Mechanical bonding
To improve the bed adhesion and reduce warping of the first layer, several measures are available. For example, using a brim or raft that...


Minimum cooling time
In a previous post the importance of controlling layer temperature is explained. In the latest prints poor results due to insufficient...


The impact of layer height
The layer height is an important design parameter that impacts the printing time, cost, visual appearance and physical properties of a...


Build plate adhesion
Since PP is known for its stubbornness to attach to other materials than itself, we were expecting some struggles with build plate...


Controlling layer temperature
When 3D printing thermoplastic materials the controlling of layer temperature is of great importance to create quality prints. By...


PP testing
Here are the results of the first tests with new recycled PP material from Eco-Oh! We are glad to have found we made the right decision...


Overhang
Here are the test result of the overhang testing. With a layer height of 4 mm and overhang steps of 2 mm we managed to get good results...


Nozzle isolation
By adding simple isolation around the nozzle we managed to increase the nozzle temperature from 60 up to 170 degree. Definitely one of...


Household waste PE/PP
After many months of developing and testing to master the PE/PP material from household waste, our gathered data indicate that we will...


Layer Bonding & Printing Height
Since the optimal layer height was found at 6.5 mm with a 5 mm nozzle, the layer bonding and printing height are up for the test....


Layer Height
The optimal layer height will differ based on the output of a used nozzle. As starting point 80% of the nozzle size is valid in desktop...
