Review on πŸ–¨οΈ TPU 3D Printer Filament by Amazon Basics by Ken Reed

Revainrating 5 out of 5

TPU requires some printer settings, but the result is great!

First of all a beautiful shade of red. Beautiful, strong and durable. For those who have a PRUSA MK3S or compatible device and are using a PRUSA slicer, you will need to make some adjustments to the extruder and belt tension. It requires fine tuning, and even then I'm not sure I'm fine, so I'm working on a TPU printer. Here are some of the settings that helped me a lot. Slicer settings with good results on the MK3S extruder: 2mm retraction 65mm/s retraction speed 35mm/s retraction speed No z-hop 80% wipe volumetric speed 1.5mm3/s print speed 20mm/s incl. Apart from that, this is a great TPU filament! Prints well, some things need to be removed but from what I've read it's a TPU print. I personally think it has a lot to do with my retraction settings. still working on it The line is a perfect 1.75mm according to my spot checks, winds well on the spool and is a very good quality material.

Pros
  • 3D printing filament
Cons
  • boring package
