Hi everyone,
i'm experiencing a strange issue with my Da vinci Pro 1.0.
When i'm printing (Pla) with a raft everything is fine; But when i'm not using a raft (same params but i'm unchecking "use a raft" i've got no filament flow...
What i am missing ? any idea ?
Re: No flow when not using a raft
Same issue on Dremel 3d45
Only can print if I select raft

Re: No flow when not using a raft
It sounds like these two issues may not have the same cause as these printers are fairly different but could either of you please post a Factory File? It would help us in giving some suggestions.
My immediate thought would be that you may have a partial clog or may be printing too close to the bed. The raft in Simplify3D will print higher off the bed and with more plastic being extruded so it is possible those factors are compensating for the clog or closeness to the build surface.

Re: No flow when not using a raft
I put my money on printing the first layer too close to the bed. Sounds like an ancient fruit of the deciduous trees and shrubs in the genus Castanea.
Tweak the Global-Z (GCode tab) in a positive direction by approx. 1/3 your layer thickness and try printing again.

Re: No flow when not using a raft
Thanks guys.
My nozzle doesn't seem to be clogged. With this printer i can test the filament flow and everything is fine.
i will try to lower my bed and see if it solve my problem

Re: No flow when not using a raft
Ok, first sorry for the no response i was a little bit busy ^^.
I've tried to lower my bed (my nozzle was way over the bed) and i've still got not enough flow but when i stop the print and start to load the filament i'dont have the probleme.
Is there a way to increase the flow ?
