Comment on I like big beds and I cannot lie, pt 2. Any hints to improve ASA adhesion?
TwanHE@lemmy.world 9 months agoASA and ABS definitely do better at elevated chamber temps. What temp is enough I can’t say but I still saw improvements when going from 50 to 70c. Higher temps also let you use more fan speed without the added risk of warping so you’ll probably see better overhangs even though the temps are higher.
Id start with adding some chamber temp sensors first so you can measure what difference you are making with the other mods.
Using 4 mm abs panels I saw about a 15c improvement by just throwing a fleece blanket over the printer, so that might be an easy fix if you don’t print large parts frequently. Although higher temps are also great for layer adhesion on smaller parts.

Thanks for the feedback. I’m thinking a mix of thermostors, two more bedfans, and better insulation is my next step for less ASA warpage.
