Hotend won't go above 177c

dc42

If you dismantled the hot end, check that you have a gap between the top of the heater block and the bottom of the heatsink.

@Phaedrux Error: Heating fault on heater 1, temperature rising much more slowly than the expected 0.4°C/sec.

@tinfish340 said in Hotend won't go above 177c:

It looks like you have P1 and P0 flipped.

Changed that around and ran PID auto tune and that fixed it.
Thanks for your help!!!

So apparently that did not fix the problem. It did go up to 270C with no problems but upon printing there was almost no bonding between layers. The whole print just came apart. I feel like the problem lies within the board. How do you go from a perfectly good printer to junk when absolutely nothing changed as far as code goes? It will struggle to reach 210C now with no errors no matter how long it takes to get there.

FYI, I am using this. Flexion Dual Extruder

Where did you get the thermistor values?

M305 P1 T107000 B10832 C4.891620e-7 R4700 ; Set thermistor + ADC parameters for heater 0 - BED
M305 P0 T99600 B4388 C0 R4700 ; Set thermistor + ADC parameters for heater 1 - HOTEND E3d

If they are wrong, the displayed temp will not match the actual temp.

This printer is a highly modified Black Widow that I have been using for years. Not much Black Widow left but these are the original settings. These settings have worked for a very long time until now. I also came up with the same settings when using the configurator. But I am open to anything that will get this working again.

Phaedrux

Well what kind of thermistors are they?

This is a Duet Wifi with firmware 1.23?

tinfish340

Gulfcoast Robotics 100K NTC 3950 - M3 Stud Screw-in thermistor and
I have also tried, not sure of the brand, NTC 3950 100K Thermistor with the glass end.

Duet WiFi Server Version: 1.23

Phaedrux

Have you tried the values for NTC3950 100k thermistor?

You can also try deriving the values like so: https://www.jameco.com/Jameco/workshop/techtip/temperature-measurement-ntc-thermistors.html
