Does colorFabb XT-CF20 work with all 3D printers?The colorFabb testlab features a wide range of popular 3D printers. colorFabb continuously test their products on a range of 3D printers to check the quality of the materials produced and to develop exciting new materials. Due to the abrasive nature of carbon fibre, the material may accelerate the wear of the nozzle, in particular brass nozzles, much faster than unfilled filaments. Therefore it is recommended to use stainless steel or hardened copper alloy nozzles. What are the processing guidelines for colorFabb XT-CF20 filament? -
Recommended extruder temperature: 240°C - 260°C -
Recommended platform temperature: 60°C - 70°C -
Recommended print speed: 40 - 70 mm/s What is the diameter tolerance?colorFabb use laser measurement systems to check the diameter of their filament real time during production. It’s measured over 1000 times per second and helps guarantee that each spool of colorFabb 3D printing filament is produced within tolerance. colorFabb can guarantee 0.05mm +/- on both 2.85mm and 1.75mm colorFabb 3D printing filament. |

BUNDLE BUY: colorFabb XT-CF20 with E3D hardened steel nozzle
colorFabb XT-CF20 2.85mm is a speciality co-polyester based, carbon fibre composite 3D printing material. It consists of Eastman Amphora™ 3D polymer blended with 20% specially sourced carbon fibres, creating a high-stiffness 3D printing filament with a higher temperature resistance post print (80°C).
3D printing in colorFabb XT-CF20 creates a great black matt finish to your parts, ideal for engineering applications or prototypes requiring further testing or finishing.
Due to the abrasive nature of carbon fibre, the material may accelerate the wear of the nozzle, in particular brass nozzles, much faster than unfilled filaments. This pack provides a hardened steel nozzle to use with the XT-CF20.
Pack contains:
1x colorFabb XT-CF20 750g spool
1x E3D hardened steel 0.4mm nozzle
