I’m pretty new to 3d printing as I just got an Ender 3 Max Neo for Christmas. I’ve been playing around with various filaments from Inland and Creality, but I’m having odd results with the Creality ones.
When using the Creality filaments, my prints get random holes, or outright fail, because of gaps when it’s extruding. The roll is not tangled and my extruder doesn’t appear to be slipping. I’ve tried adjusting speed, temperatures, flow, z offset, etc, but nothing is fixing the random gaps. The Inland filaments are working great and are very consistent. Any help is appreciated.
I have no experience with that filament, but some of them are crap. For each filament you should find the best temp and flow. You sad you tried diferent settings, but have you done temp/flow/retraction tower calibration? You can try disabling retractions for testing, again some filaments are bad and sometimes retractions are just too frequent (compare by printing exact same model). As others said it can also be wet filament. Some filaments require diferent tension on extruder arm, but you can tell by looking at the teeth marks. At the end you want filament and settings that work best for you, I love polymaker
