Hi to all,

I need a PT100 sensor because the old one failed (one wire detached from the barrel) . I found one on 3djake, quite expensive, but I bought it. My questions to more knowledgeable people:

• can some other sensors be used (same family PT100)?
• where I can find that type of "replacement" sensors?
• there is a way to reinforce the sensors from e3d or other vendors?

Thank you

@Danal
The machine is calibrated, I think. I will do it again today after work. PT 100 don't give any warnings. Thermal tuning saved with a M500.
On both attempts I saw the same behaviour, the first 15 layers are laid down beautifully. Starting with layer 16 where the infill is almost finished the gaps appear. It looks like the filament don't stick anymore on the previous layer.
Why is that?

Hi David,
I was thinking about that and actually tried, but the extruder start skipping like the PLA was not melted properly.
I will try tomorrow with a lower temp.

1. Any advice for doing a better calibration besides the measurement method?
2. "Nimble (biggest crap ever)". Why is that?

Nimble is on the way. I still use the original extruder with Capricorn tube.

Hi to all,

I have a Anycubic linear plus with:

• duet 2 wifi board;
• hayden rods;
• smart effector;
• PT100;
• ultrabase;
• on order a Zesty Nimble V2.
  I fight with this crappy prints for over a month. I really need help with some settings.
  I use Simplfy3D and a have:
• bed temp. 70C;
• hotend temp. 210C;
• nozzle 0.4mm (brass);
• extrusion multiplier - 0.95;
• retraction 5mm;
• speed retraction 3000 mm/min;
  -layer height 0.15mm;
• first layer - height 110 - width 100 - speed 55;
• raft;
• no fan.
  Printer is calibrated (I think, maybe not). No warnings. Z probe working properly.
  Why I have this terrible results? See photos
  
  

@bricor I just measured. The multimeter stays 0. Agree I will close this.

Thanks for your help

@bricor Hi, by 'setup a bridge' I mean to install the jumper for 12V on the effector side.
Actually you are the only one which show me how to check this. Big THANK YOU. I will do that now. Already ordered a new one just in case.
Gabi

@bricor Do you use a 12V power supply? The reason I ask, is I setup the bridge for 12V and that maybe fried the PT100.
Very nice nozzle blower. Where did you get, if you don't mind asking?

Thank you for taking that picutres.
