How do you remove the filament from a 3D printer tube?
How do you get a stuck filament out of a tube?
Stick something long and thin down the tube and push the broken filament out. An easy way to do this is by using a piece of fresh (non-brittle) filament. Alternatively, you can use a long metal rod like a thin welding rod, or my favorite, a guitar string.
Why is filament not coming out of nozzle?
This can happen if foreign debris is trapped inside the nozzle, when hot plastic sits inside the extruder too long, or if the thermal cooling for the extruder is not sufficient and the filament begins to soften outside of the desired melt zone.

How do you clear a blocked Bowden tube?
As a short-term fix, grab a twist drill bit that is on the order of 1.5 mm diameter (assuming a 1.75 mm tube). Using a hand drill, slowly and gently drill out the clogged filament. Obviously you want to try to avoid scarring the teflon lining, so better to use the thinnest drill that will work.15 sept. 2018
How do I remove a stuck 3D printer nozzle?
One of the best ways to remove a stuck nozzle on your 3D printer is to heat the nozzle up to at least 245°C then use a ratchet to undo it. You can also use a wrench and implement a heat block holder for better results. Make sure you are turning the nozzle the correct way (clockwise).
How do you unblock Bowden tube?
1. Tip: Pay attention to the orientation of the first Bowden tube when removed from the printer.
2. Remove the material from your Ultimaker.
3. Remove the clamp clips from both sides of the Bowden tube.
4. Loosen the Bowden tube by pressing the tube coupling collet and pull the Bowden tube out.

How do you tell if your nozzle is clogged?
Manually push the material out of the nozzle, once it has fully heated up. The material should slowly protrude out of the nozzle. If it doesn’t, this means your nozzle is clogged.

What is the best temperature for PLA?
What temperature to print PLA? In general, PLA filament settings have an optimal printing PLA temperature range from about 185C to about 205C. If you’re using 1.75mm as opposed to thicker 2.85mm (or 3.00mm) your optimal print will be closer to the lower end of this PLA filament temperature range.9 nov. 2016

Can you leave filament in a 3D printer?
Yes, you can leave filament in a 3D printer! Most 3D printing enthusiasts tend to leave commodity filaments in the extruder between 3D printing sessions. Leaving filaments in a well-maintained and operated 3D printer may not be harmful to the printer.4 mai 2021
