CarbonX HTN-CF - Carbon Fiber Reinforced High Temperature PPA Nylon Filament by 3DXTech - 2021

[@princefpv1]

another great video boys in my experience with this material if you don't have a heated chamber you just need to print slower but I highly recommend an enclosure just to keep the temperatures a little more consistent I find around 300 on the nozzle and then I used 70 on the bed with Elmer's glue all mixed 50% water sticks like a champ

[@ikkeennigij121]

just wondering, what printer do you have that can reach these temps? I have a stock cr10v2 and max nozzle is 260° and 110 for the bed

I am getting conflicting info on your site vs 3DXTech's page. Neither has a TDS which is a bit disappointing bit your site says 190c HDT and in this video and on 3DXTechs site it says 220c HDT. It would be great to get a TDS from 3DXTech like the ones the Essentium provide for their HTN Nylon

[@VisionMiner]

We should have a TDS for this soon, it's brand new so they're still working on it :) And thanks for noticing the typo on the website, that has been fixed!

[@lio1234234]

This looks pretty awesome! I would love to see a review of some polymaker's polymide filament, it looks really impressive especially the carbon one!

[@bcarroll03]

Looks like I know what I'm printing my parts for my heated chamber build in. You should put a link to the material in your description.

[@VisionMiner]

Good call, added, thanks again!

[@bcarroll03]

@@VisionMiner confirmed, it is fixed. It's Sunday, go home and stop working. I will be buying some of this tomorrow because I got a feeling it comes with extraordinarily responsive technical support!

[@master-gbig1140]

When I back-up the video and replay the "Break", you have to bend a good 30° before it breaks; "That's Good", but; what you need now is a pull test. You need to pull along the strands rather than pull them away from each other, as in; layer from layer.

[@VisionMiner]

Like a z-axis layer adhesion test?

[@master-gbig1140]

@@VisionMiner Take another test strip, like the one you broke in the vice, but; print it with holes on both ends and a narrow section in the middle so you can pull it apart slowly with a scale on one end, so; you can measure the Lbs until it breaks. I'm seeing 3D Printed helIcopter rotor heads out of that CarbonX HTN-CF, if it works.

[@FragBenitez]

Fantastic video, as always. One day I will get into these pro printers

[@kurtclark8560]

isn’t anything wit cf too abrasive for gears and parts that rub against other parts?

[@elonquemattheson6151]

Do you guys sell unfilled polyphthalamide or plan to in the future? PPA has some amazing properties, not just as a high-temp stationary structural material, and it would be super useful for wear & impact applications where CF/GF are detrimental.

[@VisionMiner]

Yes we do, it's regular HTN from Essentium (also on our site in the Nylon section) We've actually been experimenting with dual extrusion, where the core of a part is HTNCF25 and the outside is HTN (PPA) for exactly that reason :) mostly for wear properties

[@jbergene]

would love a comparison to Essentiums CFHTN. we bought 1 spool of HTN and CFHTN from essentium and its very strong. However, I dont feel the CFHTN is as strong as their datasheet says. I printed 2 equal parts, 1 in Essentium CFHTN, and 1 in 3Dxtech CF-PA6 (gen 3). Essentium CFHTN was stronger, but not 4 times stronger (maybe 1.5x) as the datasheet would imply. Thoughts on this ?

[@master-gbig1140]

Can you print a fuel tank for an RC car or plain with PSU Poly Sulfone High-Temperature Chemically Resistant Filament?

[@VisionMiner]

Absolutely yes!

[@mattwirtz2494]

I know the TDS is coming, but seeing other comparative materials, I would assume this material around 100-120C should hold up to ~25psi in a 3.5" tube? If I'm doing my math right haha. Should be good if you're mentioning intake manifolds. Looking at intercooler piping as well as other supporting parts. Thanks!

[@VisionMiner]

Definitely, that's a great application!

[@mattwirtz2494]

@@VisionMiner thanks guys! You’ll be seeing a fat order of it in a couple months when I’m assembling!

[@bikerinbeta]

Do your filaments work with Bambu Carbon 3d printers? I've looked at the recommended MarkForged printers in your website and they have buttons to request a quote instead of letting me buy it. That is a huge major red flag for me even if they are really good printers.

[@patricke3848]

Have you successfully printed this airtight? I've printed their PA6-CF airtight (held 50PSIG for 30 days), but haven't tried this yet and would like to use it for some automotive parts. How does it print compared to their PA6-CF?

[@master-gbig1140]

OK; I know your Filament is specialized, but; all I have is a CR 10. I can print Matter Hackers Carbon Fiber Nylon, but; it looks like I'm going to have to get another printer if I want to print with you guys. I need to build a printer that can print hoter than 260°. What kind of printer do you guys use?

[@VisionMiner]

You can still use the CFPA6, too! visionminer.com/materials#nylon We mostly use the Funmat HT (visionminer.com/funmat) You can easily upgrade your hotend and be printing at these temps, probably for less than $100 :)

[@Miles7955]

A great filament, shame a prusa cannot use it

[@josiahong5177]

I think it can. At the bottom range, yes, so worse strength, but it’s possible. For example, I print PC with a heated bed at 110 degrees and CF nylon with a hotend at 290. Just not above 290, as with my horribly PID tuned Prusa, it goes up past 300, then triggers maxtemp.

[@stevesloan6775]

Question: Could I print an, engine rocker cover for my race car with this filament? I know it depends solely on the under bonnet temperatures... that are varying between cars. A better question is, has anyone printed a rocker cover? 😂🤜🏼🤛🏼🇦🇺🍀🍀🍀🤓😎

[@VisionMiner]

hmmmmmmm GOOD idea -- however I think something like ULTEM 9085 or 1010 would be a better choice at those temperatures! Videos coming in a few days!
