Flashforge Dreamer (NX) - Testing HQA PETG Filament - Part 2

1 year ago

This video series shows the testing of HQA Silver PETG 1.75mm Filament using a Temperature Tower, All-In-One Test, StringingPostsX Test, Bed and Layer Adhesion Test, PolyPearl Tower Torture Test, and #3DPhil Test.

Unfortunately HQA is going out of business, but there are other manufacturers of PETG out there, so this is a valuable test to see how to print PETG with the Flashforge Dreamer (NX).

HQA has a going-out-of-business sale:
https://www.hqa3d.com/
But the shipping is pretty high, so it isn't a great deal.

Part 2 covers increasing the temperature to the apparent maximum of the printer (248 degC) and trying another Temperature Tower.
