An IT support technician is setting up a new fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printer. During the initial test print, the extruded filament fails to adhere to the heated build bed and gathers into a tangled mass of plastic around the print head nozzle. Which of the following maintenance or calibration procedures should the technician perform first to resolve this issue?
- Calibrate the bed leveling and adjust the nozzle Z-offset.Cevap
- BClean the primary charge roller with high-percentage isopropyl alcohol.
- CIncrease the fuser assembly temperature setting in the print queue properties.
- DReplace the optical transfer roller and reset the maintenance counter.
Cevap
Calibrate the bed leveling and adjust the nozzle Z-offset.
In FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printing, first-layer adhesion depends on having a level build plate and a correctly calibrated Z-offset. If the nozzle is too far from the bed, the melted filament will not adhere to the surface and will warp or drag, creating a tangled mass of plastic.
