Short answer: Absolutely! As long as your printer does not have an E-PROM chip, rigid.ink will work with any 1.75, 2.85 and 3.0mm FDM and FFF 3D printer. My 3D printer manufacture recommends only using their filament – can I use rigid.ink? If this doesn’t work, try blue painters tape, Kapton tape or hairspray. If printing direct to glass, your best bet would be to use a good quality glue stick and a apply a thin even layer to your bed before printing. You’ll find your rigid.ink sticks well to most build surfaces. All other materials (including Flex PLA) require a heated bed to avoid warping during those first few layers. I don’t have a heated bed, is this a problem? Different printers print rigid.ink best at different settings, so don’t be afraid to experiment. Please allow for the fact that some 3d printers currently on the market don’t actually have very accurate thermostat readings and so some degree of adjustment is nearly always needed to get the best results when trying a new brand of filament. Our ABS works well from between 230-250☌, with a heated bed of 90C-95☌ ( no higher!). Heated bed is not necessary for our PLA, but you can use one at below 45☌. For example, our PLA extrudes best at around 180-185☌ depending on what printer you’re using. Generally, due to the pure nature and high grade of our raw materials your extruder setting wants to be a little lower than normal. This varies between materials, so please check the recommendations on the specific product page. What temperature should I print my rigid.ink? If however you need something a little harder wearing, and your printer has a heated bed – you might want to go for the ABS. Our PLA is significantly stronger than other brands, very easy to print with (heated bed not required) and long lasting. Short answer: Usually if you’re not sure, you’ll probably just want to go with PLA.
I’m a little confused, should I buy your PLA or ABS? If you really need something guaranteed next-day delivery inside the UK you can opt for this at checkout. For orders to Europe around 3-5 working days, and orders to USA/rest of world around 4-10 working days. UK orders only take 1-3 days in most cases. This means a lot of orders do arrive the next working day. We dispatch all orders same working day if ordered before 2:30pm (UK). We use a variety of fast couriers depending on what you’ve ordered.

Our standard (and free shipping, over £65) is pretty quick. Please just email us before you send it back though for instructions.
You could say our returns are about as hassle-free as a nice massage. If after you’ve adjusted your printer settings (as advised) you’re not happy with the filament for whatever reason, you can send it back. We’re so confident you’ll love your rigid.ink we have a relaxed 60-day returns policy. What does your 60-day guarantee actually mean? If you still can’t see what you’re looking for, please don’t hesitate to ask us. I'll be happy to provide any info needed.If you have any questions please send us an email at a question about rigid.ink? We’ve compiled the most common questions we get, and answered them here. In case we found a solution to this issue, the Prusa Slicer might become fully supported by 3DLabPrint. In other slicers, we're able to control the gap between internals and outer shell, but in PS none of the parameters seems to affect this behaviour. however, the prints are still far from optimal. Finally, we managed to amend the parts to be sliceable in Prusa Slicer with the internal structures as well by flipping the triangle normals for the outer surface. We're using Simplif圓D in a way, it wasn't probably originally meant to. The shell is printed in a single pass, then the nozzle continues to print the internals. The internal trusses are not connected to the shell, so it's not pronounced to the surface while it still connects and strengthens the airframe. First of all, the models are made like this on a purpose, to be able to print lightweight and strong structures. Hi, I'm writing here on behalf of 3dLabPrint.
