3dprinters:heat

This is an old revision of the document!


How do I print structural things (cup holder, pin, etc.) for the inside or outside of a car?

  • standard PLA is out: heat sensitive
  • there's ePLA and PLA+ and other special PLA that claims to be more heat sensitive. Reviews are sketch and brands unrecognized
  • ABS would require printer modifications
  • PETG might be a reasonable compromise?

Whatever material used, it seems the annealing process will be important
