Description

Update: 1513 Hours: Haven't touched it since 1000… I do see buildup from time to time but the nozzle just knocks it off into the bin.

Update:

Just crossed 1000 hours, so ya, I guess it works and doesn't need any intervention except maybe once per 400 hours or something… GG

Update:

At around 550 hours I had one of the ptfe tubes come off. Put it back on and added a little dab of super glue on the end of each. At 790 hours and still going, zero interaction with it otherwise.

Currently on about 400 hours with this now and haven't touched it. The problem with the stock is that it has a 90 degree angle wipe, but no side constrictions. So when it bends slightly to one side, it no longer has a flush 90 degree wipe.

I thought about a brush but it doesn't always stop the wisps. Along with a 90 degree wipe on anything, if it doesn't have side constraints, it's the same as the stock. This mimics a pinch and wipe effect which is far superior to anything other than Bambu's excellently forceful wipe on the back of the plate.

I printed polycarbonate with .4 nozzle, 100% infill, had to print it at about 10-15 mm/s. and add "G29.1 Z-0.01" to the filament startup script. 40 threshold angle. Printed like the pic in slicer.

Add ptfe to the little pillars post-print, use your smaller allen wrench that came with printer to push out the hole area. Then just replace the PTFE on the stock wiper with this, using same screw. Be careful when you screw it in, hold it steady with pliers and hold the black wiper end directly to the side of this piece. Otherwise you can strip the black spring holder hole.

To Bambu Labs, I would be willing to license this design out to you for packing with the printer, it would be an honor and I would ask for only remarks. (and maybe .001% of every sale, then I can buy more coffee!)

This is the way... hands down the best wiper out there. I changed my layer gcode so that I get 3 wipes every layer. I use that when printing things like PETG-CF. this little super has taken more abuse than I ever thought possible and it's still going strong. Amazing! This is the best modification I have made to the whole printer and it took like 5 minutes...

Thanks for the kind words :) Very happy to hear you like it, I banged my head against the proverbial wall for a few days on that one lol

@joelnobreneves

what line of code do i need to input to get that inbetween layer wipes you mentioned?

@bschmidt118c

What Code did you use to add a nozzle wipe to each layer and where did you implement it?

Easy to install. I used Bambu Lab Blue PETG Basic and clear PTFE tubing with this downloaded profile and it printed fine. About to print with it and will update this review with how it goes.

@kungpaoshizi

Keep in mind that alike material or higher temp material than the apparatus (not sure how often you print with petg/higher temp material) will want to kinda stick to the top area slightly. It can take quite a bit of buildup though, I usually see most falls off with more agitation of the toolhead. So I would suggest printing with polycarbonate if you can get some, it really will make a difference on that aspect. Excellent to hear btw! Please do let me know if you have any suggestions or such! Ty!

something went wrong on bambulabs end as i did not print this yet. five stars for idea and the belief of function. will update as soon as pc or pa12/pa15 gets stocked

Mentioned to another: It's pretty boring :) Going on 800 hours now though and had to pick out filament maybe 5 times and glue on the ptfe tubing. Otherwise it's a set it and forget it situation. The V works like when you grab oozing filament with tweezers and pull it off of the nozzle with a tight scrape against the nozzle to get a flush wipe.

This needs an installed photo and maybe video showing how it works and why it’s better.

@kungpaoshizi

Thanks! Will do!

@kungpaoshizi

The stock nozzle wiper, or any other that's flat, will bend over time and lose it's square 90 degree wipe, thus becoming useless and needs to be replaced. This has been created with an angle to compensate and with a V shaped pattern to alleviate any twisting of the spring mechanism alongside "grabbing" any longer pieces that might be dragged over the top. It was made with PETG in mind as the flat bar PTFE approach allowed a lot of PETG wisps to drag over the wiper and be introduced onto the print area. https://youtube.com/shorts/AqcyGq7_sfE?feature=share https://youtu.be/kJl28JbT6TI

Wow, you deserve an award for this design! I have tried soooooo many others and this is the only one that works with PETG-CF that I have tried. Does such a great job! Thank you so much!

@kungpaoshizi

No problemo :) I thought of tweezers. I originally had something in mind with a mechanical clamping action based on the movement of the toolhead interacting with it, but nothing has come to mind yet that would work "better" long-term.

@kungpaoshizi

Thank you for the kind words as well, you're welcome :)

Printing PC one can never have too little of a brim! :D
