Loosing my religion / Pt100

So if you ever wondered how your temp graph looks like  live while the pt100 is working its way out of the hot end block:

Ohoh

I was lucky having the temp graph on a 2nd monitor and noticing it.

Solution: Stopping print, putting that thing back in and rethightening the screw.

Further improvement:  Ultimaker is now powered via a  16A Sonoff Power Switch:SonoffPOW

Ultimaker and Sonoff are both bound into Home Assistant.

New Automation: If printing temp drops below 175°C while status is „Printing“ cut the power.

 

ColorFabb CF20 – First prints

First test of  Colorfabb’s CF 20 special filament:

Layer height:  0.2mm   @ 40 mm/s

Nozzle: 260°C  Bed: 72°C

No retraction for now…

Printed some parts for the ultimaker.

Note: Material tries to stick to everything. Destroyed part of the E3D’s silicone cover. Best results with close nozzle to the bed on first layer but really hard to get the parts loose afterwards.
