Fine tune the platform to be closer to the tank from the printer’s settings. Also, make sure there are no particles swimming around in the resin tank from the previous failed prints. Good luck ---

Good question. Closer isn’t always better. FL has recommended (to me) moving the platform _away_ to improve initial base adherence with Tough… ---

The PDMS on the bottom of the resin tanks wear out. The clear window gets cloudier as this happens. If the bottom is very cloudy, the tank needs to be replaced. If you’re printing twice a day, every day, how many days have you printed since you last replaced your resin tank? ---

You’ve printed 1-2x/day for 3 months on the same resin tank? You should not be surprised it’s not working anymore. It should have stopped working long before now probably. Replace it, you’ve worn it out… ---
