How To Clear and Prevent Jams on Your 3D Printer

At some point you may encounter a filament jam or a clogged nozzle where your 3D printer is not extruding. This guide is intended to help you prevent such jams, or fix with them as painlessly as possible.

Retraction: Just say "No" to oozing

By understanding a little more about the 3D printing process, and how settings in MatterControl affect extrusion, we can help you reduce and even eliminate oozing and stringing from your 3D prints. This should be a part of the regular maintenance and calibration program for your 3d printer.

Three Reasons to Upgrade to an All-metal Hot End

Desktop 3D printing has come a long way in the past few years. It wasn’t long ago that PLA and ABS were pretty much the only filament options. PEEK-based hot ends – once the industry norm – aren’t able to print all the material options available now. Unleash the potential of your printer by upgrading to an all-metal hot end.

3D Printer Filament Comparison Guide

There are many different kinds of 3D printer filament, and each one has it's own strengths for different projects. Knowing these differences is key to a successful 3D printing experience and so we have created a Filament Comparison Guide with everything you need to know about every type of filament available.
