Where it shines

Tightest diameter tolerances on the market (±0.02mm); finishes look photographic.

Common use cases: prototyping, decor, fine-detail.

Where it falls short

Premium-priced; you pay for the QC.

Print profile starting point

  • Nozzle temp: start at 225°C and tune ±5°C for surface finish.
  • Bed temp: 50°C is usually enough for adhesion; go up toward 60°C if first layer struggles.
