I have a problem with my new Ender3 V3 KE printer. Printing round models like tube or cylinder models, the extruder goes regular to the left end of the plateau , goes back to the model and restart printing. But the extruder leves extra material whre he restarts on the side. This means that I have a curb/brim in the whole lenght of the tube or cylinder, so not a perfect circle. With my previous printer ender 3 pro I did not have that problem. How can I avoid that or is it a bug of de K3?

Hallo Bonfireman. I didn’t try that. See now in Creality 5 print what it does. I have printed now the test ring and it seems to help. Still my question why goes the extruder every time fro the model to the most left side of the plateau and back to restart printing.
I have changed Zseam to random. printed the test ring and now the ring has everywere on the outside little bubble, there where the extruder restarts printing
So it doesn’t still work correct
That is very interesting, I was getting the exact same behaviour when trying to print curved objects, I also had set Z Seam to random.
What was interesting is that I had previously printed a elven archer figurine that was surprisingly near perfect, I had printed a small curved heart shape that came out really nice.
When I scaled up the heart model to a larger size it did EXACTLY what you have pictured in your ring. From then on every print has sucked despite resetting all print setting back to default.
Hmm, I got to get off to work, but I am very interested in this subject for sure.
It was a a small amount of PETG filement left on the role, I used for testing. I opened now a new vacume pakked role wit PLA.what is printing now. I still wondering why the movement so far left is after ending a ( round ) layer and come back for the next layer. My previous print did not do that. S0 no problem with seam
I did print the start of a cylinder with PLA. I attach the photo, where you can see what happens if the extruder goes left and back for a new layer. Somehow the parameters of filament extrusion do not work correct. I used the default configuration of creality Print 5 only changed seam position in random and activated
Hallo Bonfireman
Thanks for reaction. I found at the end a solution for the moving lift and back and the extream seaming… It was a bug of the printer. I did aa factory reset and after that the printer was printing again as in the beginning, without the problems. He is printing again perfect circles. see picture
