Had the exact same feeling, was about to chuck my filament out a window after half a spool, and now I have a benchy and it shockingly came out clean as my PLA prints! I was at least expecting machine variation (I have ender 3 pro) or some brand variables to kill me once again. You’ve saved us so much grief. Listen to the nice man everyone!

Thank you mate. I am really used to PLA and TPU, only recently I started with PETG. Its material properties really appeals to me, possibly the best of the two worlds, ABS and PLA. But man I struggled with stringing and the answer laid on speed. 30mm/sec is slow but clearly on the safer side. As you have said PETG doesn't like speed and that's is totally true. Thanks again and really good video.

One thing you might want to point out, which I learned the hard way: Bed levelling. When I dove into PETG, I used Curas default settings for a brand PETG, figuring it was well in the range of the filaments specifications. I noticed quickly however that the first layer would not adhere to the bed though. While I had just levelled the bed the day before, and the PLA print I did before worked just fine, it took me a while to come up with the idea to just push the bed up a little bit furter - turns out this was all that was needed!

@or3n_ Жыл бұрын

Yea I am finding that different types of filament need a different amount of squish to adhere. I think I might stick with petg as my go to if all things go well in the next dozen prints or so. Any recommendations on a filament that will be good in handheld electronics? I think petg can withstand the heat and abuse but I havent gotten to test it yet.

@@tr3nDmaker Apologies for the belated reply. I have not gotten to the PETG settings I'd like yet. I'd say they are acceptable and I printed a fairly OK object which curled up off the glass mirror bed in one corner, but was useable. I don't quite look as good as my PLA prints yet. Well, one thing is that PETG has gotten me tweeking settings that I had never ventured into before and got me thinking about what the printer is actually doing. I reduced the Cura acceleration defaults from 3000mm/s/s to 700 mm/s/s and the Jerk from 20 to 7. (I didn't realise how crazy high the default is set at )I don't think this affects the stringing but at least the machine does not go ballistic on fast travel moves now. My PETG is from South Africa, called SA Filament. Its PLA is excellent, but the PETG seems to be giving me better prints at 220C with fan at 70% rather than the 235-255C they recommend. I went up and down the temp scale from 210~285C and the fan scale from 0~100% speed. Apparently the colour of PETG can vary its response as well. In my case the colour is Copper, but I'd say it is more like the colour of std pot-plant brown. My bed temp seems to stick OK at 70C when I lay down the initial layer with fan off at 245C but I reduce temp after that and turn the fan on between 40~70C, as I was getting bad blobbing before at hotter with fan off, which has now stopped.

Have in mind i am getting quite amazing prints in PLA, but there is a possibility for me to get quite a load of PET filament saving an amazing ammount of money but i need to get pet filament to work in my kobra neo.

Hello! Thank you so much for your video! I’m having trouble with printing PETG, where during non printing movements (especially over gaps) it will ooze a lot. I’ve tried dialing down the temperature and increasing the retraction to about 7 mm and upped the retraction speed a bit. It helped a little bit, but I’m still getting the ooze and stringing pretty bad. Is the retraction the only thing that goes into that?

Travel speed is extremely important. At least 120 mm/s. Go 200 mm/s if your printer can do it.

Very helpful tips. Thank you! Turns out print speed and infill speed seems to be my issue. Now printing a big ender dragon for my son.

Try FR4 bed sheet at 75 degrees. Petg temp at 250 for first layer, 10mm/s raise z nozzle by additional 50% of layer height

Thank you. you don’t know how many hours and how many retraction towers and temperature towers I printed and made no progress until now

Was looking for a video to send to someone who is struggling with petg. Looks like this will work! I find on my vzbot i have to print at 250-260c for petg but thats because i run it at 100mm/s anything less and the prints dont have any structure. My enders like about 230-235c at default speeds.

I'm a noob, I'm trying out petg to build some wall drill battery mounts. Is there a way to get a list of your settings??

I use Creality slicer. Do you believe Cura slicer has advantages?

