How do you print with BRIDGE without (Angel Hair)

Post by ZionPhil »

What is the secret to printing with the BRIDGE material without getting a lot of stringing. *NOTE* I am Air Struding

Retraction Settings for ABS (They are working perfect for ABS)

Try backing off the temp a bit.

Agreed, the lower the temperature the less the strings, I'm currently printing it at 230, and if the stuff was actually in spec diameter wise I could probably print it at 210.

Yes, I've been printing with it a lot recently, my comment applies directly to printing with it.

Increase the speed of your retraction as well.
Mine is at 60, that helps create a suction on the nozzle when it retracts.

Thanks guys. I will try dropping 2 degrees and up my retraction speed from 35mm/sec to 60mm/sec
