Everything about NOZZLES with a different diameter

Learn more in the full article about nozzles with a different diameter:

The default nozzle diameter for most of today’s printers is 0.4 mm, and E3D’s hotends used in Original Prusa i3 MK3 and MK2/S printers are no different. Changing the nozzle takes just a few minutes and it can bring a number of benefits.

Hi! I'm newbie in Fdm 3d printing and I was wondering: -Larger nozzles print faster, but in slicer setting you have to change layer height also? I mean if you slice at 0.2 layer height and then print with a 0.4 and 0.6 nozzle, it will take the same time or it will be faster with 0.6?

[@Rottwiler44]

@@Andreastoro it’ll be faster with a .6mm nozzle since it’s pushing out more filament. Make sure you change your nozzle size in your slicer.

[@Q26Video]

Thanks for a very informative and helpful video. Just bought a 0.8mm nozzle from E3D and after a couple of experiments have printed a really large, strong box/tray out of generic PLA. Upped the temperature to 225c, used 0.5mm layer height with a 0.4mm first layer and 1.0mm line width. Slowed the general speeds down to 30 to 40mms with 20mms first layer. The result was really successful, very strong and ideal for the purpose without wasting hours on tiny layers for a big object. Very encouraged by this video - changing the nozzle was easy and I am now going to try some smaller nozzles.

[@Prusa3D]

Great, thanks for the comment! It's always nice to hear that the video actually encouraged someone to try something new that helped him :) Good idea with upping the temperature, with this much plastic going through so fast, it can be tricky to heat it in time.

[@bcarroll03]

Great video! I have been going to a .6mm nozzle lately and have been experimenting with .8mm and 1mm thick lines, this seems to increase layer bonding with the added pressure to make the lines wider, it has also impoved the surface quality of prints using CF-PA quite a bit. Forget about overhangs and bridging though.

Great timing, got my Mk3 (kit version) about a week ago. Fantastic printer but was already thinking about larger nozzels as with my old (very old and worn out) k8200 I mostly needed and printed custom brackets and cases for projects. It was quicker than the mk3 but a pain to use all the bed area. Ordering a new nozzle now. :)

[@DiViNiTY1337]

As a mechanical engineer it took me waaayyyy too long to go up from the standard 0.4mm nozzle size. I have used a 0.8mm a bit, and I only want to go higher. For functional parts without tiny details, bigger, bigger and bigger still nozzles is the definite way to go.

Could we also see the impact energy graph with the 1.0mm nozzle?

[@JonathanKayne]

The problem with using 1mm nozzles is that you have to also deal with heating. A hotend can only move heat to your filament so fast, so you often have to deal with that and lower the speed. I'm not sure how the MK3 handles that, but it seems like in the video it handled just fine. My robotics team has a massive 3d printer with an E3D volcano, and we usually have to slow down the print because the extruder can't move the filament fast enough, but that is a totally different reason.

[@sugarbooty]

How fast were you extruding the filament?

[@markcoren2842]

Out of curiosity, are you using a 1.75 mm filament or 3mm?

[@JShel14]

Have you used the E3D titan extruder? That think can grab and move filament like a monster, it might be worth a try.

I have Microswiss hotend with 0.4/0.8/1.2mm SS nozzles. It's very true about filament disappearing with 1.2mm nozzles, but 1 perimeter and +20C over normal print temp, fan for cooling all that molten filament also slowing the print speed to %68 so the hotend can keep up. still prints about 1/3 the time of 0.4mm nozzle (still needs tuning).

Iv'e always thought .6mm was the best medium. You guys should make an upgrade (or a new feature on your next machine) Where the printer can change it's own nozzle. Would be great for clogs and jams during prints for the machine to fix itself and continue printing, but even better is that when combine with the MMU you basically get e3d's tool change machine but in a much cheaper package all the way around the board. Rather than buying 5 hot ends you buy 5 nozzles
