Just printed this plant pot and the quality is absolutely trash. It’s a large print (150mmx150mmx150mm) but printed using my normal settings. It’s solid wall - 4-5 perimeters thick. Sliced in Prusaslicer 2.6.1 and printed on an Ankermake M5. Any ideas?
Thanks!
I agree this is probably mechanical issue (Z leadscrew or wheels/rails). How other prints look like? Maybe print some other model and see if issue still persist, just to exclude gcode
What’s the infill pattern?
No infill, solid walls
I’ve seen bad wheels, misaligned wheels, or failing wheel bearings create these kinds of cyclic patterns as the angle of the wheel where the problem occurs introduces inaccuracy that adds up over time.
I don’t know how helpful I can be from a diagnostics perspective because I’m not familiar with this specific printer, but I would suggest checking that your wheels are secure and true and ensure that your rails are unobstructed.
Are you sure it’s not the model?
Yep - I made the model.
I’m going to dig through the slicer file and see if there’s anything wonky with the number of perimeters.
