NYLON
One of the stongest material you can find for 3D printing. It can be used for mechanical parts
3D Printing suggested temperature : 245°-255°C
Bed temperature: 90-100°C
Special Filaments:
Combining PLA or ABS with other additives can be possible and will result in different properties.
Charging the polymers with materials like Carbon fibers, wood dust, metallic powder can make stronger materials or with
a nice finishing.
Printing settings depends on the polymer used. Refer to the spool manufacturer or , in case of FABtotum Filaments , the
Spool label to get the suggested printing settings.
Flexible Filaments
Flexible filaments can be printed only with the Printing Head Pro
Due to the bowden extruder setup it’s -in fact – usually difficult to print flexible filaments like rubber or TPU with the
Hybrid Head or the Printing Head V2.
Doing so will result in filament clogging the extruder and subsequent need to clean it.
