I really like usign the textured PEI plate as I don’t need glue stick and is easy to remove. However I have had a lot more failures with the PEI plate compared to cool plate specifically with Esun PLA+ (I raised printing temperature for PLA+ to 235.) The failures are mainly the print stops sticking to the plate.
I clean the PEI plate with isopropyl alcohol but still fails.
I was curious if anyone else having similar issues/suggestions
Thank you
(Currently using cool plate + Glue stick which works)
Can’t say i have issues on the PEI plate with eSun PLA+
I’m printing on 220c with a bed of 65c, standard PLA settings and it works well.
From what i have understood tho, do not clean the PEI with IPA but with a drop of normal dish soap and rinse with water. Dry with a clean cloth. (never had to do that on this PEI, but it worked really well on my Ender 3)
Stupid question, but did you select the PEI sheet in bambu studio? It defaulted to the cold plate on my version and yeah, nothing stuck to it.
Also bed temp of PEI should be around 65 celcius
eSun PLA+ works perfect with PEI, all default, both profile Generic PLA and Bambu PLA Basic.
IPA (isopropyl). Every 5-10 prints you need to wash PEI with warm water and washing-up liquid.
Both, PEI Double Textured and Cool plate work’s on default settings/profiles with eSUN PLA+ without problems.
Lots of used spools as esun works perfectly with AMS
I can also confirm eSun PLA+ works fine for me on the Textured PEI plate. Really not a fan of the filament for other reasons, however.
When things stop sticking and paper towel + IPA aren’t helping, resort to a wash in the sink with dish soap. I haven’t actually had to use soap on either of my P1P plates at all yet, but I avoid touching the plate with my hands at all costs. Hardly even have to use IPA either.
Another one here for eSun PLA+ and the Textured PEI plate working like goshdarn magic. Just used the default settings “Generic PLA + Textured PEI plate” which looks to be about 220-240ºC for the nozzle, and 50-55ºC for the hotbed.
I tried the eSun PLA+ with the Bambu Lab PLA Basic profile to print the bench that was in the microSD card and it totally failed because I think it was to fast for this filament or the temp was too low? it just ripped the Deck when it was printing in higher speeds, now I have printed the bench from printable with max 100m/s and it turned out ok, some stringing on the filament but its ok, nothing that can’t be fixed.
But how do you print faster with this Filament? Is it even possible?
