Curious if anyone has been able to get good results with printing with NatureWorks 4043D (ala ProtoPasta, PLA Plus, HTPLA, Push Platic, etc.)? I found on Prusa's I had to swap the heatbreak with a standard e3d one (sprung for the titanium in my case) in order to print ProtoPasta reliably. Now it prints quite well but recently ran into similar issues with Push Plastic PLA. That stuff is _fantastic_ and so far their customer service has sailed *well* above my previous suppliers. I'm generally quite happy!
On the Prusa's at least. On my Voron 2.4 with SB2 and a Rapido v1 I am getting clogs. PP had some recommendations to try, mentioning in particular filament grinding is a possible culprit tied to long PTFE runs so I'm gonna look into that. I've gotten that pretty well tuned at this point I think but I can try to see if I can further improve it. I've had issues with both a CW2 and Galileo 2 extruder.
I just got the G2 working (and it works really well!) so hoping I don't need to swap that out but if I can print more reliably, I wouldn't be opposed to swapping out the Rapido for a known working config. I quite like it (more than the Revo since I can use plated nozzles) but this is a filament I'll want to print fairly regularly such that I gotta do what I gotta do.
I have thought also about upping the heatsink fan, though it's already using a 7k RPM fan (at least if the specs aren't lying).
Anyone have any idears?
