Printing Tips


Drying Recommendations:

  • Drying Temperature:
  • In a blast drying oven: 100°C to 140°C for 8 to 12 hours.

    On an X1 printer's heatbed: 110°C to 120°C for 10 to 12 hours (less effective than a blast drying oven).

  • Important Note: Higher temperatures within the drying range yield better results, but do not exceed 160°C to avoid damaging the spool.
  • Additional Information: For more details, refer to Printing tips for Engineering materials on WIKI.

  • Storage Tips:

  • Storage Condition: To prevent the filament from absorbing moisture, use an airtight storage container with desiccant during printing.
  • For Further Details: Please refer to Printing tips for Engineering materials on WIKI.

  • Annealing Prints:

  • If you need to anneal the prints, please refer to the Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and the WIKI section Work After Printing Finished.

  • Interface Layer:

  • To prevent the filament from damaging the printing surface and to promote model adhesion, apply a thin coat of glue stick for best results.
