do the ads, you put to much effort into this channel to not earn what you can. I feel the brand comparison tests are highly important. Great job bothering to show us how the material shows up. ( and the " 2 holes" on the spool... What are these guys thinking, its a simple issue to correct and so annoying problem , I know its nit picky but still)
Again, we got a filaments test from an Engineer with PhD in engineering for free. The presentation of the video makes me remember my research assignment years ago. Thank you again for your work. You are amazing.
I really appreciate your work on these kind of videos. I do use your data to make choices in the filament that I buy. I’m sorry that these videos are not always that popular, but there is no other place you can go for this kind of comparison tests. Thank you!
I think these kind of videos are of worth for people either new to printing or the channel. Gives a quick shot for people looking to buy materials for a project, without having to spend a day going over individual filament reviews. Thanks you!
Igor, I’ve noticed that you’ve taken your videos to a new level lately! What happened? They have always been must-see, but now they are a treat to watch!
Great video Igor. I’m surprised how “early” all of the filaments were affected by heat. Most of my objects last until about 75°C but I’m typically printing with very high infill percentage (in the 40-60% range).
These are small test objects. But at least, I am using the same testing method (not only in this video), so the results are comparable with each other.
Best PETG is natural color petg, regardless of brand, without any additives (slightly milky, hard to buy), the more additives it has the worse it becomes. Completely clear PETG is NOT natural color, but it is closest to the natural from easy-to-buy ones.
Awesome video. One criteria that has not been properly explored is how layer thickness can considerably increase the strength of a print. Do you have a printer setup with a 1mm nozzle?
I have used eSun quite a bit and really like it. Although I now have a Microcenter not too far from my house, so I have been trying to purchase most of my filaments from them to help with buying and supporting from a local store. The in-house brand for MC is Inland filament.
Bought my first spool this weekend. TECBEARS bought it for 13 Euro's i think why not test it. Worked but i had layer adhesion problems. was at 230 or so but i am (still) using bowden with a "stock" hotend and brass nozzle. Think its the temp had cooling at 40% it smelled weird out of the packaging, but no smells after i dried it Could be my printer its an Ender 7 :PP lgx extruder and mosquito is on the way :P Just put ads in there my man, i think "a lot" of us 3d nerds use a "thingy" and don't see them :)
Interesting that Bambu had best layer adhesion, but also most deformation and melting. This definitely points to additives. Overall though, most are very similar and shows PETG is being made to proper standards for the most part. We often see much more differences with some other types of plastics where more additives are probably being added.
In reference to the beginning of this video; i wanted to say how much i appreciate you making this video and it helped improve my decision making going forward, i liked and subscribed and look forward to many more of your videos!!
Do the ads, you deserve it and just try to avoid biased results due to sponsors like Projectfarm does.. His channel is awesome because he refuses Sponsors
I love the format! I had no idea you had done it before. It's very surprising that your channel isn't more popular. Not having ads might be affecting the algorithm, as we know RUclips tends to prioritize monetized content. In my opinion, you should enable ads. I understand you're not doing it for the money, but reaching a wider audience would benefit everyone. Keep up the great work!
An idea for filament comparison could be for different transparent (I mean fully transparent, not "transparent red") filaments, even if the material type is different: PETG, PLA, PC, ABS. Which ones are clearer, easier to print, and so on.
Good idea. I think more useful would be same transparent from different brands. But probably for this I have to buy all those filaments (again). Average how much earn per video is 5-10$ :-( If I would have at least half of views like CNCkitchen... But somehow my videos are not recommended. Just for curiosity, have you seen this video? ruclips.net/video/_pPWvLizjRU/видео.htmlsi=n2M875OEIljS_zEq So big work and less than 2k views..
@@MyTechFun yes I watch almost all of them. I'm not sure about the reasons for the low views, have you tried contacting other creators from the field to share tips? But I think most of their income comes from sponsors anyway.
The bambulab PETG is discontinued as well. Considering it seemed to perform worst or one of the worst in most tests I guess there is a reason for it being disco tinued.
For me Bambulab PETG is ok mainly because is AMS compatible and I do not need to tinker settings. My first print was roughly a cylinder with 200mm diameter and 90mm height and it was great on 0.6mm nozzle
I enjoy your videos, watch almost all of them, and think you should enable ads. I’m subscribed but don’t click the bell on any channel I’m subscribed to. I print with PLA, PVB, PETG, ASA, TPU, and PC. When I choose the material to use for a given print I know that any filament I use of that type will be good enough for the print’s intended purpose. I watch your testing videos out of general curiosity but they do not inform my buying decisions. I don’t need the strongest/toughest filament of a particular type…I pick the specific filament based on aesthetics, what I have on hand, experience with a given manufacturer, and price knowing that the chosen filament will be good enough. This is probably a terrible analogy but that’s never stopped me before. 😆 To me filament is like shoelaces. Do I need to research the strongest shoelaces before buying? No, because any shoelace will be good enough to keep a shoe on my foot. I might watch a shoelace testing video out of curiosity or because it looked entertaining but not because I need the pinnacle of shoelace material science. My point is, extrapolating from a single data point (me), that your lower-than-desired view counts could be because few people need ultimate PETG (or whatever) performance. You’re an engineer and you’re doing what you do and you should keep doing that if you enjoy it. There are thousands of people who enjoy your videos (myself included) which is pretty cool IMO.
Yes, you are the only person doing consistent material reviews. I'd love to see comparisons between colored and uncolored filaments of the same type from the same maker.
