PET-G+CF (poly(ethylene terephthalate) with addition of glycol and carbon fiber) is a material with increased strength designed for printing structural elements and moving parts of machines

Application: Industry, working elements.

The PET-G+CF filament by Rosa3D was designed for printing structural elements and moving parts of machines, where higher durability and heat resistance are required.

PET-G+CF printouts are characterised by negligible moulding shrinkage, they are odourless and feature very strong bonding between layers. The material has a graphite, matte surface and a smooth, almost satin, structure, and is relatively easy to print. Negligible moulding shrinkage allows for printing in an open device.

The PET-G+CF filament features a strong chemical resistance and the addition of carbon fibre enhances its mechanical and heat durability as well as its impact strength, which ensures universal application of this material.

Recommended printing parameters

• extrusion temperature 240-270°C
• bed temperature: 70-90 °C
• fan: 0-60%
• print speed: 60-80 mm/s

Filament does not require a heated bed or chamber. In case of problems with adhesion, we recommend the use of an adhesive agent. It is recommended to enable print cooling. Fan speed should be adjusted according to printer capabilities and geometry of the printed object.
