🖨️ 3D Printing Supplies: MG Chemicals Filament Spool Additive Manufacturing Products Review

This filament is extremely brittle even for PL and difficult to feed into the printer (lulzbot taz 4). When entering the extruder, it tears and rubs the feed mechanism for a moment, resulting in multiple mottled lines and printing problems (delamination between layers, rough surface). I was surprised when another MG Chemicals filament spool I bought was fine. Although the color is beautiful and strong.

This filament is unusually brittle even for PLA and has trouble feeding a ton into the printer (lulzbot mini 2). It breaks when it's fed into the extruder and then just rubs against the feed mechanism forever, resulting in blotchy lines, and then it's just "air pressure". Bought two rolls and just spent $40! Literally two BRAND NEW rolls won't print, can't even finish the bank. Changed to Hatchbox and Revain Basics, after that it worked fine without changing anything except the filaments.

Environment==========Ultimaker S5 with generic PLA profile in Ultimaker Cura 34 hours) print. Rating==========Dimensional accuracy maybe not the best. I would estimate somewhere between 0.03mm and 0.05mm; Print layers are obvious without closer inspection. The adhesion of the layers is good, the adhesion of the panels with PVA (glue stick) is optimal. It absorbs moisture faster than most PLAs, so I had to store mine in a heated dry box for the duration of the print. Failure to do so would…
