Description

CarbonX™ ezPC+CF – 1.75mm 750g

CarbonX™ ezPC+CF is made using our easy to print ezPC Polycarbonate and reinforced with premium high-modulus carbon fiber.  This material offers excellent printability, high thermal properties, strength & stiffness, superior dimensional stability, and an amazing surface finish.  This will become your new go-to for engineering-grade parts.

CarbonX™ ezPC+CF is a high-performance carbon fiber reinforced polycarbonate filament.   This all-new material material is ideal for anyone that desires a structural component with high heat, high stiffness, excellent surface quality, and dimensional stability. ezPC+CF is a clear choice for engineering-grade projects that require excellent performance and ease of printability.

Benefits of CarbonX™ ezPC+CF Include:

  • High thermal properties, especially when reinforced with carbon fiber
  • Amorphous structure gives it low, near isotropic shrinkage (very low CTE)
  • Further improved stiffness and dimensional stability with the addition of carbon fiber reinforcement
  • Very low odor emitted while printing
  • Wide processing range of 260-280°C (suitable for most desktop printers)

Filament Specifications:

1.75mm +/- 0.05mm in diameter

Recommended Print Settings:

  • Extruder: 260-280°C
  • Bed Temp: 80-100°C
  • Nozzle: We currently recommend a hardened steel nozzle with a minimum diameter of 0.4mm.
  • Other: Ideal layer height is 60% of nozzle diameter. We do not recommend printing layers smaller than 0.2mm with carbon fiber reinforced filaments.
  • Heated Chamber: Recommended
  • Supports: Water soluble AquaTek X1 USM works great for complex parts.
  • Drying Instructions: 80°C for 4+ hours.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Filament

What Is It?

Fibers 5-10 micrometers wide made of carbon. The fibers are aligned following the axis of the material.

This, along with their physical makeup, are what give this material its excellent properties.

What Does It Do?

Carbon Fibers demonstrate a lot of desirable material properties:

  • High stiffness
  • High tensile strength
  • High heat tolerance
  • High chemical resistance
  • Low weight
  • Low thermal expansion

How Does It Work?

Reinforcing plastic with carbon fibers produces a 3D printing filament which exhibits the best properties of both the carbon fibers and the plastic of choice.

What Is It Good For?

Ideal for any applications which require light weight and rigidity.

Carbon fiber reinforced parts, designed to use less material and save weight, is extremely popular in aerospace, civil engineering, the military, and motorsports.

Abrasive Material

This material is particularly abrasive among 3D printing filaments. Users may find standard brass nozzles are chewed through very quickly compared to standard wear and tear. When worn through, the nozzle diameter will widen inconsistently and the printer will experience extrusion issues.

Because of this, it’s strongly recommended this material be printed through a hardened steel nozzle rather than a softer metal. Hardened steel nozzles can often be inexpensive and easily installed depending on your printer manufacturer’s instructions.
