HOW TO START PRINTING WITH FILAFLEX?

We recommend you that you first read the following article written by Gyrobot.

If you don´t have the new Recreus extruder or your hotend is not optimized with a PTFE liner inside. Please follow these recommendations.

• Print speed 20mm/S
• Print temperature (240 °C)
• None retractions or low distance (1mm retraction distance and 30mm/s speed)
• Increase the extruder flow if your plastic melt flow is not constant.(105-115%)
• Decrease the pressure of the idler bearing of your extruder in order to avoid filament clogging between the extruder gear and bearing.
