Why this happens?
This is ASA filament. 260 nozzle, 100 bed.
The quality is very bad.
WHat can cause it?
Thank you....
Artifacts and bad overall quality for first ABS print.
Finally got to installing an enclosure on my V-core 4 500, so i could start printing with ABS. I used the bambulab ABS with the Ratfil ABS preset but the result is not too good. Wierd artefacts at the end of layers as well as the shape is not too square. What might be the parameters that cause this?
Rough ABS top layer
Hey guys, this is my first time printing ABS.
Right now I'm kind of struggling with larger top surfaces which are really rough and wavey.
At first, I thought it was a cooling issue, since the first layer above the infill started looking rough. I noticed that it was using the bridging fan speed for that layer, which was way too high. To fix this, I set a separate fan speed of 10% for internal bridges, and that solved the problem with the first layer above the infill being rough. However, after two or three more top layers, I still get this wavy or rough pattern.

Ratrig calibration cube results
Hi guys, not quite sure what settings to adjust to make some of the features cleaner, I’m leaning towards temperature (?) Any help would be great!
Under extrusion on the corners, but PA is dialed in
Hey! Did several types of PA tuning and got the same result 0.02 for my ABS, but I’m getting like under extrusions on the corners, also there is seen gap on top layers between outer layer and infill/top fill. Any ideas?
Almost gaps in print
I am noticing some almost gaps & bad corners on my prints.
It is hard to see in black PLA.
Could this be a pressure advance setting? If so do I increase or reduce it?
Or a square corner velocity?
Currently I am using pretty much RatRig default PLA sliver settings on my AWD VC3.1...
Layer shift multicolor idex
Hey everyone,
I’ve got a V-Core 4 (500 mm, IDEX) and I’ve been going through the full commissioning guide. All calibrations check out ok— motion system, squareness, tramming, belts, etc. Everything prints good in single-extruder mode.
The only issue I’m hitting is when I try multi-color printing with IDEX: I get a layer shift in the X direction....
Massive random later shift after first layer
I just finished the physical build on my VC4 400 and after running through the calibrations I kicked off a simple test print. Every time it prints the first layer well then just randomly shifts a couple inches and attempts to print the second layer in a seemingly random location. The attached pictures are 2 attempts about 15 minutes apart.
My printer is far from being fully dialed in but I'm not sure what would cause this.
I'm running orca slicer and used one of the built in profiles....
Bad z-seam
Hey guys,
I have a problem with my print.
The Z-Seam is so bad and I don’t know how to fix it.
I’m printing with extrudr tpu 98a.

Calibration cube tuning
Just finished printing the calibration cube.
I'm amazed at the results, however I'd like to know what and how I should tune the printer/slicer now based on the cube.
The threaded bolt screws in a couple turns, however is quite stiff so immediately I think Xy compensation would be required....
Bad outer Surface quality with voids
I am suddenly experiencing print artifacts, that I have never seen before... it was all good up to this print, so I have no clue what could be causing it. I'll attach some photos, maybe someone knows what this could be.
If you need any other info, let me know 😉...
inconsistent first layer
after a lot of struggling I finally get a somehow function printer. I have huge trouble with the first layer. I calibrated the beacon. don't know what to do next it's a v-core4 500
Adhesion issue
I've done all the calibration, z offset, scoure pad soap clean, light fine sand paper, bed leveling, height map, magigoo, filament dryer, dehumidifier box reading 19 % etc etc and I get this happening. I've tried everything I can think of or find on the forums.
Infill is not supporting the print
Hey guys, I have a little problem here. Namely, the infill collapses in itself. Actually, it should be on the same level as the outer wall, but you can see in the pictures that it is collapsing.
I use a nozzle with a diameter of 0.8 mm and print PLA+ with 220°C at 25 mm³/s at 55°C print bed temperature. The infill pattern is triangles. Cooling at 100%. But I also have to save material. Do you have any suggestions for me?...
Print rather weak ( i can easily squish it. And top layer looks bad
Vcore 3.1 stock with beacon. What could this be. The walls are fine. The infi just doesnt really want to adhere super well. And the top layer looks really bad
