PRINT MORE MODELS USING THE COMPUTER

3D models downloaded from websites are usually STL files and cannot be directly recognized by 3D printers. The model needs to be processed in slicing software to generate Gcode files for printing.

Note:

• Slicing software is installed on the computer. Common options: Wiibuilder, Cura.
• Wiibuilder is self-developed with a friendly interface and is recommended.

1. Download more models in the website.
   1. Open a 3D model website, such as (Thingiverse, (Printables)
   2. Select the model you want and download the STL file.
2. Install slicing software.
   1. The installation is stored in the TF card, copy it to the desktop and unzip it.
   2. Double-click the program to install Wiibuilder on the computer.
3. Slice in Slicing software, and get the Gcode file.
   1. Open Wiibuilder.
   2. Be sure to choose” GEMMA2″.
   3. Click “File” to load the STL file or just drag the model into it.
   4. Click and adjust the model.
   5. Set slicing parameters.
   6. Click “Slice”, and get the Gcode file.
      Note: For detailed slicing instructions, please refer to the user manual in the TF card.
4. Print via TF card.
   1. Click “Save File”.
   2. Save the Gcode file to the TF root.
   3. Insert the TF card into the printer. Print the file.
5. Change the filament.
   1. Press the button.
   2. Click “Chance filament”
   3. Follow the instructions on

COMMON OPERATIONS

1. What should I do if the nozzle is clogged?
   The nozzle will be clogged due to the damp filament, so the nozzle should be cleaned regularly. For general clogs, you can clear it using a cleaning needle. If the issue persists, the nozzle may need to be replaced.
   1. Click “Load Filament” and wait for heating to 210°C.
   2. Push a needle through the nozzle.
   3. Press the button
   4. If the blockage has been cleared, the filament will slip through the nozzle.
2. What should I do if my model doesn’t stick?
   A common issue with non-adhesion includes: (1) the first layer warping or detaching from the build plate; (2) the model detaching from the platform during printing; (3) the nozzle printing in mid-air, resulting in a mess of tangled filament.
   You can resolve this using the following steps:
   1. Use the Z-Offset function.
   2. Adjust the nozzle-platform gap.
   3. Change a new sticker.
