Temperature Chart

From RepRap
Jump to: navigation, search

A table for predicting the temperature trends for a given configuration, versus material & color.

Use the "standard" thermistor placement from your hotend's instructions.

If possible, calibrate your thermistor or double check with another method of measuring (hard to do with many hotends).

If your hotend has other configurations or options specify which one(s) you used.

Be as specific as possible in identifying your material, at the very least specify the provider if not a specific blend number. For instance, Ultimachine provides a datasheet for 4043D PLA, but does not specify if this applies to all their PLA, while ABS is available in a huge assortment of blends, often not identified by anything but the name of the source.
