Any news about INDX hardened nozzles?

I hate to be that guy, but nothing happened since we all found out.

Has Bondtech or Prusa release an official statement, which is not a screenshot in a random hidden place?

Question/Need help 1.5mm nozzle

Thumbnail

26 Upvotes

Today I dug through the 3d printing parts box and realized that I had like 5 v6 0.4mm nozzle's, so I decided to turn one of them into a 1.5mm by using a precision drill.

This print was made with 1.4mm layer height and 50mm/s (it was about 300gr and took just under 4 hours to print) on the generic prusa profile with minimal editing, ngl I need some help because I have no idea what I need to optimise to get the speed/the quality to be better.

One of the things that I found most fascinating was how fast the plastic was moving, taking into consideration the fact that it was almost printing as the same diameter as the spool itself.

I'm open to anyone willing to help (:

Been having issues with the first layer just not being squished down enough at all . Just about everything comes off the plate with every print . It’s really getting kind of annoying at this point . Did the new firmware update and updated the profiles in Prusaslicer to match ….. needless to say it didn’t work

Question/Need help Tpu gets stuck on Nextruder

Thumbnail

15 Upvotes

Hey everybody, I had some issues with tpu ultrafuse 85a. Dried for 4 hours, Sunlu dryer S1 plus in max temp. Said it's only 18% humidity.

During the print(22h) i stopped heating because I thought it was air tight enough. The problem appeared around hour 18.

I also had problems with adhesion and warping, but I guess the print wasn't thick enough and I should use a brim next time.

Printed on a satin sheet c1L.

So now the question is, how did the filament get stuck there? The filament string I pulled out there was about 10cm long, guess it got longer because I pulled it pretty hard.

Was the idler not tight enough for tpu?

I also have problems with loading the tpu because the filament sensor does not recognize tpu, even though I push it from the top without the tube. Had to deactivate the printhead sensor and it loads the filament

INDX Cold Pull

When can we expect an automated cold pull procedure in the control section?
Core One and XL both have them and I’ve already did a manual cold pull in the INDX.

Constant clogs with new Prusament Galaxy Black on INDX machine

13 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I’m experiencing a bit of a weird problem. Over the last five years of 3D printing, including at least three years with CHF nozzles, I have never experienced a clog in any of my nozzles.

Now, after switching to an INDX machine and loading a brand-new, sealed box of Prusament Galaxy Black, it has become almost impossible to print. The nozzle clogs after just a few minutes. I am not able to use this kind of filament in my printer anymore.

I know that Galaxy Black has a bit of a tendency to clog CHF nozzles, but why is it happening now with this new spool, when it never happened before with non-Bondtech nozzles? Any ideas or suggestions? I am using the Prusament PLA profile, of course.

Thanks a lot!

Unboxing Time! People should start buying Prusa if you want to have a valid competitor against Chinese brands. Otherwise Prusa is forced to keep prices way higher and things wont‘t change.

Question/Need help 4 spool dryer recommendation

9 Upvotes

Hi everyone, with the INDX 1st batch inching in closer and closer, I realized that I need to step up my drying game. I would appreciate your 4 spool dryer recommendations and why this model.

I saw that Sovol, Creality and Sunlu all have a dryer, if anyone knows who’s the better of them.

Thanks for the help!

Is Prusament Pristine White safe for soft nozzles?

7 Upvotes

I print a lot of white stuff for a few applications, but the cheapy brand ones I use are coloured with Titanium Dioxide and chewed up a few brass nozzles before I went into the whole white pigment rabbit hole and I just printed on a hardened nozzle always.

Anyways, I have an indx now and only one printer, so yeah, anyone know how Prusa pigments their white filament? I know they make their woodfills in a way that's non-abrasive so hopefully this is safe too.

EDIT: I too am annoyed and disappointed with nozzlegate, but there are enough threads about that, I have an indx running on my core one, it is what it is, and i need to print some white filament, just want to know if there's a confirmed safe option for softer nozzles.

