Fillament for hot environment

Hi,

i'am looking for a filament, that is capable for replacement parts in my 3d printer.

It is a Ultimaker 2(+) with a enclosure, so pla is melting if i am printing with abs.

 

In the future, I would also like to use material that requires even higher temperatures.

 

Any idea what material is best for my needs.

 

Thanks in advance

    Let me add BioFila PowR.

    It's some sort of PLA-derivative but the maker claims it's good for up to 130°C...

     

    Do not know whether that's really realistic with this stuff, but at least I made a test in boiling water -

    and there was no sign of softening or weakness of this stuff!

    Gives quite descent surface quality as well.

     

    Unfortunately they have only a few colors available yet.

    Thanks alot for the advice.

     

    Here are a few parts I made for my printer.

    1. Ultimaker2 Cable Chain by IRobertI from YouMagine

    2. Dual Head Ultimaker2 by UltiArjan from YouMagine


    Both didn't like printing with ABS in a enclosure.

    The dual head holes were worn out.

    The cable chain was twisted and deformed.

     

    The next time I print these parts,

    I want them to handle higher temperatures.

    You mean pictures from the bent parts?
    I have to see, if I still have them.

    ButI think, I threw it away.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.

      • Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released
        Cura now supports Method series printers!
         
        A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
