PolyMide PA6-CF fillament

there is good profiles published on the Polymaker Discord channel/“3d-profile-area”. I have used them and worked fine.

Thank you for informing us of your many findings.
I will use them to print a variety of items.

Did my first proper Polymaker PA6-CF test today. I must say this stuff is gooood!
Dried before printing at 105°C for 8 hours.

The prints look great.
Did you use the printer for drying?

No, I use a modified food dehydrator. Modified with an SSR, PT100 and PID temperature controller. Parts from Aliexpress.

Amazing.
That is precisely what I would like to do, but I have been delaying it for a long time. Congrats. @33dd … it is a great make.
My primary justification relates to my dehydrator’s built-in digital temperature control instead of the more straightforward manual “knob”. Yet, maybe it is just laziness.
Did you post your make or have some shareable info?

Thanks.

@33dd yes please post the details somewhere. I would like to do the same!

WHY OH WHY - using the factory settings for the PA6-CF setting on my P1S does it start to print no problems… and then about 30-35% of the way through… it completely messes up and pulls it off the hotbed, and then makes a birds-nest mess all over and completely wastes the filament? Someone please help???

Did you use the Generic PA-CF profile for this? Door and lid open or closed? Thank you!
