3DPower Basic PETG

3DPower PETG filament is designed for users who are looking for a material with a good price-quality ratio. Thanks to the combination of easy printing and mechanical resistance, it is suitable for a wide range of applications – from functional parts to aesthetic models. This material is popular among hobby printers and more advanced users due to its reliability and versatility.

PETG from 3DPower is made from recyclable materials and components approved for food contact. Prints from this filament are characterised by a glossy surface, which can be further processed, for example by sanding or polishing, to achieve various aesthetic effects.

Main Advantages

• Resistance and Flexibility: Good impact strength and flexibility, suitable for functional parts.
• Ease of Use: Low shrinkage allows printing without the need for an enclosed chamber, yet some slight shrinkage should be expected.
• Universal Use: From prototypes to final products, including decorative models.
• Ecological Properties: The material is recyclable and components are approved for food contact.
• Surface Finishing Option: In addition to a glossy surface, prints can be sanded or polished.
• AMS Compatibility: Suitable for use with the Bambu Lab AMS system.

Important Material Information

• Moisture: PETG is a hygroscopic material, meaning it absorbs moisture from the surrounding environment. To maintain print quality, it is important to store the filament in a dry place or in a sealed package with a moisture absorber. If the filament becomes damp, drying it before use is recommended (e.g., 60-70°C for 4-8 hours).

• Shrinkage: Although PETG has low shrinkage compared to other materials, some shrinkage may occur during printing, especially with larger models or incorrect printer settings.

Why Choose This Filament?

3DPower PETG filament offers reliable results and a wide range of uses. It is an ideal choice for both hobby printers, who will appreciate its ease of printing and versatility, and for technically-oriented users looking for a quality material for functional and aesthetic prints at a reasonable price. Compatibility with the AMS system facilitates working with multiple materials.