I love this but man for some reaason I get great first layer and so forth just during the process filament starts to stick to my nozzle head idky .. should I raise the heat up or lower it ? Should I raise the cooling fan which is at 40.... I have PETG at 0.15mm feeler gauge z gap already ... But when I print with 0.24 and 0.28 it's great but when I print with 0.2 It starts to get petg on nozzle during mid print .

Ok... this could be several things. Most likely, you are over-extruding and the filament has nowhere to go... so it collects on nozzle. Best solution is to calibrate your extruder e-steps... but, you could try lowering FLOW to 94% and see if that helps. If it does, I would recommend the calibration procedure. 2nd, could be your gap from nozzle to bed is too little... It will print fine for first few layers, but the filament over several layers builds up and has to find a place to go. 3rd... may be running a bit hot... try lowering 5-10 degrees. Hope this helps. Let me know how it comes out.

Hi copied all you setting and prints come out perfect but for some reason it wont let me change the infill % and is greyed out now and in the settings its ticked so ??? can you help

I have been sooo frustrated with printing PETG and then came across your video which I watched with great enthusiasm.... I have been unable to get any print of any real usable size to print without on end of the print object warping on one end or the other. I too am using a Creatlity 10s Pro v2 and made every recommended change to Cura that you covered. Sliced the print and start the printing..... Somewhere between 5 - 7 % of the print cycle, the print started to warp. It seems to always happen somwhere around 5% of completion. I have printed test cubes and other precision test objects with success. Also print objects less than 5mm high seem to be ok. But anything over 10mm high always warps. I would appreciate any thoughts.

A couple of solutions… A may not be getting a perfect bed level… check out my vid on leveling with paper. Be sure everything is tight. Important part of vid is visually checking first layer. Check out vid on creation dual surfaces on s pro… adding pei sheet on one side, textured on other. Great bite with pei. This next one frustrated me big time. See if heating/ ac vent blowing any where close to bed surface. I had a ceiling vent 7 feet from printer… when turned on blew a slight draft on one corner and started a lift which lead to full on warp!!! Let me know if this helped!

What are your rekommandations for retraction and retraction speed ? And what about your final z hight

@tr3nDmaker 2 жыл бұрын

Retraction is very tricky and often retractions can vary even on same model of 3D printer. Tension on extruder, nozzles, etc can be factors. But, here is a bit of advice. Start with Retraction speed at 35. Then run some retraction tests on mm for retraction till good results, even if not 100% perfect. Then adjust retraction speed up or down 5(possibly 10), so 25-45 range, to fine tune results. Be sure running nozzle temps on lower side that provides clean look and more importantly...strength. Layer should not split. easily. As baseline for ender 3 pro... 5.4 at 30.Retraction is tricky. So, good luck.

How easy is it to remove from a non removable glass heated bed (ROBO R1+) I’ve hear with some printers when pealing it off the bed it can pull some pieces of the glass bed with it.

@tr3nDmaker 2 жыл бұрын

That can happen... but, it often causes by impatience. Small items usually pop off with little to no effort. Big and flat surfaces can cause these issues, if you do not let glass to cool down. As glass cools , it shrinks and loosens bond from 3D print and glass. Also, I use a glue stick. Adds a barrier between glass an 3d Print also. For, stuck prints. Let cool down and very carefully get a scrapper under edges, and work around 3D print until it releases. Don't force it... slowly work surface tension until bond releases. If really stuck... try heating up then let cool down again. In 5 years of 3D printing and 1000's of prints strictly on glass... I have never cracked or had the glass break off. Worst case scenario... remove bed and place in freezer with 3D print. Super cold will release tension and should pop off easy.

I have problem with my my ender 3 s1 pro. i used the setting that you have recommended but the temperature starts to drop after 10-15 while printing. any idea what the problem might be? new printer and just started doing 3D printing

@tr3nDmaker 2 жыл бұрын

In temperature settings… there is a setting for temps for 1st layer, and last. Be sure all temps are the same. Guessing after 1st layer temp are switching.
