I changed my nozzle cleaning to start even hotter, 230 I think, but it ends wiping at 130. I mostly print PETG on the zero, but also ASA and sometimes nylon or PC. The original nozzle clean at 200 often failed me. I also changed it to move over the scrubber before getting the nozzle hot so that initial heating ooze binds into the scrubber and then pulls off whatever gunk was left on the nozzle from the previous print.
Instead of cold scrubbing which probably does nothing, maybe just skip nozzle cleaning and save the time? I assume you now clean the nozzle by hand before starting a print?
I think this did not occure to me as it way to easy.
I like to watch the routine. I have another printer which made the same and clocking ion the fixed lower temp never caused an issue.
The cold scrubbing is not an issue. I clean my nozzle with a hand brush at 130 c.
130C may work fine for a hand brush, but I don’t think that’s hot enough for the silicone pad, at least with the default motion pattern & speed. Someone’s been experimenting with different cleaning macros, but I forget who and I don’t think anything has been posted yet.
Watching go from 130C, to 200C, back to 130C, then to target temp is certainly frustrating, especially if you’ve already done the nozzle cleaning yourself, and your filament is still oozing. Personally, I’m lazy and rather have the machine do the brushing, but still avoid the oozing, which I still get a little of with PLA. Personally I’ll be trying out 160C as a better compromise temp.
