Polymaker PolyMide PA6-CF in Black, 1.75MM, .5KG A higher interlayer adhesion compared to unreinforced PA6. PolyMide PA6-CF is a carbon fiber reinforced PA6 (Nylon 6) filament. The carbon fiber reinforcement provides significantly improved stiffness, strength and heat resistance with outstanding layer adhesion. Printing Settings Don't waste your time fiddling with settings, and get printing right away. Check out our pre-tested print settings below to get started printing with your brand new filament even faster. Some settings may change slightly depending on your 3D printer. Hotend Temperature: 280˚C - 300˚C Bed Temperature: 25˚C - 50˚C Chamber Temperature: 25-50 ˚C Print Speed: 60mm/s Fan: Off For Direct Drive Extruders Retraction Distance: 3mm Retraction Speed: 40mm/s For Indirect Drive Extruders Retraction Distance: 6mm Retraction Speed: 60mm/s Drying Settings (Only if the material has absorbed moisture) 80˚C for 12h in a regular oven Level 3 for 18h in the PolyDryer Annealing Settings: 80˚ for 6h Polymaker PolyMide PA6-CF Details: Fiber Adhesion Technology Fiber Adhesion Technology dramatically improves the Z-axis strength by engineering the surface chemistry of the fibers to achieve a strong fiber and matrix bonding. In contrast to conventional fiber-reinforced filaments, which exhibit considerable reduction in Z-axis strength, the PolyMide PA6-CF has a higher interlayer adhesion in comparison to the unreinforced PA6. Wear Resistant Nozzle Recommendation The PolyMide PA6-CF consists of 20% chopped glass fibers by weight which makes it abrasive. It is important to have an abrasion resistant nozzle to avoid damage to your nozzle. A hardened nozzle is highly recommended while using this filament. Bed Surface Although Polymide PA6-CF can be printed on almost any surface with a thin coat of PVA glue or Magigoo PA, it comes highly recommended that while using the Polymaker Polymide PA6-CF, a flex plate is used for an easy removal of the model from the plate. Dry Box System PolyMide PA6-CF is a polyamide 6 based material which means that it is susceptible to absorbing moisture from the atmosphere which can subsequently affect the quality and mechanical properties of the final prints. If the filament has absorbed moisture it can be dried at 80˚C for 12 hours in a convection oven.
