Additional Recommendations

* Based on 0.4 mm nozzle and Simplify 3D v.4.0. Printing conditions may vary with different nozzle diameters.

  • When printing with PolyLite™ PC, it is recommended to use an enclosure. For large parts, it is recommended to use a heated chamber.
  • It is recommended to anneal the printed part right after the printing process to release the residual internal stress. Annealing settings: 90°C for 2h.
