Prints Stick Too Well! Wont Release
CO2
Posts: 9Member
Hi all, first post and a fairly new 3D user but loving it!
I have some friends with printers and they are stumped on this subject.
I am doing lots of prints both big and small on the diamond bed and normally adhesion is an issue where it won't stick. My problem is actually the opposite.
When I do a print, it is staying stuck so well that I can't get it off the bed. I have tried all different types of scrapers and wedges, I have tried floss, I have tried heating it up and cooling it down in the fridge. The only thing that seems to work is using a razor blade but most times it ends up ruining the underside of the part and I have to toss it because it separates the layers.
Does anyone have any advice on how to make the print release easier? Would lowering the bed temp help? Do I need something else on there?
Any and all help would be appreciated.
