Simplify3D User Forum

Hey guys! So I have been playing around with Simplify3D using my Flashforge Finder, but I never get the results I want. I am using the normal Flashforge Finder profile but it still comes out super stringy all the time.
I have been trying mixing the settings and checking guides on which settings I should pick. I have made like 20+ Jolly Boats and they always come out stringy no matter what settings I pick.
I also tried using the normal slicer for the Finder called Flashprint, and I get better results there with the normal settings, but still a little bit stringy aswell, a little less than with Simplify3D tho'.

Is there anyone with any suggestions? Maybe someone who also uses the Flashforge Finder? Thanks in advance!

What filament and temps?
Retraction settings are going to either help or hurt but printing to hot can be the main cause. Also some filaments and colors string more than others.

Im using white Flashforge Filament, tried everywhere from 180-220 degrees!

Rather than everyone guessing what your settings are and making stab in the dark suggestions, why not post a factory file for the latest test you've done.

Well, I have been using the factory Flashforge Finder profile. The only thing I've done is changing the retraction speed to higher and the retraction distance a bit higher, and the travel speed. Still getting the same results, nothing makes any particular difference... any help? Maybe someone with a Finder with the same problem? Or anyone with the Finder wanna post their profile maybe? Cheers

Doug asked for the "factory File" You can generate it from the File menu > export Factory or something like that. Not in front of it right now.

Also, have you tried another filament? Until then you may be fighting a filament that is just stringy.

I had this recently. A translucent purple I have was very stringy and I could get it to stop but it wasn't until I tried another color, same brand etc. but in red and it worked perfectly thus realizing what I had forgotten that even from color to color it can act differently.

I do have a Finder but I don't have that problem. As the others mentioned -> factory file could help. However... since you say you use the defaults... well.

A picture would also be helpful, so see if it's really stringy or you're just super picky.
