Nozzle temp when printing with PETG-CF

I bought some Sunlu PETG-CF and the info on the box said to rint at 240-50C, while the Creality print suggested 290C.

Tried 290 and got an extruder blockage - tried 250 and also got a blockage. Tried 260 :smiley: - all good.
The blockage at 290 was probably from heat creep while the lower temp was probably from too low a temp.

Anyone else printing with PETG-CF? If so what noble temp are you using?

My regular PETG nozzle temp is 255-60C.
I’m using a K2 plus.

If it prints fine at 260… why bother? You can’t always believe what is on the box or role… you have to find the sweet spot for printing the material…

Hi, I print the Tinmorry PETG-GF by 265 degree Celsius, an by 200mm/sec. Thats works.

To be sure what’s best test test test you’ll be glad you did a couple of the built in tests and nail that setting.

Don’t forget to switch of auto calibrate when you send the print

Hello,

Like effjot, I also use Tinmorry PETG-CF on a K2 Plus. I’ve had success printing with the following:

Nozzle: 250C
Bed: 80C
Chamber: 35C
Max Volumetric Speed: 10mm^3/s
Retraction: 0.8mm/30mm/s

Hope this helps :slight_smile:
