Poor XY Adhesion e3d v6

Original Rostock Max V2 hotend (.5mm orifice) vs e3d hotend (.4mm orifice). Recalibrated everything using the same methods from when I was using old hotend, changed the EEPROM using mattercontrol (extruder nozzle set to .4mm). How do I get better XY adhesion (spread?) at the base of my model? Kindof ...

Re: .4mm Nozzle on v6 Extruding at .50mm

Both - I installed an e3d v6 (which has a .4mm nozzle orifice), and then changed my EEPROM extruder nozzle setting to .4mm as well.

.4mm Nozzle on v6 Extruding at .50mm

Is this normal? When I extrude some filament through my brand new v6 hotend and measure it with some mitutoyo calipers, I am getting a reading of .50mm. I set my nozzle size to .4mm and have noticed some problems (layering looks like lincoln logs rather than bonded ABS in the XY plane).

Thoughts?

Re: "Curliness" between layers?

The thing is, this his happening with larger models as well (or at least the layers with fine details on larger models).

Not only that, but the quality on most of the part seems pretty damn good.

Is there a way to tell the program to take more time with layers that take less time to complete?

Great I will lower the temp and see what I get - thanks!

"Curliness" between layers?

Exactly what the subject is - what is the cause of this and how do I fix it?

At first I thought it was over-extrusion, but I calibrated my extrusion and nothing has changed...

Ideas?

Printing ABS at 228 extr and 80 bed, .1 layer height, ambient temp ~19.
