Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why NYLON PA12? It offers an excellent balance of strength, flexibility, chemical and abrasion resistance – perfect for functional end-use parts.
Does Nylon need a heated bed and enclosure? Yes, both are recommended for optimal adhesion and minimal warping.
Do I need to dry Nylon? Yes. Nylon is hygroscopic – drying before printing significantly improves print quality.
