Layer Separation And Splitting; Nozzle Clogged - Intamsys FUNMAT PRO User Manual

Layer separation and splitting

One major reason for layer separation and splitting
is the layer height being too large. As a rule of thumb,
layer
height should be at most 80% of the nozzle diameter,
i.e., if you are using 0.40 mm nozzle, layer height
should not be greater than 0.32 mm. Another reason
for layer separation and splitting is the print
temperature being too low. Warm plastic always
bonds together much better than cold plastic, so
increasing the nozzle temperature may solve layer
separation and splitting.

Nozzle Clogged

If the material can not come out of the nozzle, one
major cause might be the nozzle being clogged.
This happens when the nozzle temperature is
much higher than the material melting point, or
when the nozzle temperature is much lower than the
material melting point. Or when the nozzle
temperature is much lower than the material melting
point. If the nozzle temperature is much higher, the
filament gets carbonized, leading to nozzle
clogging. If the nozzle temperature is lower, the
filament does not melt enough to be extruded out of
the nozzle. Another cause can be the distance
