Extuder Heating problem

t4h3r

hello 

my extruder start cooling down after reaching the desired temp

so , i can't start printing 

thanks

Check the log if it detected a decoupling and simply turned it off for that reason. That you can adjust extruder settings to handle this better. Default values do not work on all extruders. Some swing more, others heat slower. So you might just need to adjust decoupling variables accoring to log message you get when it happens.

no error appears during heating or printing 

and temperature curve looks alright 

but the filament is stuck inside the hot end 

i try to clean it a lot of time but i always got the same problem

What is the highest temp you ever loaded? You may have burnt up the PTFE tube in the barrel of the hot end.

Clogged extruder is not automatic cooling down when target reached, so that problem is gone?

There are many reasons for clogging, so hard to say what it was. Typical it is filament melting to high up blocking extrusion. Sometimes cheap filament has small garbage blocking nozzle. In any case clean up nozzle and check manually if you can push filament through the nozzle. This is also a good test to find the correct temperature as you feel how much force it takes.

i had clean it then try manual feeding 

it works alright with 400 ْ 

is that's alright ?

Repetier

What are you extruding? Most extruders are defect at 400°C. PLA prints at 180-200°C. Our default maximum temperature is 275°C for that reason. Exceeding max. temperature turns extruder off.

Chinese one 

i know the pla prints at 180-200 but it does not melt with me at 200 - even 280

If doesn't melt even at 280 and you know it's not clogged, you probably have misconfigured the temp sensor.
Also, does your PTFE tube go down all the way to the nozzle/heatblock? If so, it's not all metal and you should never exceed 240-245C.
Past that temp, PTFE starts to deform and melt and not only will it clog, it'll also produce some nasty toxic fumes.
Don't trust the Chinese hotends.

P.S. After you try to extrude some filament, pull out the filament, does the end look like a plug? Do you have a fan on your hotend's heatsink?

thanks guys 

i got a new extruder and it works great
