Re: A10M Cleaning the Heater Block is a NIGHTMARE

After 3 heads and dozens of times taking the hotend off to clean it or pulling the tubing to try and get the darn thing to work, it said hello to my little trash truck friend. Cyclops heads as I find out are not the way to print multi filament. The way that I do it now is just create models that are...

Re: I ruined my A10M.

The hot end tended to clog if you blew on it to hard. It would clog every other print. I had to clean it so many times that the screws became stripped. I ordered another hot end and installed it. It worked beautifully for around twelve prints and then I was printing a coaster and the thing just smok...

Re: Where is my Post

I posted on a piece of junk A10M that is going to the scrap heap this weekend. The post seems to have disappeared. Imagine that!

I ruined my A10M.

I replaced the hotend also and it printed a dozen or so prints perfectly until yesterday. While printing a new coaster design, it let out a whimper and a puff of smoke and stopped mid print. I am going to try to get Geeetch to make it right with a new board since this junk is only two months old. I ...

Re: A10M Color leakage in nozzle?

I use 35mm as the prime tower size in an attempt to get the filament to purge completely. I also have set the minimum purge length quite a bit higher than Cura 4.1 has by default. this seems to help me.

Re: A10M FW updates

I was told by one of the support reps at Geeetech that they are currently working on an update and would let people know when it was finished. That is very open ended, but that was as far as they were willing to go two weeks ago!

Re: A10m Pausing at Purge tower.

I just wanted to post a few picks of this beast now that I have tamed her. They were all printed on the Geeetech A10M.

Re: A10m Pausing at Purge tower.

I am not really sure just what you are referring to could you post a picture. I believe on the prime tower for each extruder you can specify the extruder #. You might try to see if both extruders use the same #. I remember that my prime tower brim used to be a different color than the prime tower ba...

Re: Silence the LOUD printer!

I have had to replace every hot end cooling fan on The Geeetech A10M, the Creality Ender 3 and the Anycubic Kossel +. Not due to noise issues, but due to bearing failures. Seems to be the nature of the beast with these Chinese fans. I have replace all with better fans from Amazon and they are now qu...

Re: A10m Pausing at Purge tower.

One last thing that I forgot to add. The original hot end kept clogging every other print so I drilled the screens. Do this at your own risk. There is a post to show how it is done under Blobbing. :lol:
