NYLON
Nylon is very tough material suitable for mechanical parts.
*Nozzle temperature: 240° C
*Bed temperature: 80° to 90° C
Heatbed: Requires one coat of glue stick. Call Tech Support for additional instruction.
PP
Polypropylene is a flexible and resistant material suitable for printing precise objects requiring flexibility,
firmness and persistence.
*Nozzle temperature: 254° C
*Bed temperature: 95° – 100° C
*Heatbed: The best results are obtained with common scotch tape. Attach the tape directly to the print
surface an clean it after the print is finished.
FLEX
Flex is a very strong and flexible material suitable especially for flexible prototypes, covers, etc.
NOTE
– Before you start printing from Flex, clean all previous material from the nozzle. Preheat the
nozzle and load PLA to remove any other previous material. When loading Flex, loosen the extruder
(idler) screws. Keep in mind that when printing from Flex the automatic filament exchange function may
not work properly.
*Nozzle temperature: 230° C
*Bed temperature: 50° C. You can set the bed temperature up to 65° C depending the size of an object.
(Larger objects will require a higher temperature).
*Heatbed: Some very soft flex materials can bond to the bed too much and will require the use of glue
on the bed as a separator to prevent PEI damage.
