Look closer... You will see a subtle amount of metallic particles in this material, making it extra special for those who take extra care in their print. It makes for a surprising effect unseen in many gray colors.
“For best printing results we recommend drying the nGen Metallic colors. Filament drying has been successfully teste in our lab at 70C, 12-24h before printing.”
At colorFabb we have a well equipped 3d printing studio with a lot of popular 3d printers. We know our materials will give you excellent results and to help you get these results here are tips and trick for using colorFabb 3d printing filament.
Adviced 3d printing temperature:
220-240C
Adviced 3d print speed:
40 - 70 mm/s
Advised Heated bed
75-85C
Build platform
nGen gives best results on a heated build platform, 75C to about 85C is usually needed for proper adhesion to a glass plate.
Printing on a cold bed is possible but you’ll need some adhesion tools to minimize warping. 3DLac, buildTak or 3DEeze can do the trick.
Since colorFabb develops and produces their own filaments we have a lot of knowhow about our materials. Here you’ll find all kinds of interesting material specifications that will help you decide which material is best for your project.
