PRINTING A RAILCORE II

UPDATED 08-OCT-2018

RailCore II

A friend of mine has asked if I could help him out and print the parts for a RailCore II - ZL out of PETG, so here is the start of the adventure.

The original files can be found here:
RailCore II - Thingiverse Files
AND:
RailCore II - XL Option Thingiverse

RailCore II - ZL

The choice of Filament is eSun PETG in SOLID BLUE, and it looks amazing..




The big issue was getting the settings right for my GeeeTech A10. It took some time and a small bag of failed prints..


But I finally got it sorted. And I'm getting consistent prints.

Printer Settings:
First Layer:
Temp -Nozzle 240c
          - Bed 80c
Speed - 15mm/sec (to get bed adhesion)

Rest of Print:
Temp -Nozzle 235c
          - Bed 80c
Speed - 35mm/sec
