Printing Tips for Engineering materials

When printing with engineering materials like ABS, ABS-GF, ASA, PC, PA, PA-CF, PA6-CF, PA6-GF, PAHT-CF, PET-CF, PPA-CF, PPS-CF etc. you can commonly encounter these issues:

  1. Most of these materials are prone to moisture, resulting in poor print quality (rough surface, oozing, elephant foot effect).
  2. It can easily cause nozzle clogging when printing these kinds of materials, especially those contain carbon fiber (CF) or glass fiber (GF).
  3. Potential for weak bonding between layers during the printing.
