Topic: Temps settings for extruding OSP from printer

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to know what print temps your running with
when using filastruder filament using OSP pellets?

Reason I'm asking is I'm going to purchase a temp mod for my Afinia and I want to get an idea
as to what temps I need before I purchase the item.

Powder coated steel enclosure, 1/4" Surface grounded hardened aluminum plate, MK2A Heat bed, .200 Polished fused quartz plate, Machined quick change hot bed mount, E3D hot end, Ramps 1.4, DRV8825 stepper motor drivers

I print at 230C without issues, besides clogs (something something melt filter).

230C on most printers, 200C on Solidoodles. Just like most ABS out there. smile

Filastruder - the robust, inexpensive filament extruder
E3Dv6 All Metal Hotend - the premier 3D printing hotend

Re: Temps settings for extruding OSP from printer

I thought so but I was just checking since ysb mentioned he was printing OSP filament at 175 to 180
which is 205 to 210 and I thought that was a little low so I just wanted to verify

Not yet, I have two on the bench, but I'm currently purging before I install them.
