Flex filament getting stuck in extruder on load/unload
Hi all,
I've faced an interesting problem last week and thought I would try to poke your thoughts about this. I have bought a Recreus flex filament (85a) which regularly gets stuck in the extruder while loading or unloading. I think the problem comes from the fact the filament is quite flexible and that the loading process tries to push too much filament in the PTFE tube a once and it kind of clogs it.
Once everything is loaded correctly, the print comes out quite well (still need to find better settings for some stringing problems I am working on).
Any idea on how to make this stop? Is there an option to slow down the loading process for flex filament?
