Maintenance Tips
-
Use hardened / silicon carbide nozzles only – carbon fiber filaments are highly abrasive; inspect regularly for wear and replace early to maintain accuracy.
-
Keep filament dry at all times – use the sealed dry boxes to prevent moisture absorption, which can ruin CF prints and clog extruders.
-
Clean dual direct-drive extruders to avoid gear wear and filament grinding—especially with reinforced materials.
-
Run auto bed leveling frequently for consistent first-layer adhesion and precision with fiber-filled filaments.
-
Inspect and clean build plate after each print to ensure strong adhesion and easy removal using the flexible plate.
-
Lubricate motion system & check frame stability to maintain high-precision industrial output.
-
Replace HEPA filter periodically to keep airflow clean and stable inside the enclosed chamber.
-
Monitor filament run-out & sensors to prevent failed prints and material waste.
-
Calibrate dual extruders (IDEX) for alignment—critical for mirror/duplication modes and multi-material accuracy.
-
Update ideaMaker & RaiseCloud software for optimized slicing profiles and performance improvements.
