H2C Vortek and TPU

Ciao All,

I’m considering the idea to buy a H2C with Vortek system. I would like to use it also for printing TPU togethwe other materials (i.e. ABS/PETG/PLA).

Has any one tested?
Let me know, thanks in advance
Ciao

According to Bambulab, the following is supported:

Left Hotend: Currently does not support printing TPU 85A due to a high risk of nozzle clogging; future support for TPU 95A HF/90A is planned.

Right Hotend: Supports printing TPU 95A HF/90A/85A.

I believe a user here from the forum posted some information in the H2C thread that he printed from both nozzles. Here is his video on the subject:

Indeed it does work with the ‘normal’ don’t use the ams tricks (unless tpu for ams) we would like bambu to officially also allow it on the left nozzle as they promised but as the video shows if you want you can do it. Its not the perfect printer for it but workable.

thanks for sharing! Basically it works only using the right nozzle, but at the end you can use it like a H2D (as you cannot use the AMS)

Is it OK to use ‘TPU for AMS’ in the left hotend per Bambu? (I think so, and I think could be used with an AMS HT as the Bambu site implies that is possible…)

Yes been doing that for the last 100+ hours. I would keep a eye on the poop shoot flipper thing tpu is a little more sticky and make sure it doesn’t slowly clog. For the rest no issues for me so far.
