completed the building of the i3 pro C with dual extruder.

My problem is when i try to print. The second exturder get the printing of the first and remove it from the bed.

I think this is why the both extruders are at same height from the bed. Anyone know how to move up a few the second extruder? if is the case, any other solution.

The height of the two extruders should be the same , maybe is the way that you slice the object to solve this problem?

The first layer is not stick well to the bed. maybe is the problem.
And it seems that the filament is burned black, what's the temperature you set for the extruder?

When i purchased the kit, i especified that i want black PLA; but it seems (by the experiments with temperatures) that sended ABS filament.

When i try with PLA settings, the temperature was 215° in the extruder and 60° in the bed.

When i try with ABS settings, the temperatura was 245° in the extuder and 100° in the bed.

I want to make a note: I discovered that it was two nuts to adjust the height of the extruders, i adjusted about 1 mm upper the second one to get this.
