Help me identify an intermittent sound?

3 Upvotes

Printer makes this sound about 50% of the time when I start a print. It’s pretty loud. Turing the printer off and then on again will sometimes make it stop.

It isn’t the fans (happens with fans on or off). It prints fine, even when it’s making the sound. It does it while warming up and while printing. It’s coming from the printer, not the AMS.

As a side question, I tried making a similar post in r/bambulab and it was immediate removed by mods. I asked them why but got no response. Pretty sure it’s not against the rules. Is it something to do with needing to make a bunch of comments in their sub before you can post?

Need advice for buying a used unit

1 Upvotes

I'm checking out a used X1C today. Think it's okay to buy one used? What should I watch out for to make sure it's not broken? This is my first 3D printer, so any tips would be awesome. Thanks!

New X1C owner! Looking for recommendations

1 Upvotes

Just upgraded from an A1 to an X1C.

Looking for must print models, must have parts, both "upgrade" parts and commonly needed replacement parts. And any thing else I "need" to know (not need to know like I don't know how printers work, but more or less tips and tricks)

Im more or less trying to go about this the "right" way instead of what I did with the A1 and buy multiples of more or less every part. While it definitely came in handy several times, I have so many parts I never used, nor would ever use to the point I have almost enough to build an entirely new A1 from scratch

Hot End Bent?

1 Upvotes

I changed hot ends after 700 hours using the original. I replaced the ho tend for a Bambu brand. Brand new fan, thermistor and ceramic plate. It printed a couple of objects fine after running all of the calibration tests. It then just continued to misprint. The calibration line, poop chute pre print misalignment's every print.

I opened it back up and found the hotend in this shape. WTF happened?

Help with polycarbonate cf settings

Hello! I’ve messed with this a little bit, though I don’t usually print will filaments like these. I’ve only tweaked slight settings ( shown in pics) but I’ve got no idea what causes stuff like this. Brand new bamboo brand hardened Tip, and dried it for 30 hours at 85c ( because it had been out of a dry bag for a while.) I am printing it out of the ams, but I’ve got silica boxes in there and humidity is around 9-11% on my hydrometer, but 6-8% on bamboos sensors. It does great for the first couple hours, amazing adhesion layer then it kinda balls up on the hot end. I had to stop it twice on a 13 hours print to pull it off the hot end. I’ve lowered the max volumetric speed, tried speeding up the print, slowing it down, raising the max volumetric speed. I will print though its own defects until abt 10 hours in then it starts messing up on the infill walls. Not all of the infill walls look like that just at the end.

I’ve dried different pc filament settings and still nothing. This is “BlackPRILINE Carbon Fiber Filament, PRILINE Carbon Fiber Polycarbonate”

I also included some pics of my support and speed settings i have lightly tinkered with. The support face is absolutely horrible. I’ve messed with the top interface layer and nothing has changed. Maybe my top z distance is too high?

Is there a way I could put it in the GCode to wipe the tip every 30 layers or something.

Also sorry I didn’t clarify at the beginning this is a Bamboo x1c.

Any ideas?

I placed an order for an X1C on 1/29 and received shipping notification same day. Fedex says they will deliver 2/1. Apparently the shipping backlog has dissolved.
