I appreciate the work you put into this. Very concise presentation of complex issues and your voice is comfortable to listen to. I just got my first Ender Neo and ran a roll of PLA and a half roll of PetG through it so far working on a prototype of an invention. Thanks.

Thought I'd leave a message here because of how helpful your PETG videos have been. I've been printing with PETG for a couple of years now and have never had particularly wonderful prints, always with stringing and blobs despite drying filament (and having dry boxes). After following the same steps you had taken I'm now printing beautiful PETG prints with only extremely thin stringing (like spiderweb thin) which is passable for me personally as that's pretty easy to remove with a heat gun. Thank you for the videos!! You rock!!

Thanks for this video Daniel. I appreciate how you broke the problem down to individual variables and optimized each.

Awesome video. Never saw anyone walk us through the entire struggle. This is very helpful thank you

Thank you! You're the first person i've seen who really elaborates on experiments rather than giving basic advices. Will try some of that on my Dreamer. Unfortunately, Dreamers have only one cooling choice: 100% or none (as well as several other lacks) but your video is enough to get started. Also, never heard of Superslicer, shall give it a go.

wow, what a crusade to get that working!! Congrats on the dedication, impressive

Thanks for sharing, great info. I'm going to try PETG for the first time today

I have been trying to learn PETG (kinda hard not to play with all the different material options hahahahah) I've been having grief with flashprint and I might have to give superslicer a shot Between this and your other videos, your advice has been so helpful setting up my profiles properly Especially with PETG - but across the board great work man So glad the algorithm recommended you - underrated as hell

Thanks for the informative video. I've been 3D printing since we had to build our own 3D printers because they weren't consumer items, but I've only recently started to print in PETG. As the video was wrapping up I was heading to the comments section to suggest that you put your optimized settings in the video description but that's where the video showed the slicer settings across many screens so we can pause the video and see all of the slicer settings.

Hi daniel, I've commented on another video of yours but just wanted to reiterate the content you're producing for the adventurer 4 is second to none. Ordering a second one is a pretty extreme form of printer tuning lol

love your channel keep up the good videos!

I've had PETG get wet on me in a single (rainy) day. Ended up getting a drybox, which has helped immensely.

We have tested hundreds of materials every year for consistency in color, extrusion, moisture, tolerance, etc.. The three manufacturers that have stood out and given the most consistent results are direct purchases from Prusament, 3DXtech, and Atomic Filament.

You obviously didn’t test 3D-fuel if Atomic is on that list.

Thanks you solve som of my problems the temp was a BIG improvement

Petg is very sensitive to ambient air temp in around the fan intake. Fan speed should be reduced in colder rooms. Also the when printing higher prints off the hot build plate the intake air gets colder so the cooling increases at the same fan speed. So getting a warm stable air temp around the printer is a good starting point.

Ordered my first spool of PETG today and will be tweaking my printer so I can print a helmet chin mount for my GoPro. I have an Ender 3 Pro, Microswiss Direct drive, MS full metal hot end 4.2.2 board, BLT etc. Normally runs fine but I'm thinking I'm in for a bit of a learning curve lol

@@justmakeitdaniel7667 Ahh that makes sense haha 1 why i haven't seen it and 2 why you're already so good lol

The key to printing PETG is to get your flow rate absolutely dialled in. To do this you need to calibrate your esteps or rotational distance if you use Klipper. Then you need to print a single wall hollow cube and compare the wall thickness to the one requested in your slicer. Walls to thick, over extrusion, reduce your flow rate. To thin, then it's the opposite. Look up teaching techs guide for printer tuning on this. Flow rate will need to be tuned for each roll of filament due to variations in diameter between rolls effecting extrusion volume. Estep and flow rate calibration is critical for PETG as over extrusion is what causes the filament to build up on the nozzle over time causing stinging, layer shifts and small features failing due to the build up of filament on the nozzle interfering with the extrusion path. After that it's a matter of tuning your retraction and your part cooling relative to the print speed. Getting your cooling right is also very important. To low and you make PETG more prone to string. To high and as the extrusion is layed down it will have a whitish haze. It should be glossy. Translucent PETG is good for tuning cooling as it looses it's translucency with over cooling. In my experience coasting made things worse and I just used wipe. I also use S3d. You should also tune your bridge setting as this will make a huge difference to your overhangs. I think mine are set to 10mm3 area, 2.00 expansion, 95% flow, 100% speed. This works well but could probably be improved upon. PETG has poor bridging properties so you need to set your bridge trigger low which is why mine is at 10mm3. Useful for 1st layer top with low infill percentages. I might just upload my S3d profile so you can compare. Way to much to type here.

Ashley … I must commend you .. you know your stuff , the one thing that petg adds to its complexity is at certain temperatures it operates in an amorphous state of flow and at higher temps it flips to a crystalline state if flow .. amorphous state of flow is like syrup crystalline is like water . Rheology , the study of plastic flow is a topic that is widely known in the injection molding industry which I suspect you may know about ..

