How to Optimize Your Printing
Based on the properties of TPU 85A, it’s strongly recommended to consider the following tips to realize best performance:
1. Dry Your Filament

Drying Condition:
Blast Drying Oven: 70 °C, 8h
X1 Series Heatbed: 90 °C, 16h
2. Slow Down the Printing Speed
The speed should be no more than 80 mm/s to minimize the possibility of clogging and realize ideal printing results.
3. Use a hardened steel or stainless steel nozzle to avoid nozzle abrasion.
4. Seal with desiccant to prevent moisture and achieve ideal printing results.
5. Other Settings
