PRINTING TIP(S)
- Store filament in a dry environment.
- Drying filament before printing is required. Actively dry it with a filament dryer at 65°C for 8 hrs.
- An abrasive-resistant nozzle (hardened steel, tungsten carbide, ruby-tipped, etc.) is required.
- Using a non-abrasive-resistant nozzle is possible, but will very quickly degrade the nozzle, leading to frequent replacements and print quality issues.
- For streamlined filament extrusion, composite-reinforced filaments must print out of a nozzle that's, at minimum, 0.4mm in diameter.
- For stronger Z-axis adhesion, increase the infill density. Avoid using an open-frame printer and refrain from setting the cooling fan speed too high, as overcooling can reduce layer bonding.
- For a shinier appearance, use lower printing speeds and slightly higher nozzle temperatures.
- The refill filament variant needs a reusable spool cartridge. See video below for instructions on swapping a refill onto a spool cartridge.
