@Gigi has been successful. The things he suggest will help you a lot: extra thin layer of PVA (I think that is the main ingredient of 3DLac but not sure). Cover the front and top of the machine. brim. And most importantly overlooked - squish the material a bit more. Which printer do you have? On UM printers I like to squish the material a bit more if it's warping. More info here:
Also note that there are many other high temp materials. How high do you need? This graph in the link below is not an accurate guide - most especially the working temperature of materials (your most important requirement) but if you can pick a material a little more to the left in the lower graph then that will be easier to print:
In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
