Suggested PETG settings?
Posted: Thu Oct 01, 2020 6:04 pm
Hello all,
I've been printing with PETG with mixed success.I can get pretty good parts, but always with significant stringing. I've tried a variety of extruder heat settings and retraction speeds as well as the suggested settings from the filament maker and the default settings that the Cura slicer has for PETG with a Rostock MAX v3 (mine is a V4). I can work around the problem by spiralizing my parts but that only works for certain things since you're limited to a single layer shell.
Does anyone out there have printer settings that they like to use with Cura and a Rostock MAX v4 for PETG that work well and minimize stringing?
