Yesterday I received my Bambu Lab P1S combo. First 2 simple Bitcoin cookie cutters prints went well. The lego base plate was my third print and I used the included Bambu PLA Tough to print the lego base plate. I didn't changed any setting except using this PLA and using the Bambu Lab P1S 0.4 nozzle.
I had an issue. A part of the plate was warped, causing the head to come loose. Because I am a newbie I don't know if this is a malfunction of the printer, a setting I had to change before printing or something related to the model.
Cam recording of the print is at https://youtu.be/95UNOTePyR8
Any help is appreciated. Thanks :-)
This can happen when the adhesion to the plate is not perfect.
When a plate is quite worn it may be useful to use hairspray. In your case though, if the plate is new, it's probably just dirty, so you should clean it with isopropyl alcohol.
Do you have selected the right plate from the slicer?
Thank you Deran for this useful information. I wasn't aware of that I can change the plate type in the slicer. Possibly it was the wrong plate. Currently while printing something else I see its currently selected the 'Cool Plate / PLA Plate' in the Slicer. I just found out by default the P1S is delivered with a Bambu Textured PEI Plate.
Soon when I will try again I will clean it and select the Bambu Textured PEI Plate from the slicer.
Perfect, it could be your problem... The pei plate and the cool plate work at different temperature, and this give you some problem to stick the piece on the plate 😉
Printed on P1S using Generic settings and PLA.
This is a great print. I checked it and it is "Lego" compatible. The fit is super tight requiring a decent amount of pressure, so maybe not for small children.
I would also let the plate cool so it naturally releases. Otherwise you can put a bend in it so it may warp.
I printed with ABS and printed some small sections first to dial it in. I had to mess with the X-Y contours a little bit and of course the full-scale print peeled up at the edges but the design was great.
