Re: Trouble upgrading rostock max V2 to V3

so i took the extruder apart and searched and measured. the heater is 4 ohms, all leads are properly connected and there is a signal all the way from the rambo to the heater. i have triple checked the two small smd fuses, and the one big 15amp fuse on the rambo. They are working. Everything should w...

Re: Trouble upgrading rostock max V2 to V3

Is it the same heater cartridge for the old extruder as the new one? I have a spare kit from the old one laying around

Re: Trouble upgrading rostock max V2 to V3

For the record, here is my solution to the connector for the HE280. The HE280 was made with a big fault, no connector with screws or any other way of securing it to the extruder. A moving head will always put stress on the connector over time. I removed the cable shrimp, and put a new one on the con...

Re: Trouble upgrading rostock max V2 to V3

Yes, same thing from the lcd panel and repetier. No heat coming from the heater. Checked it a bunch of times. The red led light turns on both on the rambo board and the he280 when the extruder should be warming up, so there is no bad connections on the cables going to the extruder. Also doublechecke...

Re: Trouble upgrading rostock max V2 to V3

I made a zip tie mount in the plastics below the plug by gently drilling a tiny hole for a zip tie and that seemed to work fine. Still new problems pop up. Now the he280 will not heat up when i choose heat or preheat. After some time i get the def message. I have double checked all the wiring with a...

Re: new he280 hotend issues

I have the same problem and as the connector doesnt have a locking pin, or any other way of properly locking to the extruder this will fail for all users of the he280 at some point.

Lets beg for a solution to cable tie the connector to the extruder somehow!

Re: Trouble upgrading rostock max V2 to V3

Great! Didnt know how i missed that. Thank you. Still havent found a solution for properly connecting the he280 connector and make sure it doesnt fall out during print or calibration. I tried with zip-ties around one of the extruder legs, but that only keeps it half in place. Anybody found a good so...

Re: Trouble upgrading rostock max V2 to V3

I will get back on the other stuff you suggested. The reason for upgrading anything was that the old Extruder got fried when i used octopi a while ago, so i had do order a new one. Then the ATX power supply stopped working, so i had do upgrade that. When extruder number two failed, i had hopes that ...

Problem solved. Tighten drivebelts

Hi, cooling fan works. Not kysan motors. Wantai or something. Took the advice and thightened up the drive belts, noticed that one of the belts had made a small amount of plastic falloff (plastic dust) from top of one of the drive belts. so it was probably not horisontal at top mount. After that ever...

print fail after random amount of time

2014-08-25 13.55.01.jpg
After printing PLA for about 20-30minutes on different prints, sometimes the whole print moves a few mm to the left/front.

Attached a few pictures. Is there something wrong with the carriages?
moves to the left
moves to the left