Prusa App Optimized for INDX?

5 Upvotes

Will the Prusa mobile app have an update that allows better communication with INDX. I do alot of repeat printing so I usually just print from my history on the app, but there is currently no way to select which toolhead the print uses when i go to print from my history. Will that ever be an option?

With all the upgraders, I’m wondering if someone is willing to sell and ship their not needed top lid to Greater Boston. Mine has a crack that I worry will get larger over time.

EDIT: I found the plexi set from Prusa but I only need that one panel.

Print of the Month SETI Game Organizer in two-tone

Post image
4 Upvotes

SETI is an awesome game, but a mess to clean-up and store after a session. And starting it takes ages due to the amount of pieces you have to set-up.
Luckily I found this amazing organizer from "Ohm" (https://makerworld.com/en/models/903042-seti-boardgame-insert-organizer#profileId-862521). Since I only have my trusty old MK3s I resorted to using only two colors, including some saved-up remains of one of my favorite, but not available anymore, colors "Prusa Pearl Red" (could you maybe bring that back)?
A lot of manual color swaps later, and the game is now a breeze to set-up and store!

Question/Need help Prusa Slicer, how to keep parts from dropping to the bed?

4 Upvotes

I think I have seen this mentioned somewhere before, but can't remember where or what the actual "fix" was.

Basically I'm trying to figure out what I need to change so parts stop dropping to the bed by default if I move things up and off the bed. I'm wanting to be able to reassemble some already cut parts and make them one complete thing again, and I think I have only seen mention of changing something per part, but I am wanting to change it as a more "permanent" or slicer wide thing or whatever, as some of the models have a bunch of parts.

I'm used to Simplify3d where I can move parts anywhere within the print/screen space and they will stay where I put them.

Question/Need help 0.25MM NOZZLE keeps clogging

1 Upvotes

ive done like 10 cold pulls, let it run at 290c for a while to drip any plastic out, cleaned it with the little needle tools and yet it still continues to clog after 5-10 minutes of printing.

Its the v6 nozzle with the adapter, im printing normal pla white from sunlu on an open mk4s and i cant find the issue, looking at old prusa forums there seems to be a pattern with prusa and 0.25mm nozzles, so i aint got a clue what else to try.

im trying to print some pre supported warhammer mini figs that i passed through resin 2 fdm in order to make them printable, but the issue isnt the model since the nozzle has had this problem in the past. Im using the standard 1.2mm profile for structural.

if that wasnt enough the livechat is bugged for me for some reason so icant contact them, i tried two computers and it just says '0 minutes' on the timer and never connects me.

INDX Founder Edition Kit – Gauging interest for a potential collective / group action

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Like many of you here, I’ve been following (and dealing with) the ongoing situation regarding the INDX Founder Edition Kit.

Given the lack of resolution and clear outcomes so far, I am currently exploring options for a collective consumer action (such as European representative actions / group claims handled through accredited consumer protection organizations).

Why this post? Before reaching out to consumer protection bodies or legal organizations—which require proving a collective prejudice—I want to simply gauge how many of us are in the same situation and would be interested in standing together.

What this IS:

  • A preliminary headcount to see if we have a critical mass of affected backers/buyers.
  • An initial step to explore structured, formal legal or consumer rights avenues together.

What this IS NOT:

  • No money required: This is purely an exploratory effort.
  • No personal data collected: You do not need to share sensitive personal information right now.

How to express interest: If you own or backed an INDX Founder Edition Kit and would be interested in being part of a group inquiry/claim:

  1. Drop a quick comment below (or send me a DM if you prefer to remain private).
  2. Upvote for visibility so other affected owners can see this thread.

Depending on the response and the number of people interested, I will compile an update and share the potential next steps openly with the community.

Thanks for your time, and let's keep the discussion constructive in the comments!
