Complete Technical Printing Guide - CONDUCTIVE FILAFLEX
🌡️ 1. Material Preparation
Filament Drying (CRUCIAL):
- 📏 Temperature: 55°C
- ⏱️ Minimum time: 1 hour
- 💡 Proper drying is essential for optimal printing results
⚡ 2. Understanding Print Speed
Volumetric vs. Linear Speed
- 🌊 Volumetric Speed (mm³/s): Like water through a hose - measures how much plastic flows per second, regardless of nozzle size.
- 📏 Linear Speed (mm/s): Like walking speed - how fast the printer head moves across the print area
- 🔑 Key Formula: Linear Speed = Volumetric Speed / (Line Width × Layer Height)
✨ The Magic: When you set a volumetric speed limit in your slicer, it automatically calculates and adjusts all linear speeds (perimeters, infill, etc.) based on your current nozzle size and layer height. This ensures consistent material flow regardless of your print settings!
⚙️ 3. Basic Parameters
Unique Characteristics of Conductive Filaflex
Unlike rigid filaments, this conductive TPU stretches when extruded, producing thinner lines. The line width will be smaller than the nozzle diameter. To ensure proper conductivity and bonding between vertical walls and perimeters, adjust flow and temperature accordingly.
| Nozzle | Layer Height | Line Width | Volumetric Speed | Temperature |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.4mm | 0.2mm | 0.38mm | 4.0 mm³/s | 250°C |
| 0.6mm | 0.3mm | 0.58mm | 9.0 mm³/s | 250°C |
| 0.8mm | 0.4mm | 0.78mm | 16.0 mm³/s | 252°C |
| 1.0mm | 0.5mm | 0.98mm | 25.0 mm³/s | 255°C |
🚀 4. Speed Settings
⚠️ NOTE: Speeds are calculated to ensure proper material flow and conductivity between layers.
0.4mm Nozzle (Volumetric Speed: 4.0 mm³/s)
| Line Type | Percentage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| External Perimeter | 50% | 26.32 mm/s |
| Internal Perimeters | 75% | 39.47 mm/s |
| Infill | 100% | 52.63 mm/s |
| Top/Bottom | 60% | 31.58 mm/s |
| First Layer | 30% | 15.79 mm/s |
0.6mm Nozzle (Volumetric Speed: 9.0 mm³/s)
| Line Type | Percentage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| External Perimeter | 50% | 25.86 mm/s |
| Internal Perimeters | 75% | 38.79 mm/s |
| Infill | 100% | 51.72 mm/s |
| Top/Bottom | 60% | 31.03 mm/s |
| First Layer | 30% | 15.52 mm/s |
0.8mm Nozzle (Volumetric Speed: 16.0 mm³/s)
| Line Type | Percentage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| External Perimeter | 50% | 25.64 mm/s |
| Internal Perimeters | 75% | 38.46 mm/s |
| Infill | 100% | 51.28 mm/s |
| Top/Bottom | 60% | 30.77 mm/s |
| First Layer | 30% | 15.38 mm/s |
1.0mm Nozzle (Volumetric Speed: 25.0 mm³/s)
| Line Type | Percentage | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| External Perimeter | 50% | 25.51 mm/s |
| Internal Perimeters | 75% | 38.27 mm/s |
| Infill | 100% | 51.02 mm/s |
| Top/Bottom | 60% | 30.61 mm/s |
| First Layer | 30% | 15.31 mm/s |
↩️ 5. Retraction Settings
🚀 IMPORTANT: Set travel speed to the maximum your machine allows (200-500mm/s). Faster movements reduce filament oozing time, minimizing stringing.
| Nozzle | Distance | Speed | Z-Hop |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.4mm | 1.5-2.0mm | 20mm/s | 0.2mm |
| 0.6mm | 1.5-2.0mm | 20mm/s | 0.2mm |
| 0.8mm | 1.5-2.0mm | 20mm/s | 0.2mm |
| 1.0mm | 1.5-2.0mm | 20mm/s | 0.2mm |
🌡️ 6. Bed Temperature Settings
Bed Temperature:
- Small parts: No heating (room temperature)
- Large parts: 50-55°C
❄️ 7. Cooling Settings
Cooling Configuration:
- General: 0% (fan off)
- KEEP FAN ALWAYS: OFF
- Force fan speed for overhangs and bridges: OFF
- Layers < 10 seconds: 40% fan
- First layer: Always 0%
🔧 8. Troubleshooting Guide
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Irregular extrusion | 1. Dry the filament 2. Check extruder 3. Reduce speed |
| Poor adhesion | 1. Dry the filament 2. Use adhesive 3. Adjust first layer |
| Stringing | 1. Dry the filament 2. Adjust retraction 3. Increase travel speed 4. Check temperature |
✨ 9. Best Practices
- 🌡️ Keep filament dry - store properly and dry before use
- ⚙️ Preferably use direct drive extruder
- 🔄 Print multiple small parts simultaneously for better results
- 🚀 Use maximum travel speed to minimize stringing
⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: These printing parameters are initial recommendations based on our experience. They may need adjustment depending on your specific 3D printer, environmental conditions, and the geometry of the part you are printing. Use these settings as a starting point and fine-tune them according to your specific needs.
