Filaments
PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, TPU, PA, PC: temperatures, drying, build plate.
What it does
The common 3D printing filaments side by side: nozzle and bed temperatures, part cooling, whether it needs an enclosure, drying, the build plate and adhesion, the density, what each is good and less good at.
- These are common ranges from manufacturers’ data sheets: each brand gives its own, and the label on your spool wins.
- Dry a filament that pops, strings or prints rough: most of them absorb moisture from the air (nylon a lot).
- ABS, ASA, PA and PC give off fumes: print in a ventilated room.
- The density is used by Cost and production to estimate what is left on a weighed spool.
