Printing with CarbonX™ PEEK+CF10

PEEK has a melt temperature (Tm) of 343°C, therefore, you will need an all-metal extruder capable of reaching (and holding) temps upwards of 400°C or more depending on your specific printer. Every printer, slicer, and printing environment is different and you will need to tinker to find a process which works for you. One of the more difficult aspects of printing with PEEK was getting it to stick to the build plate.

Please note: PEEK+CF10 has a tendency to stick to metal (PEEK loves metal).  Make sure to purge out your extruder completely before it cools down or you run the risk permanent clogs. Seriously, we know this first hand.
