colorFabb's Lightweight PLA (LW-PLA) becomes foamy and less dense at higher nozzle temperatures. To get the correct flow, some initial calibration is required.
Based on colorFabb's instructional page, these nine cubes are printed from 200 to 280˚C using the following conditions:
- Print speed: 25mm/s
- Layer height: 0.2mm
- Nozzle diameter: 0.4mm brass
- Part cooling: off
- Bed temperature: 60˚C
- Linear advance/pressure advance: off
This single line of custom Gcode is applied before each object is printed:
M109 S{temperature[0]+ (current_object_idx*10)}
IMPORTANT: the cubes are printed sequentially, but the order is not what you would expect. Please check the 3MF file and slice it to determine the correct order.
