Describe your issue:
Hello. I’ve been struggling with this issue for a long time and haven’t been able to resolve it despite trying everything. The extruder gradually cools down after a certain point, and when I try reprinting the same model, it stops at the same layer and almost the exact same position (as shown in the image), even after moving the model to a different spot on the bed.
Sometimes this error appears a few minutes after starting the print, and other times it shows up after several hours (usually, the larger the model, the longer it takes for the error to occur).
I primarily print small items with ABS (which were the error mostly appears), but I recall printing larger models with PETG a few months ago without encountering this issue.
Error message:
Heater extruder not heating at expected rate.
This error occurred today, August 24, 2025.
Hello @jessi3dp !
You limited the power of the extruder to 70% in line 14.

Either you delete that line or set the value higher.
BTW: You limited the power of the bed too.
For extruder, that was intentional. It is a 80w cartridge heater and it smells like burn if it was 100% power. But I’ll try increasing the max power.
For the bed, I just followed the recommended power based on Voron manual.
When it smells, it has to do with temperature, not with power.
Hello @JohnSmith
This would lead to an immediate error and shutdown of the printer.
In this case the issue is the limitation of the heater power to 70%