I followed the same guide it was very good. However, the extrusion amount (flow in cura) I adjusted this to have the right thickness of a single wall that my slicer says should be the output.. after that adjustment (which went from 100% to 86) found my first layer to have gaps, a sign of under extrusion again. & yes my z offset has been tuned before all these. More tinkering I’m guessing.

@@DSPrints_ yeah cura is a funny one. I spent a couple of days attempting to tune petg in cura on 2 seperate occasion and I could never get a result like in S3D. Could not tune out stringing or improper printing of small feature. Cura has some things going on behind the curtain that prevent you having full control over what is happening I suspect. I use super slicer now. Haven't printed petg with it. Haven't printed petg for a while actually. Not since I built my voron 2.4 and am able to reliably print ABS.

Been running Anycubic Mega X for size and if you add a dual gear or mod them they are great cheap printers. I have clear petg dialed for large items and thin wall settings at 233c The fast way to test is use support lines holding a hangmans post the single layer support is max transparency on petg so adjust as it builds with heat settings watching the walls..

Super well put together video. I love finding these types of tests where someone does everything. I just picked up the Adventurer 5M a month or so ago. Loving it so far, but stock settings for PETG are not working. I'm going to try a few of these things. I found with PLA, I needed 240F, probably because the thing moves so fast. Not sure if you've picked up an AD5M, but would highly recommend it. Would love to see your analysis on some filaments with that machine. Subscribed !!

i managed to print a 3d benchy in 30 minutes in petg without stringing. I didnt want to sacrifice speed so the trick i found was to change the order in which the inner/outer layers get printed as well as the outer wall speed. I also use the spiral manoeuvre and minimal z hop as a means to "clean" or "wipe" the extruder. Low printing temperature at 220 and part cooling fan.

I had a similar issue with a bcn3d sigma r19, even though it was a £2500 printer sometimes a lemon gets through qc.. I swear my £350 cr10 was more reliable. One thing I found out is on bowden printers I never use z hop (cura & super slicer) as it wipes that crud off the nozzle, when you get coasting, retraction and wipe tuned.

I had terrible stringer with PLA recently. Had never happened before but I don't use my Ender 3D clone very often. I ended up replacing the hot end. 1,000% better instantly. The old OE hot end was literally cooked. It stank from burnt PLA, and must have had issue hanging the filament. I spent 3 nights doing many temperature, and settings changes trying to figure out why it was printing so bad, but sometimes it's just as simple as changing a printer part, like a nozzle, or hot end, or extruder.

In the temperature section you talk about that odd diagonal blobs that is being produced. And then you moved onto the retraction settings. Was that the cure to removing that diagonal blob stairway?

I had the same issue with youe black benches brealing appsrt at the top My fix was zhop and a cold pull

Just for another point of reference. I have printed about 50 spools of PETG filament over the past two years on two different printers. Switching between whichever was cheapest at the time between Overture, Polymaker, Duramic, Inland and eSun. Of those, eSun seemed to absorb the most moisture. But all have worked well for me once I had my printer working properly. I wouldn't personally buy anything cheaper than those brands and I really didn't like the Matterhackers Build Series PETG. For me the biggest differences were ditching the PTFE lined Creality clone hotend with a bowden tube and moving to a direct drive and an all metal hotend. And second, making absolutely sure my first layer was good, not too close and not too far. Too close and you end up with lots of blobs and problems with later layers because of the pressure build up in the nozzle. Also, I use 100% fan after the first layer.

I also got good results installing the Creality Sprite Pro direct drive head to my Ender 3 Pro. Now the only thing that seems to matter when printing PETG is keeping my retraction under 1mm so it doesn't pull the filament out of the melt zone.

Cripes dude, you really did good work here, and thanks! I hate overture petg and probably wont buy any other filament they make because it is such hot trash imo. I think ABS is the better filament and much easier to print quality parts. I'd rather buy a $50 enclosure than 3 $30 spools and spending days getting it right

Thanks for sharing all this work! I'm currently printing my first PETG object, a BEN (floating benchmark, with more detail) and it's going very well so far. Printing with Duramic Premium PETG (white) on my Ender 3 V2, which is stock except Capricorn bowden tube. Hot end at 240C (don't want to overheat my bowden) and bed at 70C with blue painters tape on the printing surface, as I heard PETG can tear up the bed. I set up a custom material because the "Creality Slicer" (repackaged Cura I believe?) doesn't have Duramic products yet, no fan for first 0.7mm and then 20% fan after. I checked during the print and the Ender said it was doing 51% fan so I tuned it down to 25% and it seems to be doing a bit cleaner than when it was at 51% but that was okay too. (this was a bit of a mistake on my part, see edit) Not sure if any of this info helps, I wonder if PETG prints better with a very short bowden, as mine is like maybe 18cm, no where near your 50cm, but I figured I would share my experience so far. Still doing a lot of learning myself. 😊 Edited to say my BEN turned out pretty great, the details weren't as clean as PLA+ but I realized later that in the "tuning" on the printer interface the fan speed works on a 0-255 scale, so 51 was 20%, and when I dialed it in to what I thought was 25% I was changing it to 25/255 or 10%. I also realized that I never had the option visible in my slicer that allows for a different initial layer temp, so I set that up for my second PETG print which is currently underway. So I am now doing ZERO fan for the first 0.7mm and then 25% or 61/255 for the rest of my print. Hoping this can clean up the details a little as 10% was a bit low I feel. I also just noticed that I forgot to mention my print speed before, which is set to 50mm/s print.

