Start from your own filament
Every row is the setting that one maker prints for one of its own filaments, and the same plastic can differ between brands. Bambu Lab’s PLA Basic and Polymaker’s PolyLite PLA share a nozzle range of 190 to 230 °C, but their beds differ: 35 to 45 °C for Bambu Lab and 25 to 60 °C for Polymaker. Prusa gives single values for its ABS, ASA and PC guides where the others give ranges.
Enclosures and chambers
In the chart, ABS, ASA, PC and nylon are the plastics that their makers want printed in an enclosure. Bambu Lab gives chamber temperatures for its carbon-filled filaments instead: 35 to 50 °C for PETG-CF and 45 to 60 °C for PAHT-CF. A cell that says “Not stated” means the maker’s sheet says nothing either way.
The first layer
Prusa sets the bed a little hotter after the first layer for ASA and PC: 105 °C and then 110 °C for ASA, 110 °C and then 115 °C for PC. The chart shows both values in those rows.
On our own X2D
We print Bambu Lab’s matte filaments on a Bambu Lab X2D with a textured PEI plate. Over four prints of PLA Matte, the nozzle held about 224 °C, the bed 55 °C and the chamber about 31 °C. Over two prints of PETG Matte, the nozzle held 245 °C, the bed 70 °C and the chamber about 43 °C.
Flexible filament
Bambu Lab’s TPU 95A prints at 220 to 240 °C on a bed at 30 to 35 °C, and its sheet sets a speed limit too: under 80 mm/s. Polymaker’s TPU95 runs a little cooler, at 210 to 230 °C.
