When I switched from PLA to ABS heating up the print bed took forever.
I got sick of waiting so I insulated the underside of the print bed. Now the bed heats up faster (I guess, don't know how long it took before).
As a precocioun I also insulated the y-axis carriage to minimize heat transfer from the bed to the bearings.

BeantwoordenVerwijderenMake sure you have your 150watt adapter at 22volt! Because it shouldn't be a problem to heat it up to 130 degrees. And look closely to the manual to make sure you put the right one at 22V(the top connector) otherwise you may damage your gen6 board (12volts)

BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe bed is loosing to much heat because of the large surface area and maybe because I also have a glass plate on top of it.
My bed is heated with some sort of sticker I don't know how yours is heated, does it still have the resistors?
The glass plate takes a lot of heat away +-10 degrees. Did some tests with a Infrared Thermometer put the heater to 130: with glass110-120 without glass 130. So if I print Abs I prefer without the glass just on kapton tape. I got a orca 042, think the same as yours? http://mendel-parts.com/en/parts/silicon-heated-mat.html
