How to set correct temps?
Hi everybody,
I have a headbanger (Prusa XL) and Sunlu filament. There is a label:
It says:
Print Temp 195-205°C 50 - 100 mm/s Print Temp 205-220°C 100 - 200 mm/s
I'm confused because it's lenght (mm) , not volume (mm^3). So how should I set the temperature in PrusaSlicer properly? Should I use formula? If so which one? And which values of Printers > Machine Limits should I take for calculations? Maximum feedrate? If so, should I calculate the diagonal speed (since it could travel x and y at 140mm/s each)?
Are there useful online calculator or even database with combinations of printers and filaments with recommendations for PrusaSlicer settings?
Or should I just enter 220°C and that is it?
Best Regards
Floh
RE: How to set correct temps?
It’s not volume or length its speed. So one is recommended temps when printing at up to 100mm a second speeds and the second is when printing at higher speeds such as 200mm a second.
Faster speeds require hotter temps to get the throughput. You should always test for your particular machine/filament combo anyway.
