Raise3D PPA GF

Description

A high-temperature composite filament for end-use applications

Raise3D Industrial PPA GF is a glass fiber reinforced composite filament material based on PPA (polyphthalamide or high-performance/high-temperature Nylon). PPA is distinguished from aliphatic polyamides (e.g.PA6) by higher melting point, glass transition temperatures (Tg), lower moisture absorption, and greater dimensional stability. The incorporation of short glass fibers further improves upon the properties of PPA matrix, which makes PPA GF printed parts promising for end-use applications in automotive, aerospace, electrical and electronics (E&E) industry.

Printing Guide

Recommended Print Settings

Nozzle temperature (°C) 280-320℃

Bed temperature (°C) 65-80℃

Layer height (mm) 0.1-0.25 mm

Printing speed (mm/s) 30-120 mm/s

Cooling fan OFF

Drying temperature (°C) 80-100°C for 4 to 6 hours

Printing Notifications:

Abrasion of the brass nozzle happens frequently when printing PPA GF. Using abrasion resistance nozzle, such as hardened steel and above grade nozzles, is highly recommended.
After the printing, it is recommended to anneal the model in the oven at 80-100°C for 4 to 8 hours and cool the room temperature naturally.

This filament is compatible with Raise3D Industrial PPA Support Filament.

Due to the higher fiber content of PPA filaments, when printing PPA CF and PPA GF, an extra wear-resistant nozzle and extrusion system are required for a consistent printing performance. The E2CF and the RMF500 are specially designed for printing high-performance fiber-reinforced composite filaments. As such, it is recommended to use the Raise3D Industrial PPA CF filament and PPA GF filament exclusively on the E2CF and the RMF500.
