Blobs on wipe tower
Iam trying to fix a problem iam having with multi material slicing
iam using a MMU2 modified to run on my custom printer using a duet 2 controller and hemera extruder hotend. i have the tool change macro working pretty good. but iam having problems with blobs on the wipe tower.
it seems to me that it creates the blob when it does the ramming move to shape the tip of the filament
the picture i have attached is when i paused the printer just after the very first tool change before it started printing with the new filament. and you can see the blob it have created
then at somepoint during the print the hotend or fan duct will catch on the blob and knocking the wipe tower of the bed
iam using prusament PETG and the default prusament PETG @MMU2 profile
and my single extruder mm setup page looks like this
RE: Blobs on wipe tower
Is that the first layer? it looks a bit rubbish,
possibly too high a negative number...
I would start by sorting that first...

Any updates on this issue? Blobs on the wipe tower have become a nightmare.
RE: Blobs on wipe tower
I've got the blob too!! Trying to get the hang of inlays and got the blob after a filament change. There is no wipe tower in this print; whereas, I am using a single extruder MM. My skirt height is two layers so I am catching the blob on the skirt instead of a tower. This is my minimal workaround for 2 layer 2 color prints like the one in the picture, but I will need more color changes in the future.
Trying to use a wipe tower on multiple changes, the blob kept coming and would build on the previous blob, eventually causing a crash.
How do we kill the BLOB!!!
