How Much do FDM Filaments Shrink
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 июн 2024
- This Video will test how much following filaments shrink:
BASF Ultrafuse ABS Fusion+
FormFutura TitanX
BASF Ultrafuse ASA
FormFutura ApolloX
Print settings:
0.4mm nozzle
0.2mm layer height
4 perimeters
40% grid infill
6 top / 6 bottom solid layers
*But I noticed no difference in shrinkage when printing with 2 perimeters and 20% infill

Great topic, thanks 👍
Great video
Thank you 🙏
SUPER video thanks a lot I usually print from PETG rarely from PLA. I don't have a covered printer so I've never printed from ABS / ASA I'm afraid I'd be destined to fail :) but maybe one day I'll commit :)
Thank you for your kind words sir. Im a big fan of PETG myself and still looking for best one out there but ABS+ and ASA+ are safe to print without enclosure, I’m quite confident. If you pause video where I’m introducing filaments and zoom in on spools there are indications from manufacturer. Particularly FormFutura’s Apollox (ASA+, that prints at lower bed/nozzle temp than some PETG) and TitanX (ABS+). But the only reason why you would really need to use these two filaments (In my opinion) is either requirement for higher temperature tolerance or for easier sanding. Otherwise there are tons of PLA/PETG’s with enhanced features. Also. FormFutura sells their filaments at 250g small spools, which are cheap to try out, so together with 3DLAC (or equivalent) adhesive there is definitely high success rate. But to successfully print O.G. ASA/ABS is another matter where one would not only need enclosure but an actively heated enclosure of ~60C, as I didnt manage to print them without warping even using fixing agents with ~36-40C inside of an enclosure. Of course I could try with a tall skirt all around the part, but chances would still be low printing big parts.
Thank you for the Tests,
Im missing some print settings, can you add This to the video description? Thanks

Hello and thanks for watching the video and your question. To be most accurate determining shrinkage it would be best to print shrinkage calibrators using same settings one would use for intended 3d prints so it will slightly wary per case, but my settings were: 0.4 nozzle, 0.2mm layer height, I use 4 perimeters with 40% grid infill, 6 top and 6 bottom layers. But…I also tested 0.4 nozzle, 0.2mm layer height with 2 perimeters at 20% grid infill and noticed no difference in shrinkage. For ambient temperature within enclosure its always ~32-36C. If you pause video in the results section you can see what bed and nozzle temperatures I used.
