General comparison of all available filament materials?
Posted
· General comparison of all available filament materials?
I don't know of any where they have done the work for you ..... if I see something useful I just buy a sample and try it - if I like it (or can get it to work ....)
What are your customers asking for?
As an example I have been printing e-nable hands - a small part in PLA which tensions the cable just snaps ..... so I got out a sample of the new colorfabb Xt and it is SO strong - I can't break it - but it took a bit of experimenting (240 degrees and no fan - which seems wrong )
I know the samples/time trying are expensive, but I normally pull them out when I am driven to by my favourite filament not working!
Some good reviews on flexible filaments on here - I love ninjaflex but it is a PITA to print
We don't often release an alpha version of Ultimaker Cura... So what's different this time? This Alpha contains such a huge slicing engine overhaul that we really need your help!
We wish to celebrate and honor the innovators that push forward the field, technology and world. We opted to not present it as a competition or ranked list. Every innovator has earned his spot on that list in their own way. We also look at the 3D printing industry as a whole and not limit the list to those only using Ultimaker.