Amazing video! Loved the graph shown during testing to help keep track of how well each one is doing. Love your channel. Such useful information! Great job :)!
VoxlePLA is pretty popular here in the US. Their PETG (white in my case) had to be printed at 270C (nozzle temp); when I asked the reason many in reddit said this was because PETG needs such temperatures and others said it was because they may use virgin raw materials instead of recycled. Both reasons didn’t make much sense to me. The one I tested was white, very white. The issues I had may have been due to a big load of TiO2 in the mix, who knows.
Another terrific video. Your work is honest and informative and just what we want. Sure enable ads, will still watch the videos because they are well worth it. ,keep going, there's no one else doing what you do so expertly.
There are 20€ PETG-CFs from Tinmorry and Eryone. Tinmorry say the Z impact is 11.94KG/m2. I tried the Tinmorry PETG-CF and found the layer adhesion really good @ 240C with a HF nozzle at 10mm3/s on my BLX1. Please could test them both?
I feel like there's atleast 3-4 channels that have this test made already, and the maker of the filament usually doesn't matter much for the end-user, price is usually the first consideration.. but it's fun content on your channel nonetheless!
What's up with the horrible interlayer adhesion strength of the Creality and eSun PETG in particular? Glad I bought Hatchbox on a whim--their PLA Max is really good, too.
My favorite PETG is still PLA+ 😅 It permanently creeps under (too much) load and withstands a little less heat, but is easier to print and often has better layer adhesion. If ABS wasn't such PITA with open printer, it might be my favorite PETG 😉
Please keep it up, pretty new to 3D printing so I did find your content a little intimidating but the more I watch your channel the more I learn and make better buying decisions.
If you use the same gcode, then you do not calibrate flow, right? In my experience slight under or over extrusion makes a huge difference for strength. So I think you should either calibrate each filament or use X1C with auto calibration.
This was interesting. And comparing items in with high control in excruciating detail is one of my favorite genres, can’t go wrong with this. Especially between brands. I’d say go ahead and enable ads, you can tell the amount of effort that goes into this.
I didn't find where you mentioned if both the tensile and layer adhesion tests were performed with 4x4 dimensions as per most of your testing (some testing you increased like the ASA testing)
I don't see where the sample dimension for the tensile and layer adhesion tests are mentioned. Most are tested with 4x4 but some such as ASA were increased in dimension?
I did not expect to see such huge differences in the layer adhesion. Have you ever seen such a big variance before, when comparing the same kind of polymer from different manufacturers?
Layer adhesion is very sensitive property. It can be ruined very easily with additives or with bad print settings. Take a look of this PLA comparison: ruclips.net/video/BbbquNH5NFA/видео.htmlsi=RTw2cjyQTRy2nH0Z
@@MyTechFun good question, me personally I'm in the beginning for using ABS / ASA I think good candidates for tasting: esun ABS+, Prusament ASA, greetech and Amazon basics if they sell abs/asa
It would be interesting to see the difference between a brands plus or pro petg or pla, seeing as there's no standard to what additives manufacturers include. There may be massive variance between brands claiming it's a "plus" over their original.
I already have these kind of comparisons (from one brand). Search the material testing playlist: ruclips.net/video/WRGQ1MBp30A/видео.html&ab_channel=MyTechFun
As someone who just last week got a first 3D printer (Bambu Lab X1C) this is really valuable information as I don't know much about filament brands yet. You really did an amazing and thorough job. It is much appreciated that you would put in so much effort without having (as you state) a lot of views. Thanks! 👏
That was a great comparison, I enjoy these the most. I'm surprised by how large the range was on layer adhesion results! Would it equalize at higher printing temperatures? I wonder.
Ok just watched this one, great video and I would appreciate this for more materials ofc :) maybe you could add Esun abs max, that one is the only one available next to their abs+
Very useful info. Thank you for this. I printed some parts in Creality ABS recently (for heat resist), but found layer adhesion abmismally poor. I reprinted the same parts in Polylite PETG just to check I wasn't going nuts, and those parts turned out much stronger in layer adhesion. Your tests shows me that maybe Creality adds something to their filaments to make it easier to print, but really affects layer adhesion. Anyway, it also shows me I should've bought Hatchbox or Eryone! haha. Anyway, I would be quite interested in the same test in ABS, since I would be then able to completely validate my own findings between Creality ABS and Polylite PETG for layer adhesion.
I very much like these kinds of comparison videos. Please do more of them, there are so many filament manufacturers out there and all kinds of marketing names for the same type of filament (like Basic, Pro, Plus, Meta etc. etc.) that it's hard to know what would be the best choice for me in a real life situation. Sure there are datasheets available from most manufacturers but I don't trust them. Who knows if they're accurate for each and every spool... BTW. Personally I would like to see a PCTG filament comparison. Filalab has some very affordable (circa 25€ per kg) PCTG, I bought some, and it really seems like a big improvement over PETG especially in layer adhesion, but is just as easy to print! I'm surprised it hasn't become more popular.
do the ads, you put to much effort into this channel to not earn what you can. I feel the brand comparison tests are highly important. Great job bothering to show us how the material shows up. ( and the " 2 holes" on the spool... What are these guys thinking, its a simple issue to correct and so annoying problem , I know its nit picky but still)
Yes it is worth it if you make such good content
It's not nitpicky at all. Manufacturing spools with more than one set of two holes is not hard or costly.
