Electrifi™ prints best when treated with care rather than speed:

Key rules:

  • Use direct-drive extruders only

  • Avoid Bowden systems and AMS-style feeders

  • Print slowly (10–30 mm/s)

  • Minimize or disable retraction

  • Use larger nozzles (≥0.4 mm, preferably 0.6 mm)

  • Turn off part cooling completely for Conductive PE

Strong hotend cooling is still required to prevent heat creep—but printed parts themselves should cool naturally.
