RE: eSun ePA-CF, Carbon Fibre Slicer Profile.
@Bul
I recently did a few prints with this filament (first time i used it). It was on my XL with enclosure and 0.4 nozzle. The results were excellent. I printed an idler mod for my extruder with 0.15 layer and a cylindrical threaded box without supports. After reading this post i dried it for 14h on 80 degrees (maybe a bit overkill but ...) and printed it using the Prusament PA11 Cf as a base and altering the following
280 printing temp
65 degrees bed
1.1 Extrusion multiplier
2.5 retraction length
I dont have an image of the results but it was rigid, clean print with no stringing.

@tsamina thank You for sharing Your settings!
My spool will run out soon, so I'll try a new one and see the difference in the following weeks.
I re-measured my calibration cube(s) with a micrometer and a caliper. They have suitable single wall thickness with 0.9 extrusion multiplier.
The micrometer measures thicker walls most probably due to larger contact area. The caliper reading is ok, if I use 0.65 line widht with on 0.6mm nozzle. The walls are somewhat thicker than nominal if I set 0.6mm wall thickness. I assume it is good to calibrate the typical setting I use.
I tried to print my models again with slightly increased temp (265C with steel nozzle). These are 100% infill models. They are not that bad with the correctly set multiplier, but the walls are not too nice where many seams gather, and also on thinner walls.
