Issues Printing with ASA-CF

Printing ASA-CF on a P1S

  • filament dried for 12hrs straight out of packaging
  • done calibrations
  • .6 nozzle, hardened gears and nozzle
  • door closed
  • lid on
  • 0 fans
  • bed temp 100c
  • nozzle 260c
  • 10mm/s volumetric speed
  • .94 flow ratio (read somewhere this was the magic number)

Tried .95 and .96 flow and 12mm/s volumetric to no avail. Had no luck with the generic ASA profile in Bambu Slicer (doesn’t seem to be a profile for ASA-CF)

I’ve just had nothing but nightmares with PETG-CF. Was told ASA is a walk in the park in comparison.

I should add I’m fairly new to 3D printing.

Please help! It’s driving me insane.




When you went through the process of tuning your filament. What steps did you take and what were the results?

Hi mate, I just did the Flow Dynamics and Flow Rate in Bambu Studio, and from memory, the standard values seemed to produce the most consistent results in the calibration.

Hello,

Try this and see what happens with your ASA-CF filament.

Set your nozzle to 275c

Set your max volumetric speed to 7.08 this will cap it at 50 mm/s

I don’t know how much that overhang is or how you are setting it on the plate ?

Keep us updated :v:

Which filament brand?
Have you looked how it slices? Overhang is OK, but even with ASA-CF you can’t print in mid-air :wink: Reduce layer height to reduce %-age of filament that is hanging over.

Hi mate I will try this now. Overhang isn’t very steep at all. I have printed this same object with PETG and PLA many times without any overhang issue.

Cool hope it works out for your part you might have to use 30% fan speed on the overhang area.
