Anyone running PPS? Non fiber filled looking to make the X1C useful. Mainly print in PEEK and PEKK but might need to do some PPS stuff and it can handle it but how well does it print it?
Fyi PPS prints fine. Just get the chamber to a min of 50c.
The X1C can’t natively print in PEEK, PEKK, or PPS, due to the hotend being software locked on reaching higher than 300C. However you can go around this by moving the thermistor into a higher position where it’ll read a lower temperature (this may be an issue if you don’t remember to move it back if printing in other materials). Check out this Reddit Post on how this user was able to accomplish this when printing PEEK. https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/13ylyc9/first_time_printing_peek/
You can also accomplish this by wiring in a resistor to the thermistor. You can check this Reddit Post on how t his user was able to accomplish this when printing PPS-GF https://www.reddit.com/r/BambuLab/comments/18nvela/i_printed_ppsgf_at_330c_in_my_x1c/
Hope this helps.
