PROBLEM
Filament is not extruding or
sticking to the build plate
properly.
Dremel 3D45 froze before my
object started.
Support material does not
break away during cleaning and
results in decreased quality of
the final object.
Spaghetti mess at end of build.
Part only built halfway.
No filament coming out.
Extruder will not home.
Stringy or fraying plastic layers
on steep overhangs.
3D45 will not find my Wi-Fi
network.
Troubleshooting
CAUSE
This can be caused by the build
platform not being leveled with
the extruder head.
Dremel 3D45 may have
received conflicting commands.
Orientation of the part is not
optimized.
A layer of your object did not
stick properly, model was saved
with minimal surface area
contacting the build platform,
or object was built floating
above the build platform with
no support selected.
Z-Gap offset may not be correct
and the extruder tip is not
properly spaced with the build
plate.
Filament ran out.
Filament clogged during build.
Clogged extruder.
Filament not properly loaded.
Object overhangs are too far
apart or too steep (<45 degree
angle).
Printer too far from wireless
router.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Leveling the build platform will align
the extruder head and ensure a better
object quality. Cancel your object,
clear build platform, level the build
platform, and restart the object.
Turn power switch off, wait 30
seconds, and turn power switch on.
Reorient the position of the 3D file in
Print Studio to minimize the support
material or place the support material
on a non-critical surface.
Use the preview feature in Print
Studio to see the first layer height and
position. Build with supports when
necessary.
Contact customer service on how to
calibrate the Z-Gap Offset.
Replace filament and resume build.
See "No filament coming out".
Contact customer service.
Try running a filament change again
to ensure the extruder gears have
properly caught the filament.
Contact customer service.
Build with supports.
Reposition 3D45 to be closer to your
router.
