PETG: Test Print
Description
This was a test print of the Hatchbox© PETG-Blue on the Prusa i3 MKS3+ to tune in the printing parameters for the PETG material. § FILAMENT SETTINGS The default Prusa 'Filament Settings' from the 'Generic PETG' profile were used with the following changes: Temperature - Nozzle - First Layer: 2̶3̶0̶° →235°C (May consider reducing after seeing all the stringing from the high viscosity material and was oozing out of nozzle during heat-up) § PRINT SETTINGS The default Prusa 'Print Settings' from the '0.15 QUALITY' profile were used with the following changes: Modifiers - First Layer Speed: 2̶0̶ →15mm/s (Noticed at the higher speed, bad adhesion and nozzle actually dragging printed material off of bed. From additional research, may further reduce the First Layer Acceleration 1̶0̶0̶0̶ →300mm/s² in the future) § PRINTER MODIFICATIONS Swapped the printer bed from sheet steel from Smooth Sheet (use for PLA) → Texture Sheet and set up a new Sheet Profile on the printer with a Z-Value: -1.390mm (Smooth Sheet is Z-Value: -1.202mm)