Every 3d printers are not create equal so your best setting may not be my best setting but it is a good start.

Question, My ender3 has a sprite direct drive extruder, how much would coasting effect my prints with petg?

I set the slicer to print the perimeter first.

when details are printed with Petg. This kicks the FAN on and this cools your petg ENOUGH to not let the next layer stick to the lower layer and it starts balling up and then you get the blobs and the extruder hitting the previous layer.....

Are you accounting for the moisture content of your filament? If not, that is an uncontrolled variable that could explain the variance between brands of filament. One roll is likely more dry than the other. It just works that way even in factory sealed bags. PETG does absorb water and it really effects print quality. Get a filament dryer capable of hitting 70C and dry all filament before and during testing.

Fine tuning is everything, yet sometimes i wonder what´s going on here. I have a Sidewinder X2 and use Redline PETG which costs about 27 € per Kilo. I never had bad stringing or anything that many people frequently experience. I calibrated my printer once and besides some tweaks i had to make due to some elephant footing which i resolved with initial fan speeds and bed heating adjustments i never had problems. After some cubes i went straight to a 3 day Helmet Print, no problems, minimal stringing on the inside because i tried to save as much material as possible by using minimal supports. The rest was near perfect. Sometimes i just think some 3D printers are outright worse than others. And for the mere 400 bucks the X2 cost me it is a beast. I am even still on my first nozzle. Just don´t cheap out on your filament and slow is always better.

Another thing that boggles my mind is that you had to buy another printer. It´s a shame on the design of the printer that you couldn´t tune the motors and rolls yourself. On the X2 i can tune every axis myself by loosening the screws and tuning everything so the mechanics of the hardware and the software actually synch up. It´s not just about tuning your slicer settings, you have to tune the actual printer. Mechanics and Software have to work hand in hand here. The video is great i am just sad you had to spend 1300 bucks twice to achieve what i had with 400 bucks. But hey it´s been a year and the hobby is evolving every day! :D

I dont know about their PETG but Overture and Duramic have the EXACT PLA formula. There is absolutely no difference so I would suspect it would be the same for their PETG. I can actually print really well with Overture because it is one of the few brands that can give you a matte finish while maintaining strength and durability but from everyone's complaints I am going to try hatchbox and polymaker tomorrow to see if life can get easier. I do know that turning my fans completely off and printing at 220 @60mms with only a .8mm retraction (direct drive) 96% flow gives a perfect wall. Do note that over retracting can cause serious clogs if you are not careful.

There exists exactly ONE PLA supplier worldwide, who ships just several types of pellets, of which not many are suitable for 3D printing to begin with. Maybe two suppliers now, not sure. So anyway for the longest time all PLA filaments being identical (save for masterbatch usage) was just the way things was, and even now there isn't much variety. But there are a lot of chemical companies which synthesize PETG and they do tend to have their own unique ideas on how to do the thing. PET is among the most used plastics in the world and the process is trivially modified. PLA though comes exclusively from biomedical supply chain.

So frustrating. I have an Ender 3 Pro with the glass bed and direct drive upgrades. I print some things just fine if they are solid. Did the retraction/stringing towers and they come out perfect. But anything in a real print with small gaps, and it's always a stringy mess. I've raised and lowered temp. I've increased retraction distance up to 15 and decreased down to 1. Increased retraction speed all the way to 80. Increased speed up to 70 and decreased down to 20. Turned off z hop. Reduced flow. Increased travel speed all the way to 200. And all combinations I can imagine. What puzzles me is that none of these -- not one variation -- results in any difference whatsoever. Stringy mess. Any ideas?

I've gotten all the parts I need from PETG now anyway, so I might just stick with PLA and ASA from here on.

Truth be told, I really don't care about stringing so I'm just pushing material as fast as the printer can push, but well, that's a massive speed increase with Aliexpress versions of parts, I'm not running anything weird exotic... Could the material be that much different? Could your nozzle be on the way out? I did have horrible clogs all the time when mine was going away. Extruder is a titan clone (Aliexpress cheapest I can find again), direct drive. The heater cartridge is a 40w one tho at least. so maybe that's significant? Single 5015 blower but the duct blows both sides, 40% fan speed.

he he ok bro

buy a new printer every time there's an issue, got it.

So maybe this video should be called printing PETG as fast as possible... I'm here to figure out how to get the best quality...not the fastest print speed.... Thanks anyway.

Goes debug a material, ends up buying a new printer. Your process is not good dude.

Horrible Quality Expensive Printer For Nothing. Amén.

Why not go direct drive?
