Has anybody printed a shape in Nylon-filament with the Ender-3 V3 SE Printer?
Any issues? Modifications needed to be made?
You’ll need a cabinet as it is prone to warping, no drafts and constant temperature environment. The hotend will be right at the upper limit and I would probably look at upgrading it to all-metal hotend 300°C+ (Creality offering or Microswiss Flowtech). Upgraded build plate to a PEI sheet would also help.
Thanks for Your answer! At the moment I’m actually building a cabinet for the printer. I realize the 3V3SE´ max temperature goes to 260°C and it will probably not be enough. The “Microswiss Flowtech” could be a solution BUT what do I do with the motherboard/firmware? How do I force it to higher temperature?
It´s a year ago since Creality made any update for the 3V3SE and I doubt they have time for “old” printers now.
I don´t have the time for greater rebuilds of my Creality Ender 3V3SE (I have 2)
Anybody who actually have printed something in nylon and what filament did You use?
By running Klipper is my first thought, Sonic pad or Raspberry Pi type setup. If you have 2 V3SE I would put them both on a Sonic Pad, I have my V3SE and Ender 5 plus on one.
Thanks again for Your input!
It means I first need to buy a Sonic pad and probably a new hotend but I saw the discussion Ender-3 V3 SE: config settings to roll our own firmware please - #68 by sciencepatel
and ”TomasekJ, Firmware Release V1.0.7”
You tested it on the Ender 3 v3 SE?
Perhaps I could give it a try to start with if it´s worth it?
Been following that thread quite keenly. Not tried that firmware since I am no longer on Marlin on my V3SE, might be worth a try though.
I think I will try some day in the comming week as a first step.
