Geeetech a30 Not extruding filament

Feeder is Not pushing the filament

Hi guys. I have a little problem with my 3d printer. When i‘m loading or unloading new fillament the printer pushes it fine through the tube. But when i start a print the filament doesn‘t move anymore. The Motor with the gear is rotating but the feeder wheel is standing still. Any suggestions? Ps the Printer is a Geeetech A30Tweakbox Appvalley https://vlc.onl

Hello, it may be that the feeding kit is too loose. You can adjust the pressure of the lower spring so that it can engage the filament exactly.

Nope, same filament, same Cura settings, same ambient conditions and the filament WILL NOT adhere to the bed now! It just curls around the extruder nozzle.

Hello, maybe the hot bed is not leveled correctly?
You can slow down or change the printing area to see if the consumables stick to the hot bed.
