Ender 3 - Getting 300°C + Print Temperatures for Polycarbonate and Nylon Printing
Design Prototype Test
Why you should not buy knockoffs: https://youtu.be/iKhn5IcVvAg
Polycarbonate and Nylon are amazing plastics giving superior strength along with superior fatigue and temperature resistance. But most printers are not able to print with these materials. The Ender 3 suffers from this problem because of the Thermistor and PTFE tube in the stock hotend which limit the temperature to 260°C. In this video, we're going to fix that, and start printing Polycarbonate at 310°C!
