Hey all,
New to the forum, and to 3D printing in general.
My company just acquired a Flashforge Creator Pro and it keeps on giving me the same problem- about 10-20 minutes into a print, the nozzles stop extruding. The nozzles keep on moving, as if it were still printing, but nothing is coming out. I don’t believe it is a blockage issue, for the following reasons:
1. It is a brand new machine
2. The same issue happens with both nozzles
3. When I begin the next print, the nozzle starts extruding right away
The test model that came with the printer(a simple block, roughly a 40 minute print) seems to print just fine, but almost every other print gives me the issue listed above. I have tried using models from the software that came with the printer(Happy 3D and Flashprint), as well as models I found online, and they all give me the same issue. I am using the SD card that came with the printer for all prints.
I have seen no major changes in temperature while printing, and I am using the PLA spools that came with the machine. I have tried different print settings, but the problem always seems to occur at some point.
I have seen other people have the same issue, but never got a solid answer. Some say to clean the nozzles, but again, it is brand new and doesn’t seem to be an issue of blockage.
Any help/information would be appreciated.
Thanks!
