Re: Heated Bed slow heating wont go past 68 degrees

So I spent all day yesterday doing yet another minor tear down of the printer, cleaned up and re-flowed my pads again, flashed my EEPROM, and re-tested all of my wiring yesterday and all of my concurrent tests I'm getting a solid 12v and "improved" heating times. I even started doing tests on Matter ...

Re: Heated Bed slow heating wont go past 68 degrees

Update: Checked the wiring, reflowed the connections just to be extra sure. Still getting 11.6-12v to the board, stopped using Matter Control, still getting a temp drop of about 12 degrees when the fans are on for multiple layers near the bed, however it's not as severe as before so it's not ...

Sorry for sounding so new, but I am. What is the "hot end plug"? I have the SAME issues here and cannot figure it out and have tried numerous times, unsuccessfully to contact support. :evil:

Re: Heated Bed slow heating wont go past 68 degrees

So, insulated the bed. It's warming up slightly faster. Like 5 minutes faster to get to 60-70 instead, but still 25-30 mins. Ambient temp in our machine shop is around 25-30 C. The new issue I'm having is that on certain prints, once the hot end fans kick on they cool the bed down by a good 20-30 ...

Re: Heated Bed slow heating wont go past 68 degrees

I've seen a few other threads showing their insulation, seems to be the non-standard standard practice for setting these up, I will probably add in some forum links to the build manual for people building theirs since it's definitely a lot easier to insulate the bed before running wires. As for my ...

Re: Heated Bed slow heating wont go past 68 degrees

I went back through the Firmware and the PID Drive Max is already set to 255. I'll try to look into adding additional insulation underneath. Even when covering the glass my temp seems to max out at 91. So I guess I'll just keep trying things and update this as I find stuff out, I'm sure I can't be ...

Heated Bed slow heating wont go past 68 degrees

Built a v3, everything on it has been working perfectly except for the heated bed. I've given it upwards of 35-40 minutes and it still wont go past 66-68 degrees. Hot end heats up in less than 2-3 minutes so I'm not sure what to be testing for the bed. I've seen a lot of discussion in regards to ...
