Polymaker PolyCast PVB Filament 1.75mm Natural, 0.75KG

Burns out great, good detail, clean prints on Bambu!

This filament DOES NOT LIKE being printed above about 195°C (strings EVERYWHERE by 205 & chars by 220), so you have to keep your extrusion rate under tight control if you aren't using a volcano or goliath hotend. Besides that, just be wary of the shrinkage as it starts to melt (broke off some small, deep holes in my first couple investment casting attempts, leaving weird random vids in the finished pour) & be sure to keep your final burnout temperature for long enough for 100% of the filament to burn out & you can get some really nice results.

I found this printed pretty well. It wasn’t as clean and high-quality surfaces as I was getting with PLA, but I could’ve probably dialed it in a little better. It burned out really well it was a noticeable difference from the PLA during the burnout, worth it but not a whole lot better than pla. I’d say if you are just doing g it for your self pla with super thin walls is fine, this is worth it if the extra quality really matters to you, keep in mind pla is 10-20$ per kg. This is 66$ per kg.

This product burned out 100% it looks like. Other Poly products like polymax and polysmooth will print so much better. But these other polys will not burn clean for casting. Polycast will burn clean. You will get ash from the others. I have used at least 10 rolls and getting the settings right is still an ongoing process. I am now using 60 degrees C, for the bed and after 5 layers going up to 75. this will keep the part stuck. When the bed cools off the part will break off. Prints well enough to get a good looking casting. You can sand the part to get lines out. Put it in polisher for a smooth finish. Using the prints for lost wax casting. If you are using for silicon casting or epoxy cast maybe use a better printing product like polymax. REX

Actually kind of surprised with how well this prints for the price.

1. The spool width is too narrow compared to normal spools. 2. The winding was crossed which caused a jam.

This PLA leaves no/little ash or remains during lost PLA casting. I tried to get creative and use this with a brass pour on top of the PLA without melting it out beforehand, just to see what would happen. The PLA material remained and only the top had been melted. Don't judge, I was curious.

Stuff works great printing it out of my Flashforge Adventurer 5M but you gotta set up the settings right. Overall burns out well, and leaves almost no ash behind in the end.

Sure find polymaker to be the best pla I’ve been able to find. Seems like it lasts longer and easier to work with, worth the few bucks extra.

Waste of money and a lot of money.

Absolut wie beschrieben. Etwas teuer, aber es lohnt sich.

Filamento ottimo per eseguire fusioni. Si stampa l’oggetto normalmente senza fare troppe regolazioni e successivamente è pronto per essere immerso nel calco. Si scioglie facilmente lasciando lo stampo liscio e pulito. La consiglio
