This addresses the issue of the nozzle on the A1 mini not cleaning properly, resulting in waste material falling onto the print bed and affecting print quality.
Using the spare silicone cleaning blocks in the A1 mini accessory box, cut out two rows of squares and adhere them to the middle recess. Attach double-sided tape to the back of the nozzle wiper and clip the latch onto the small iron plate of the cleaning block. Secure with adhesive. Ensure the silicone blocks align with the small recesses on the iron plate, as shown in the image.
Note: Do not use dynamic flow calibration, as this can lead to nozzle clogging.
Note that the A1 mini and A1 silicone cleaning blocks are different in size, and this solution is not applicable to the A1.

Version 2 improvements have shortened the size, minimizing the risk of this component colliding with the heat bed and falling off. Only two rows of squares from the spare cleaning block need to be cut and adhered. We continue to seek GCode solutions.

It has been observed that when scanning the XY axis resonance frequency before starting a print and before cleaning the nozzle, the nozzle moves to the far left of the print bed, causing this nozzle wiper to collide with the plate and potentially fall off. We need the help of an expert with Gcode modification capabilities. (Version 1 requires five rows of squares from the spare cleaning block to be cut off)
