ouch not good..... so far not had any really issues that we haven't sorted ourselves..... PLA was never an issue when printing ABS was always a pain(on our previous printers)vert wrote: ↑Thu Nov 29, 2018 8:41 pmOnly attempted to use pla wasted 4 spools of it never got a decent print now it don't even turn on waiting on parts from geeetech. there replacing my 4 wasted spools of filament, mainboard, hot-end, power supply and what ever else i need to get this thing to work. if they cant get it sorted by the first of the year i'm returning it and buying some other brand.
so you use the same nozzle that comes with the a10 lol
not had to change anything to get the TPU to work... Only thing we actually did was do a pre heat then whilst hot we fed the filament through till it oozed out.. we found this to be best vway to a void any kinks before hand. but on another note how do you adjust feeder spring????
not had any real issues with TPU/PETG other than was not quite as nice a finish as other filaments.. so a little further tweaking of the settings is required...dekes1 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 30, 2018 6:09 amABS is a non-starter on any open frame printer unless it's very small parts or you use gigantic rafts. More trouble than it's worth. But the A10 prints PLA perfectly. I've used Hatchbox, eSun, Proto-pasta, Solutech, Amazon basics, and Inland PLA and they all print well on various A10s. The only brand I had some issues with on a regular basis is Stronghero.
Wood PLA and CarbonFiber PLA also work pretty well after some tuning. PETG has only been partially successful due to the high temperatures required and the A10's small hot end heatsink.
If you print a temperature tower to tune your retraction and temperature settings, PLA will print beautifully all day

As too wood we just used same settings for pla and dropped temp a little.
we didn't adjust the spring and printed fine........ but how would you adjust spring for future ref?William wrote: ↑Tue Dec 04, 2018 8:38 pmYes.You are correct.ebam2014 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 01, 2018 12:20 amnot had to change anything to get the TPU to work...

If you want to print the filament with the TPU,you need to adjust the strength of the spring.
