Steps to print the perfect first layer for a 3D model

As the foundation for an entire 3D print, the first layer plays an important role. Win professional 3D printer users know the difficulty of laying the perfect first layer. One of the common causes for a poor cross-layer is the path not sticking to the printing bed. Maintaining the surface can make a ton of difference between spaghetti-like mesh and a perfect print. The following section of this article discusses some effective ways to ensure that the print sticks to the bed for the perfect first layer every time.

Leveling the bed

An uneven print bed is responsible for a print that does not stick to the surface. This issue becomes apparent when the break printing bed also known as the printing surface is unable to maintain a consistent distance from the nozzle across the bed. If the printer tube build platform is not flat and level the nozzle will come too close at certain places and too far away in others. Even when the build platform is perfectly level, it must not be set too far away or too close to the nozzle. Every printer has a specific way of accomplishing bad leveling.

Slowing down the speed of the first layer

Getting a print to stick perfectly on the bed can be difficult if the tool head starts moving fast. Slowing down the print head is necessary to allow extruded plastic born together with the print bed.

Checking the temperature

If the first layer sticks and but the following layers separate from the print bed temperature settings can be the reason. In several cases, it is observed that the two head extrudes filament at the optimal temperature but the platform is not sufficiently warm. Technicians need to check the temperature control of the printing machine to improve adhesion. If you are looking to choose best 3d printers then more information here printertube.gumroad.com.
