colorFabb Co-Polyesters 3D Printer Filament
Features and Benefits of colorFabb Co-Polyester Filaments
colorFabb_HT
One of colorFabb_HT’s biggest asset is its elevated heat resistance temperature of 100°C. That means your co-polyester creations can finally withstand heat without deforming. This opens up new areas in which 3D printed applications can be successfully applied.
- Based on Eastman’s signature Tritan™ copolyester technology, colorFabb_HT is made with Amphora HT5300
- Low-odor and styrene-free material
- Excellent durability, toughness and high temperature resistance
- Diameter tolerance: ± 0.1 mm
- Density: 1.18 g/cm3
- Glass transition temperature: 100°C
colorFabb_XT
colorFabb_XT is the go-to, engineering-grade 3D printer filament that makes strong and durable prints for everyday life. It’s FDA food contact compliant and has a BPA-free formulation.
- Made with Eastman Chemical Company Amphora AM1800 3D Polymer.
- Features high strength, toughness, odor neutral processing and improved temperature resistance
- Styrene-free formulation, FDA food contact compliance and BPA-free formulation
- Diameter tolerance: ± 0.05 mm
- Density: 1.27 g/cm3
- Glass transition temperature: 75°C
nGen
nGen is a true all-round material suitable for most day-to-day 3D printing activities. At the core of its reliability is the special chemical make-up of the Eastman Amphora™ AM3300 3D polymer, which results in good melt stability. nGen filament is more workable at a wider breadth of temperatures, producing reliable results and resulting in less waste.
- Made with Eastman Amphora™ AM3300 3D polymer
- Advanced overhang ability, excellent looks, and large printing temperature range for durable and useful items
- Diameter tolerance: ± 0.05 mm
- Density: 1.20 g/cm3
- Glass transition temperature: 85°C
nGen_FLEX
nGen_FLEX is best described as a semi-flexible material, just the right amount of flex and still capable of being fed through a Bowden tube and printed at regular PLA speeds. Developed with Eastman Chemical Company, the material mixes well with other Amphora-grade materials to truly form a dual extruded model.
- Semi-flexible material allowing users to print at regular speeds.
- Temperature resistant to 125°C so 3D printed objects can be steam-sterilized at 121°C
- Shore hardness: 95A
- Diameter tolerance: ± 0.1 mm
- Density: 1.13 g/cm3
PETG Economy
PETG Economy is a 3D printer filament developed for users who need functionality and quality in bulk. PETG Economy works on many printers that handle other PETG brands as well with standard settings.
- Print a large volume of functional parts without breaking the bank
- High-quality prints with an astonishing finish
- Diameter tolerance: ± 0.1 mm
- Density: 1.28 g/cm3
- Glass transition temperature: 70°C
Print Guidelines
colorFabb_HT
Extruder Temperature
- 250°C to 280°C
Platform Temperature
- 100°C to 120°C
Print Speed
- 30-50 mm/sec
Build Platform
- You’ll get best results on a heated build platform.
colorFabb_XT
Extruder Temperature
- 240°C to 260°C
Platform Temperature
- 60°C to 70°C
Print Speed
- 40-70 mm/sec
nGen
Extruder Temperature
- 220°C – 240°C
Platform Temperature
- 75 to 85°C
Print Speed
- 40-70 mm/sec
Cooling Fan
- Printing on a cold bed is possible but you’ll need some adhesion tools to minimize warping.
nGen_FLEX
Extruder Temperature
- 240°C to 260°C
Platform Temperature
- 80°C plus buildplate
Print Speed
- 40-60 mm/sec
Cooling Fan
- Make sure the distance between the nozzle and buildplate is not too close. The first layer should not be squeezed too much.
PETG Economy
Extruder Temperature
- 220°C to 240°C
Platform Temperature
- 75°C to 85°C
Print Speed
- 40-70 mm/sec
Cooling Fan
- 75/100% fan cooling for best aesthetics, best performance on overhangs and small details. For best mechanical performance and optimal layer adhesion, try printing with the least amount of cooling needed.
