WHAT IS THE EFFECT OF HEATED CHAMBER?
ULTIMATE STRENGTH AND QUALITY
WITH 250°C HEATED CHAMBER
The optimum temperature for the heated chamber is Glass transition temperature (Tg) of the used polymer. The heated chamber is the most important feature when looking for the best result.Optimum chamber temperatures for some high-performance polymers:
- PPSU – 225°C ULTEM 1010 – 220°C
- ULTEM 9085 – 185°C
- PEKK-A – 160°C
WITH THE MINIFACTORY ULTRA 3D PRINTER
Printing chamber temperature is close/above polymers Tg:- GREAT layer adhesion HIGH mechanical strength
- LOW mechanical stress
- LOW warping / cracking
A COMPETING MANUFACTURER'S PRINTER
Printing chamber temperature is clearly below polymers Tg: - POOR layer adhesion
- MEDIUM mechanical strength
- HIGH mechanical stress
- HIGH warping / cracking
