PETG Data Sheet | Safety & Recommendations

PETG Data Sheet, Description & Applications Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol, known as PETG or PET-G, is a thermoplastic polyester that delivers significant durability, chemical resistance, and formability for manufacturing. PETG is an adaptation of PET (Polyethylene terephthalate), where the ‘G’ stands for Glycol. In addition, it is added at a molecular level to offer different chemical […]

Forget About 3D Printer Over-Extrusion

3D printer over-extrusion is one problem that we all suffered once in our printing journey. With our 3 great extrusion setting solutions, you will forget about the blobs and strings that appear when over-extrusion happens. If you notice over-extrusion stop your printing, adjust with our solutions, then resume your 3D printing activities.  What is 3D […]

Filament Spool Hacking | Forget About The Knots

Filament Spool Without Tangles  We all feel that frustration when a filament spool gets knotted and eventually ruins our printed project. When the 3D filament becomes tangled it cannot be transported to the feeder and there is no extrusion. This is one of the many issues that we notice while printing. Your project ends up […]

Calibrate Flow for 3D Printer: An Engineer Approach

FLUID FLOW CALIBRATION FOR 3D PRINTING, AN ENGINEERING APPROACH To calibrate flow for a 3D printer can be determined by fixed and variable values. These are for proper extruder multiplier calculations.  Fluid flow is affected by various factors such as force, temperature, material density, material type, friction, and restriction. These are the principles and factors […]
