[Bug] Random "unload filament" during print #155
Comments
I will take a look your gcode file. I can say you that once we experimented a similar issue and we realized that cura was generating corrupt gcodes , I don't know why, but after the PC was restarted this issue doesn't happen anymore. On my first look, the gcode looks fine. I will test it. |
Something fishy with the 1.2.5 release (or my R16 motherboard is going crazy). Here what I did today:
The part printed without problem to the last layer. Some screaming and insults followed during the painful (and stressful) process of removing the printed part stuck between the hotend and the bed without breaking anything. Here the newly failed gcode file (not the same model as the previous one) : I've checked the end of the file for any obvious slicer-related problems but found nothing. Side note: I've upgraded the bootloader of the motherboard at the instructions of the support (ticket 1717) because after the steppers upgrade, I've got the "random motors moves" at boot problem. Eeprom got erased during the process, may this be the source of the problem ? |
Cold restart. New print. Got another glitch. The file: Slave_Body_REV3.txt The first layer: It's definitely sound like a interpreting/planning algorithm going wrong somehow. |
I'm going down the rabbit hole, but I don't see any logic in this misbehavior. Same file as my previous post, on the same SD card. Well ... let's try again. I've let the print continue to see if things will go wrong and at the middle of the print the printer just stop. I think I will downgrade to 1.2.4 just to be sure this is related to the 1.2.5 release, not to the stepper drivers upgrade itself. PS I've found a minor bug in the new bootloader code. I've sent a PR for this in BCN3D-Utilities repo. |
I answered you on the bootloader pull-request subject. I think that the issues that you are reporting won't be fixed by downgrade to 1.2.4 or later FW versions. Issue per issue:
@skywodd Sorry for that. |
Here a zip with all previously failed files, made directly from the SD card used to print them : |
@skywodd thank you. I will report you my results. |
It seems that this bug is still active. I run 1.2.7 Firmware on a Sigma R17 and Cura 1.1.0. After around 45mm print height the printer suddenly retracted the filament and kept printing empty. thanks |
@svengl Can you use zip to share me the gcode? |
I hope you received the file. I sent it by mail. Today we printed the same part but two times on the build plate and the print again failed at around 113mm height. Again the same, the filament was suddenly retracted. |

ok strange
we printed it again with two of those on the plate (other gcode file) and
it happened again. but at a higher level. I even have a video of it. Do you
want those?

The filament is over and the model was almost done. I did not see any
strange behaviour. Also I took a look at the gcode and it's fine for me.
Did this issue happens frequently during others print jobs?
Any way, I will print again the model just in case.

@svengl Can you share the video? |
It happened again today. It suddenly retracted during the print. This time with Cura 2.0.1... But as it seemed the gcode was fine the last time and it was fine here again. I understand that this is hard to fix... |
I reinstalled the firmware 1.2.7 to the printer and printed again wth the same gcode and it is still printing fine. So this sudden retraction is really hard to reproduce. I will keep you updated when it occurs again. |
An interesting observation to this issue: |
Another sudden retraction yesterday. Any ideas? |
@svengl For me, the "bug" was resolved by replacing the SD card reader of the printer (big thank to the support team by the way). No more random things after that. |
Ah Ok. The support had written me that also. I then talked to our vendor and sent him this info. He however also couldn't see that the card reader is an issue. But if this really helped you, then we will try that for sure. Thank you for the comment! Sven |
Yes, axis moves and filament retract. Disclaimer: I've a R16 with upgrades. I don't known if the R17 hardware was revised to fix the following problem(s) after reporting it to the support team. I hope it's fixed, but it may not. I've tested and concluded that my R16 was not tolerant to radio interference because of the lack of RF shielding on the cables (motors, screen and especially the SD card reader). Any pickup RF will move the motors on my printer when the outputs are in high-impedance (like during programming or just after powering up for example). Maybe a strong RF interference can also mess up with the (really) fast signals of the SD card reader and make the motherboard go crazy. PS I hope the technical report I've sent to the support team a year ago reached the R&D team and didn't get lost (or worst, ignored) ... |
As reported in issue #193 our printer received new stepper driver with a correctly adjusted voltage. |
Hi,
After upgrading to v01-1.2.5, I've experimented a very strange bug with my Sigma R16.
Sometime, during a print, the "unload filament" procedure seem to start for no reason.
The extruder stop and the filament run backward into the spool forever.
When this happen, I can only press "stop" on the screen to unfreeze the firmware.
I'm using BCN3D-Cura 0.15-beta2, with the fans and silent steppers upgrades installed.
PS Here the gcode file of failed print, if this can be useful : Master_Body_REV2.txt
The print failed at 9 minutes left ... grrrrrrr!
