Before you proceed, be aware of below things.ġ. Printing with TPU also requires more than with PLA. TPU filament offers many benefits for 3D printed parts, which are flexible, durable, resistant to chemicals and withstand up to 80℃ ambient temperature. TPU is an abbreviation for thermoplastic polyurethane, a flexible and abrasion resistant thermoplastic. To assist with build plate adhesion while printing ABS, never forget to select 'Brim' as 'Build Plate Adhesion Type'. Use 'Brim' to ensure build plate adhesionĪBS filament does not stick to build plate well. Make sure cooling is disabled to proceed.Ĥ. These greatly affect printing qualities with ABS filament. 20mm/s is recommended to print ABS on KP3S, while the retraction speed for PLA printing reaches 80mm/s.īlower fan near the nozzle produces temperature gradients and leads to temperature differences. But much lower retraction speed is needed for ABS printing. You can try these temps on other printers and adjust according to the result.įor retraction settings, the retraction distances for PLA and ABS printing are the same. It's tested that 240℃ for printing temperature, 250℃ for initial printing temperature, 100℃ for build plate temperature are suitable for ABS printing on KP3S. Set higher printing and bed temperaturesĬomparing with PLA, ABS filament needs much higher printing temperature to melt and higher build temperature.

Important parameters for ABS printing on KP3Sīuild Plate Temperature Initial Layer：100℃ġ. ABS filament doesn't stick well to print bed and tends to warp always use a glue stick and apply some glue (or ABS slurry) onto the print bed when print with ABS. ABS filament is sensitive to changing ambient temperature place your 3D printer inside an enclosure, and your 3D print with ABS will be more stable.ģ. ABS filament is hydroscopic always keep your ABS filament dry in a dry boxĢ. Tips for 3D print with ABSīefore printing with ABS filament, you should be aware of these things.ġ. ABS filament is more often used in prototyping and printing functional parts. PLA Cura Profile for Kingroon KP3SĬura profile for PLA filament to DOWNLOAD.ĪBS Cura Profile for Kingroon KP3S Basics about ABS filamentĪBS is an abbreviation for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, a material with great mechanical properties and higher temperature resistance. Now you already accessed to the basic Cura settings for your printer. Scroll to “Kingroon”, expand the section, and select Kingroon KP3S or Kingroon KP3. Preferences > Printers > Add Printer > Add a non-networked printer. You can access to the Cura profile through the following steps: The profile would cover key values in Cura settings for the print of the most common 3D print material PLA, ABS, and TPU filaments. In this article, we'll guide you through to work out the best Cura profile for our Kingroon KP3S 3D printer.
