Layer 1 is epic, layers 2-4 suck, then pretty good from 5 onwards. The plastic pushes upward. When the next layer goes down, it doesn\u2019t have enough space, so it happens again. Normally, this clears a few layers, and you get an elephant to foot. But it can keep going depending on you level of over extrusion.<\/p>\n<p>In theory, every layer after the first should be perfect but that&#8217;s not usually how it is in reality. Imperfections in the v rollers frame not dead nuts square, lead screw backlash, etc, etc all make things less than perfect as it travels up the z-axis. That&#8217;s probably why you&#8217;re seeing plowing after a good first layer. Even with ABL, what you have to do sometimes when looking for perfection is to set the z offset for the first layer, then adjust a layer or two up to make things just right. That&#8217;s assuming all the stuff you initially set is set up well and not cause for concern.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/preview.redd.it\/t62mf9u092h81.jpg?width=640&amp;crop=smart&amp;auto=webp&amp;s=cc0f6b9a46e98788774eecad16c21700b80f4c3c\" alt=\"r\/ender3 - Stock Printer, Stock Nozzle\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Can%E2%80%99t_get_corners_to_stay_down\"><\/span><strong>6.

Tighten the Screws<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Creality 3D printers are known to offer good value, but quality control is something that they can lack. It\u2019s up to the user to make sure that all the screws are tight, which may seem like a silly idea, but the difference it could make is surprising. It will not only remove issues like ghosting, but also reduce the number of possible failures, making troubleshooting later on much easier.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"B_Level_the_Bed\"><\/span>B. Level the Bed<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yep, we&#8217;ve still got to deal with knobs. Another very easy yet important step is to correctly level your Ender 3\u2019s bed. It\u2019s one of the most crucial adjustments but also one of the easiest to miss. Adjusting the bed on the Ender 3 is a very simple and quick task that instantly improves the surface quality of your prints (if it\u2019s not already adjusted).<br \/>\nRegardless of what Ender 3 model you have, the steps are the same. Here\u2019s how it\u2019s done:<\/p>\n<p>Home all axes by clicking \u201cHome\u201d.<br \/>\nClick \u201cDisable Steppers\u201d and move the print head to one corner, making sure that there\u2019s adequate distance between the nozzle and the build platform. (The nozzle doesn\u2019t scratch the build platform while moving it.)<br \/>\nUnscrew the knob underneath one corner of your Ender 3 while moving a paperback and forth until you can feel slight friction.<br \/>\nRepeat the previous step with all four corners to ensure that the whole bed is leveled.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"C_Calibrate_the_Extruder\"><\/span>C. Calibrate the Extruder<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Measuring filament to check E-step calibration.<br \/>\nMeasuring filament to check E-step calibration (Source: Let\u2019s Print 3D)<br \/>\nIf you\u2019re having problems with under- or over-extrusion, there\u2019s a possibility that your extruder\u2019s E-steps aren\u2019t calibrated. In order to find the right E-steps, you\u2019ll have to do a little bit of math. Using a simple formula, you can calculate the new E-step with only three inputs.<\/p>\n<p>Before starting, make sure that you\u2019re able to navigate to \u201cControl &gt; Motion\u201d on whichever Ender 3 you have. Some users have noted that this option is missing, perhaps due to the status or version of their firmware.<\/p>\n<p>Measure your filament to 100 mm from a set point on your extruder and mark the filament. Mark an extra 10 mm above and under this 100-mm marking to make measuring easier later on.<br \/>\nHeat up your hot end and extrude 100 mm. (The temperature may need to go above 180 \u00b0C before the extruder will operate.) You can do this by clicking \u201cPrepare &gt; Move axis &gt; Move 1 mm\u201d and then slowly rotating the knob until you arrive at 100 mm.<br \/>\nWait until the printer has finished extruding and measure how far from the 100-mm mark the filament stopped. If the mark has passed the extruder, then your extruder is over-extruding, and if it hasn\u2019t reached the mark, then it\u2019s under-extruding.<br \/>\nUse the marks above and under the 100-mm mark in order to estimate the amount of filament extruded.<br \/>\nNow calculate the correct E-steps by multiplying the current E-steps by 100, then dividing by the actual distance your filament was extruded. The resulting value will be your new, correct E-step value.<br \/>\nClick \u201cControl &gt; Motion\u201d, then scroll down to \u201cE-steps\/mm\u201d and change it to your new E-step value.<br \/>\nFeatured image of Extruder Calibration: 6 Steps to Calibrate Your Extruder<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"D_Tighten_the_Belts\"><\/span>D. Tighten the Belts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The belt tension on the Ender 3s also has a big impact on how your 3D prints turn out. Looser belts can cause severe ghosting, layer shifting, and dimensional accuracy issues.<\/p>\n<p>On the Ender 3 and Pro, you can tighten the belts by unscrewing the brackets that hold the bearings and moving them so that there\u2019s sufficient tension between the stepper motor and the bearing. The V2, on the other hand, has screws built into the end of the X- and Y-axes, which allow you to adjust the tension for those belts on the fly. For the Ender-3 s1\/S1 Pro, just turn the knob clockwise. Either way, the belts shouldn\u2019t be super tight or super loose, just somewhere in between.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"E_Adjust_the_Eccentric_Nuts\"><\/span>E. Adjust the Eccentric Nuts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s also very important to adjust the eccentric nuts on the Ender 3s. These nuts are located under the bed and on the X carriage. They can be tightened by rotating them with the wrench that comes with the printer.<\/p>\n<p>The eccentric nuts should be tight enough so that you can\u2019t rotate or tilt the bed but not so tight that it inhibits motion. The easiest way to do this is by loosening all the nuts and then tightening them again until the bed is firm.<\/p>\n<p>The X carriage should also be adjusted this way. What you\u2019re looking for is a horizontal carriage that doesn\u2019t have too much resistance when moving up and down.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To be updated &#8230;.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey guys , Glad to share some of our experiences with the Creality Ender-3 S1 series 3D Printers.\u00a0 The listed will be updated in a timely manner. 1.
