Note also that the Anycubic Ultrabase is fantastic; we print PEEK on it with a 95C bed.by Davo3 - Polymer Working Group
Sorry, Philipp, I haven't checked in in a while. We were using an 80C bed with a chamber at close to 55C as we could get it (but at least ~40C). We now have a program to create a spiral pad of PEEK (better than a brim, with only one start and stop) and then G54 offset the Z by one layer thickness, then start the standard gcode. This removes the need to align and print from a second head for ABSby Davo3 - Polymer Working Group
Hi. At Hyrel, we have six axis compatibility built in to all Hydra models, so the A, B and/or C axes can be assigned as needed. The video linked above uses the A axis for rotation. This video shows how to install a fourth axis if you want to add one later: This video shows five axis movement; I apologize for the enthusiasm of the camera operator.by Davo3 - Slic3r

Actually, we found that the PEEK prints great when you first print a one layer disk of ABS.by Davo3 - Polymer Working Group

If local folks would like a tour of our Hyrel 3D headquarters in Norcross, PM me and we can set up a field trip for you. Even though our printers are not open source, we'd be happy to show you what we do and offer advice on challenges you may be dealing with.by Davo3 - Atlanta, Georgia RepRap User Group
Quotecristian The most expensive plastic vase I have ever seen. I have a short sample of PEEK filament, I am looking forward to trying it. Does the extrusion work well? Did you notice any issues, such as delamination, filament break, slipping, ...? Haha, agreed. Yet, we test each head, so... cost of doing business. The extrusion works great. The PEEK bonds very well on a polycarbonate sheet -by Davo3 - Polymer Working Group
We printed this spiral vase in PEEK today on our Hyrel 3D System 30M with the MK1-350 print head, which prints at up to 400C and also prints with polycarbonate. That's the MK1-350 above the vase.by Davo3 - Polymer Working Group
