noz.temp changing

Post by bauf »

Hey, so when i'm doing a print at i.e. 240°c, 15-30min into the print,the nozzle temp according to the display goes down waaay much.. today it went down to 198°c from 240°c.
I have the Max V2, all stock parts. The print started out fine.. but when i went under 200°c,it started failing badly.. so how do i fix this?

*facepalm* Forgot about the fans.. so used to using only PLA, so when trying out ABS, i forgot about them. I guess they're the reason of the temperature drop.

And with ABS, the layer fan is not needed as much as it is for pla.

And if you haven't done so, wrap your hotend with Kapton tape,,, it helps a lot.
