K1 Max

check the bed mesh, it’s probably not level and the probe can only compensate so much. you can print bed shims that will even it out to fix this, i did it on mine and the bed variance went from 1mm to .3mm with much cleaner first layers https://www.printables.com/model/681528-bed-shims-fits-creality

I have collectively 3000 hours on my 3 K2 Plus printers. I print everything from PLA to Nylon. The bed is the Achilles’ heel on these printers. I have one that has a 0.25 variance from the factory, the other 2 were bad, one was 1.2 and the other was I’ve 0.9. I tried a lot of things but finally I us

My K1Max drilled a square in my plate at the start of a gridfiinty bin print. Luckily I stopped it doing what happened to yours. Also under warranty. Last I heard from Creality was they will replace the "strain gauge and adjustment plate". Not the build plate though as it is older than 3 months and

I got it about a month ago. I upgraded my K1 Max, upgrade went text book. Firmware upgraded correctly. I've re-installed the helper script (I'm a linux admin, so I could work around the issues it was having). I've got moonraker/mail sail installed but currently using creality print because it talks

That doesn’t look bad at all, but these beds warp differently depending on the temperature. Because of this, the factory bed leveling doesn’t work properly. If you hven’t already, root the printer and you can level the bed at the temperatures you are actually printing, use kamp and you shouldn’t hav

You cant compare these two, they are in vastly different categories and the k1 is very manual in comparison. U see people here spending a week leveling the bed. Note that I am of the new millennium, If I can recommend a machine that cooks for you and feeds you I will do so, I dont see the point in y

OP - Astronomer has sent you on the right path. I have a K1Max (which came with the hardened 300C nozzle) and I used the built in PA6-CF setting in Creality Print and it printed flawlessly and I had the top glass off. My bed temp was 50c and Nozzle temp 290C and I dried the Filament at 65C overnight

This happened to me too. I started a print, then canceled the print before it finished calibrating. Made a minor change and sent the new job to print and it damaged my plate exactly as in OP's photo. Thought it was a random failure and stopped using the printer until I got a replacement plate. Happe

Nozzles digging to bed and plates -> sensors not working? I've had this happen back in the day too, with my k1max, i had tinkered with the bed, trying to level it, and those "mods" and adjustments did something to those pressure sensors and those gave out false reading/no reading at all. Quick and d

Since he hasn't replied, allow me. I have a K1 max. It's a pile of junk. If you need convincing, google creality first layer problems. The stock bed is pretty much trash. My lead screws are already worn with less than 100 hours. Ringing. VFAs. The works. I spend more time fixing it than using it.
