Hi does anyone print in PETG?

I’m not in PETG but I can print for you?

I do offer a lot of materials (15+) of which some are similar to PETG. Taulman T-Glase and Colorfabb XT are nearly identical to PETG, I do also offer XT reinforced with 20% carbon fibres. Contact me by clicking on the icon below this comment. Kind regards, Marius Breuer

We can do PETG on our Raise3D printers, what can I do for you?

I have printed in PETG transparent, printed well and was quite clear at about 40% infill

I’ve done a little bit of testing with PETG, but not much. So far, the best complete PETG printing research that I’ve seen is this MakerGear post by Jules:

What do you think of PETG filament so far? Do you think this could be the next big filament material, or do you think we’re better off with PLA or something else?

What were your settings?

Hi,

My set-up and settings are:
Printing upon a glass bed with coating of PVA glue

Bed temp is 70 degrees C

Hot end Temp is 220 degrees C

Upon completion of print allow the print bed to cool down to ~30 degrees C before removing print, removal before this is very hard and might damage the print.

Hope that helps you out.

I see this is an old post but I will answer anyways.

I use a lulzbot mini with Esun PETG using CURA slicer.

Since my CURA does not have a PETG setting I change it to PLA then auto correct the following fields:

Print head temp:235

Print bed:80

Filament diameter: 3.0

And I print at about 50 speed with no issues and have never had a issue with it sticking to the bed. Just wipe with alcohol pre-print.

If anything I have issues getting the print off the bed.

I have tried painters tape with very little success. The heated be at 80 works perfect!!!
