Problem printing PETG: Z-Level or something else?

Hello,

I went through the forum but did not find an answer to my current question, regarding prints with PTEG: I adjusted Z-Level, and testprints worked quiet well. I reduced speed for the first layer to 10 and the acceleration to 300, nozzle temp 240 and bed 90 degrees. Prints start well, but after a while it seems like the nozzle is ripping away already printed parts (still in layer one). I did some XYZ calibration an checked bed leveling. The print started with the rectangles on the top right (they seem to be OK, from top and bottom), so I wonder, why afterwards the problem occured.

Can someone give me a hint if this is still a question of Z-Leveling or something else?

 

Thanks, Oliver

I have had this problem. It turns out that sections of the bedplate would not allow the filament to stock to these areas. Since the plate was used quite a bit in the center I just flipped it over to the other side which had not been used and the problem went away. You could also try scrubbing the plate with soap and water.
