0.6 CC Print Core not compatible with PETG ??


Recommended Posts

Posted · 0.6 CC Print Core not compatible with PETG ??

Cura is saying the CC 0.6 is not compatible with PETG, this seems very odd, UM developed the Aracna Engine to use bigger nozzles but don't provide a 0.6 which works with PETG ?, is there any reason why the CC does not work with PETG but the AA does ?

    You can find the details about this here: https://support.makerbot.com/s/article/1667337922171

    But the short answer is that UltiMaker never intended the CC core to be used for general materials that were not abrasive.

    You can manually alter profiles to make it accept it (others have done this) but UltiMaker does not do any validation testing of the printcore with non-abrasive materials so your mileage my vary. 

    As to why a 0.6 AA core does not exist? 🤷‍♂️

    indeed, a AA06 seems like the most obvious and needed option. That's a very confusing gap in the nozzles available, seems little point in having the Aracna engine and all its clever calculations to run bigger nozzles and you cannot buy a bigger nozzle for PLA !!

        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

      • UltiMaker Cura Alpha 🎄 Tree Support Spotlight 🎄
        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
