Printing Tips
- Ensure proper ventilation to reduce exposure to odors.
- Drying filament ensures consistent print quality. Find filament dryers here.
- In a blast drying oven: 80°C for 8 hrs.
- On an X1 printer's heatbed: 90°C to 100°C for 12 hrs.
- With enhanced stiffness from carbon fiber, ASA-CF offers excellent stability, but it is naturally more brittle than normal ASA, so handle with care for best results.
- To ensure strong bed adhesion for ASA filaments, practice the following: Use enclosure printers and ensure the build plate is properly glued before printing, and consider setting a lower printing speed and higher heatbed temperature.
- Printing with a hardened steel nozzle is recommended to ensure long-term nozzle durability and consistent extrusion quality due to the abrasive nature of carbon fiber.
