PolySmooth™ is a unique, easy-to-print filament designed for hands-free post processing. The surface can be smoothed with alcohol to achieve layer free models using the Polysher™. We recommend that this material be used with the PolyBox™ and to keep it at dry conditions (relative humidity of 15% or less) at all times to maintain the best printing results. Features Layer-Free™ - Layer-Free™ technology involves exposing a 3D printed part to an aerosol of micro-sized alcohol droplets, generated by a rapidly vibrating, perforated membrane called the nebulizer. The aerosol will then be adsorbed by the surface of the 3D printed part and render it smooth with a glossy surface. Effortless Post-processing - The first 3D printable filament engineered for post-processing. Polymaker developed PolySmooth™ to work alongside the Polysher™ (sold separately) providing the solution to dramatically improve the surface quality of 3D printed objects. Balanced Mechanical Properties - PolySmooth™ features well balanced mechanical properties, outperforming ABS and PLA on many attributes, making it an ideal material for everyday 3D printing. Easy-to-print - PolySmooth™ is compatible with most 3D printers, printing under similar conditions to regular PLA. No heated bed required but can be used for best results (up to 70°C). Polymaker have also optimised PolySmooth™ to allow easy removal of support. Printing Settings Nozzle Temperature 190°C - 220°C Build Plate Temperature 40°C - 70°C Build Surface Material Works well with Glass Build Surface Treatment Apply PVA glue to the build surface to improve adhesion.Enclosure Not required but useful to protect from drafts and maintain a stable printing environment. If enclosed, we strongly recommend to keep a door or lid open to prevent environment from getting too hot. Cooling Fan ON Printing Speed: 40 mm/s - 60 mm/s Retraction: The ideal retraction settings vary from printer to printer and depend on the hot end. The following settings have been a good starting point for many machines. Direct Drive: Retraction distance of 1mm with retraction speed of 20mm/s Bowden: Retraction distance of 3mm with retraction speed of 40mm/s Recommended Support Material Dual Extrusion: PolyDissolve™ S1 (Dissolve in tap water) The above are printing recommendations based on 0.4 mm nozzle. Please note ideal printing conditions may vary depending on your 3D printer setup. For high speed 3D printers, make sure to increase your extrusion temperature in order to use higher printing speeds. Compatibility PolySmooth™ PVB has been engineered with compatibility in mind to print excellently on a wide range of 3D printers. If your printer suffers from heat creep and has difficulty printing some brands of PLA or Silk PLA due to jamming, your hot-end may suffer from heat creep. PVB 3D printing materials work best in set ups where the filament guide system is smooth and as no harsh bends. Of course with thousands of unique 3d printer models on the market, we can't guarantee each filament type will work with every 3D printer. Slicer experience and setting adjustment is always required to get the most out of a material. Before jumping into an ambitious project we always recommend printing some known calibration tests to build or make adjustments to the filament profile.
