Comment on I want to branch out from PLA. Should I try ABS or TPU?
ikidd@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoThat’s a bowden extruder, you’ll have problems with TPU.
Try PETG, just dial up the retractions a bunch and slow it down.

A1 has a direct drive extruder. It does function as kind of a hybrid thing with the AMS though. Use of the AMS with TPU isn’t recommended, but there are a couple of harder TPU filaments that supposedly work.

Oh, ok. Every picture I saw made it look like a bowden extruder sitting on the end of the X gantry, with the tube going over to the hotend.
