    Love Kingroon. I have run through 109 Rolls of PETG and 273kg of PLA since June of 2023. Love their $89 USD 10kg with Free Shipping Deals when they come up. I have ZERO issues with PETG on a Textured PEI sheet and have used ZERO glue.

    When printing with PETG on textured PEI sheet, you can use glue stick before the print. The glue helps release the print after it cools down

  • @jamese1474
    @jamese1474 2 месяца назад +12

    I think you're supposed to add glue to the build plate with PETG to act as a barrier, not to make it stick even more as in the case of PLA. Also putting build plate in the freezer will help you release anything. Be careful pulling off build plate as you can destroy the surfce texture. Also you might want to look into using PETG on your support interface (interface only). You can set this in Bambu Studio. PETG doesn't stick to PLA so no scarring of the underside. Enjoying your channel.

    • @Dozer077
      @Dozer077 2 месяца назад

      This is very true. The glue stick creates a barrier that makes the PETG release from the build plate alot easier, and PETG is a great material for supports.

      You can use many different bed adhesives, I use 3DLAC, I bought an upgrade pack from my vendor when I bought my X1C Combo, included in this pack was a bottle of the 3DLAC which works just great and seemingly lasts forever, the benefit being that the part isn't gunked up like it is with gluestick, I only use it with PETG and ABS though.

  • @adams1625
    @adams1625 2 месяца назад +6

    When I print PETG on the textured plates I either do a fresh plate wipe with alcohol, or I'll apply a nice coat of windex on the plate. #1 most important thing for releasing PETG from build plates is waiting 10-30 minutes for the plate to cool. Ususally they realease themselves at that point.

    • @raypalmer7733
      @raypalmer7733 2 месяца назад

      Agree with Windex, but use the non-ammonia version.

    I use Kingroon PETG. Always dry the roll when it comes out of the package. To help with release from the build plate use Magigoo or elmers glue stick.

  • @Ernzt8
    @Ernzt8 2 месяца назад +1

    PETG grabs when cooling down, so when you heat the buildplate up again it will remove easier. That works for me.

  • @mikemartin6165
    @mikemartin6165 Месяц назад

    Love the video. To get PETG to release easier, try dropping your bed temperature by 5 or 10 degrees C. I print on a textured PEI sheet at 75 for the bed, 260 for the nozzle, and it releases easily. I print at 200mm/sec with a volumetric limit of 30 cubic mm/sec. These values will depend on your printer of course. Also, try raising your Z offset by 0.025mm or 0.05mm. If the first layer is printed too close to the bed that will also make it hard to remove.
    I print mostly in PETG. It has a slightly higher melting point and is slightly more flexible than PLA. It has low creep which means it doesn't bend under load over time. I find PETG generally more durable than PLA. The best thing I like about it is that the filament doesn't break when I'm loading it.

      @@gizmofactory That is strange... I just did it the other day just fine. I would check to see if your slicer, printer, and AMS are up-to-date on their firmware. If all else fails, you can set the PLA or PETG as PLA or PETG and adjust the filament profile settings to match the specified bed and nozzle temperatures for the support interface filament. Its how people did it before but I have never needed to. Just to make sure you should be setting the PETG or PLA as a support interface not the support itself. Not sure if that could be the reason you're unable to use support interfaces with these filaments but give that a try. Hopefully that helps.

    Hi Macy, I love your videos. Something I use on my bamboo printers for PLA and every other type of filament is the super cheap hairspray from Walmart. Suave Max Hold Hairspray is what I use. It helps hold things to the bed, but it also helps release PETG when the print is done.

    Kingroon is awesome. I print a ton of kingroon petg.
    Kingroon is just a sunlu rebrand so it’s the same filament as sunlu which is a known reliable brand.
    For releasing from the bed I print petg at a lower temp. Usually 230 and it pops off fine on the textured plates for me.
    You can also use glue stick. I use hairspray too and it helps with adhesion but also allows it to pop off pretty easy

  • @Mordeth1324
    @Mordeth1324 2 месяца назад

    You can add glue, hairspray, and other such stuff to make PETG easier to remove from the bed. Prusa makes special beds for PETG not sure about Bambu. If you aren't in a rush you can skip all those extra layers and just let the PETG cool, you'll start to hear it cracking off the bed in an hour or so.

  • @unamanic
    @unamanic 2 месяца назад

    I don't use PETG on my textured PEI sheets if I can help it (and never on my smooth PEI), it has a tendency to bond too well. If I have to print it, I do it on the X1C's Engineering plate with a coating of Magigoo to serve as a release agent. Glue stick will do the same job for PETG on PEI.
    Side note, I don't print much PETG anymore. I've switched to glass filled ABS for prints that need to be durable/heat resistant. It's AMS compatible (according to Bambu) without much warping and very good dimensional stability.

    I have had the same issue with PETG on my A1. Parts themselves usually come off fine after the plate cools. But any supports seem to stick way too well. The only way I have been able to get them off is to heat the bed up to 100 C. Then I can usually scrape the supports off.

    for petg - aquanet hairspray. I like better than glue stick. glue globs up. I spray a little bit and rub onto build surface until i feel a little bit of drag with the papertowel. give that a whirl, just don't spray hairspray with the build plate still on your printer. Pick up and move away from printers you don't want the sticky stuff on your printer.

    Use the Engineering plate for PETG if you have one. This is the best plate for this purpose. Nice adhesion and easy detach after it cooled. No glue stick, hairspray or other releasing agents needed - just use a clean plate washed with some laundry detergent. Set plate temperature 70C for the first layer and 80C for other layers. It's a shame Bambu no longer sell these plates...

  • @JakobDam

    Kingroon is great - I bought it initially just as a cheap filament to make my large (and filament requiring) sturdy tools drawers. And imagine my surprise, when I saw that it beat everything else I have. Spectrum, 3DE, Bambu Lab, Anycubic... all print worse than Kingroon, and as people who know Bambu Lab PLA filament know, it's definitely very good - but Kingroon is better. At around 60% the price!

  • @lancepearson8832
    @lancepearson8832 Месяц назад

    Rainbow filament is a few meters of one color, then afew of the next color, etc. If you want a good range of the colors like the big pumpkin had, you have to print a few of the smaller size pumkins at once to use enough of the filament to get the next color change. They usually tell you how many meters between changes, so you can slice a plate and look at how many meters it will use, then divie by the amount of filament before a color change, to see how many colors you will get in the print. You can find rapid color change filament for smaller items.

    The only Kingroon I have used is their tri colors....they are pretty sweet. The ONLY problem I have had is that the spools almost always seem to be broken when I get them. I have read of others having the same problem. You need to check out their blue/red/green, it is pretty awesome. I got a roll of the black/blue/purple that I think will be even more awesome, though I haven't tried it yet.
    I haven't tried this yet either (I will eventually), but you can use PLA as support for PETG (and vice versa I believe) and it supposedly breaks right off since the 2 materials don't bond to each other. There is a wiper mod I plan to make that uses this configuration.

I've used PLA as support for PETG once before and the only reason I didn't for this was because the PETG was loaded into one of the single color printers and I was too lazy to unload it haha. Oh well.

      Could use glue stick too. It helps stuff stick better, but it also helps stuff not stick too much ☺️

    17:00 can you use a glue stick it tends to help release after cooling down for PLA
