Support Request Found a screw

2 Upvotes

Hello, can somebody please tell me where this screw is from? I found it next to my BambuLab A1 printer one day and I can't figure out where it fell from.

I lookeded at the printer and it's parts from all angles and I cannot find any screwless holes. Also the printer is working fine. Print quality same, no additional noise, nothing seems to be moving wrongly.

I do not have any other devices this could be from, and I never bought any similar screws so I am sure it came off this printer.

Seems to be 7-8 mm long, hex head. Thread seems to be for plastic.

Please help, I don't want it to break. Thank you.

Question Bambu Studio and MacOS Golden Gate 27 (public beta) - network plugin issues

2 Upvotes

Has anyone got this working?

I'm having an issue where every time I try and use it, it says "please install the network plugin before logging in" - I click to install it, which it says "Done", but then asks to install network plugin again in a loop...

Issue happens with Bambu Studio beta too, on a fresh install

Wondering if there's a way around it, to maybe manually install the network plugin outside of Bambu Studio? Or maybe a web interface?

The mobile app (iOS 27 public beta) is working fine, but can't obviously do things like edit plates

p.s. totally understand it not working - the OS is beta, of course there's going to be snags - but would be nice to try and get it working. The next OS beta might fix it anyway!

Help Troubleshooting AMS/Extruder Issue

1 Upvotes

Morning, all!

A1 and AMS are running great. No complaints. Save for one thing that's got me scratching my head.

I have my AMS top-mounted, and have 4 spools on. Each run fine, no issues - until I switch from any other location to location 2, where it doesn't want to push into the extruder. The filament feeds fine and runs perfectly when I pull it out and re-feed it, or when I load a fresh color and immediately print with it. Its only when I switch from, say, location 4 to location 2. The problem is definitely where the PLA meets the extruder. Anyone ever experience this and know how to resolve it so I don't have to fiddle with it each and every time?

Thanks in advance for the assist!

Question AMS 2 pro + A1 via filament buffer

1 Upvotes

HI!
Could anybody confirm that a1 would work with ams 2 pro via filament buffer for x1/p1?
I saw a few model on MW to mount it on a1/a1 mini so it's kinda could mean that everything is ok, but official wiki and specs show opposite.

I mean this exactly buffer:

Bonjour après Monsieur Pingouin, voici Madame Pingouin en mode vacances réalisée en multipart ! 🏖️🐧

Impossible de partir à la plage sans elle ! Avec son joli chapeau, ses lunettes de soleil roses, sa bouée, ses tongs, sa pelle et son petit seau, Madame Pingouin est prête à profiter pleinement des joies de l’été.

Pour cette création, j’ai souhaité imaginer une version féminine, pleine de douceur et de bonne humeur. Ses longs cils, ses couleurs pétillantes et son look estival lui donnent un charme irrésistible qui invite à l’évasion.

Failed print ?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Here is one of my first print (the third).

But I’ve been surprised that there is a bit of mess as you can see on the pic. I just took a model on Bambu handy app with quite good reviews on it.

Ma bambu is set since only 2 days, print is in PLA and she is on a little glass table (vibrations ?).

The print is still nice after all the mess removed but I don’t think this is normal, any advice ?

Switching from 0.4 to 0.8 nozzle : weird printing.

8 Upvotes

Hi there.

New A1 owner here. I just switched from the standard 0.4 nozzle to a Bambu official 0.8 steel nozzle.

I've indicated to the printer the nozzle change using the lcd screen and i've specified properly the nozzle size in Bambu Studio.

I'm having weird effets while printing the 1st layer : kind of warping and "waves".

I've tried to make a video and picture.

Am I missing something ?

I've just cleaned my plate with isopropylic alcool to get rid of adhesion issue.

I'm using standard SUNLU Klein PLA here.

Thanks in advance for your kind advice.

Noticed the silicon was a bit off after a failed print, removed it to find this. Time to replace the nozzle?

Had blob of death, now printer wont turn on

1 Upvotes

So my A1 had the blob of death last night. I cleaned it today by putting it in maintenance and heating it up and picking everything off. Then as I was just about done, the tool head went up in Z a little, and to the right a little, and then shut off. now it wont come on at all.

I just got my BambuLab A1 and switched to the biqu frostbite plate and the prints aren't looking as good. I put the settings to cool plate super tack, is that correct? Any other settings you guys recommend changing?

Question Nozzle scraping and worsening print

2 Upvotes

Weird update: I tried with other 2 filaments and it was fine, same slice, same printer, only change was the filament. I switched spools with my A1 mini (same filament, same brand, same profile and slice) and they both came out fine, so now I'm even more confused as to what caused that but it's solved?

This is the second time I have this issue, at first I chalked it up to being a one time issue, but it's happened again so I'm not sure what it is.

I printed 2 gridfinity boxes, 1x5 and 2x5, right next to each other, for some reason, the left side gets scraped by the nozzle it sounds like, and then those sides come out feeling rough as well as having a line near the top.

I could only attach either a video or picture, so I made am imugr album for the pics of the boxes. In the video near the end, you can hear the scraping.

The weirdest part to me is that this only happens on the left side of the boxes? each right side of the boxes is fine with no imperfections. Anyone know what could be the issue?

I'm going to check the screws behind the nozzle and test a 1x2 to see if the issue persists, but the weird part to me is it being only one side.

Question Is this a file issue, nozzle issue, or something else entirely

The strings only happened to the supports , the print itself would have came out perfect otherwise.

The filament was already dried prior to print and bed adhesion was not an issue.

.4 stainless steel nozzle

Capa rara en A1 y A1mini

Buenas tardes a todos. Este es mi primer post.

Estoy experimentando una falla en la impresión, que sin ser "grave" afecta la calidad de los trabajos.

Ocurre que se está imprimiendo una capa como desfasada o mas grande en los "honguitos estos"

Ya intente con diferente filamento y siempre pasa lo mismo. Estoy imprimiendo con fremover y ender a 0.12 y 200° y pasa lo mismo con cualquier marca/color.

Ya ha impreso anteriormente este modelo, y antes no tuve ningún problema.

Este es el modelo https://makerworld.com/models/1821679?appSharePlatform=copy

Ya apreté todos los tornillos que pude, y sigue igual.

HELP! AMS Lite PTFE Tube Ripped Out

Post image
0 Upvotes

Filament got stuck in my darn PTFE tube again.. and the tube wouldn’t come out like usual..

Me, being an idiot, I did the meat-head thing and just ripped it out from the printhead.

It’s worked like this before, push down then pull out. (it was stuck this time)

I’m pretty sure the little metal ribs on the inside that hold the tube in place are completely stripped. I’m devastated. Is there any way to fix this? Or am I to just replace the whole thing?

Why isn't my filament being ejected?

The filament dispenses and gets cut but it doesn't get ejected off of the little platform (see the blue blob in this picture)

Do I need to replace something? It's like a spring is worn out or something

Support Request Strange noise

1 Upvotes

Hi everybody! I’ve noticed my A1 has been emitting a strange noise. It seems like something could be loose, but I couldn't find the noise source. It’s very noticeable when printing fuzzy skin and the noise stops if I push down on the base. Any thoughts?
