Similar to all other silk filament, our rainbow silk filament needs to be printed at higher nozzle temperature and lower speed

We suggest you start with following settings and adjust them based on your result.

1. Print speed for perimeters is suggested to be slower than 80 mm/s, slower speed will result in glossy surface finish and stronger layer adhesion. It worth noting, when the parameters are tuned up perfectly, we have no problem getting successful print at 100mm/s. 

2. Nozzle temperature. We suggest you start with 215°C. Our multicolor silk filament is best printed between 200-230°C

3. Part cooling. Because multicolor silk filament needs to be printed at higher temperature, it's important to have proper part cooling to avoid surface defects and warping. However, cooling too fast will weaken the layer adhesion. A careful balance is needed for successful print

4. Fill density: our rainbow filament color changes every 6-8 meters, higher fill density will result in more dramatic color change in the final print, lower fill density will result in more gradual color change in the final print.  

Reliability

ZYLtech filament is all about reliability. When you need a stronger and more durable functional part, you need to know you are printing with a material you can trust and depend on. ZYLtech’s NO. 1 goal is to provide you with the most reliable and the strongest 3D printer filament at the best price possible.  

Quality Control

ZYLtech PLA 3D printer filament is meticulously tested for quality and consistency. We use top quality US based raw materials and additives for reliable results time after time. Our 1.75mm PLA filament tolerances of ±.05mm make for steady feed rates and reliable extrusion on both Bowden and Direct Drive setups!   

Affordability

ZYLtech PLA filaments are designed with price in mind; we created an affordable solution for every 3D maker. Whether you are a pure beginner with a finite budget, or an additive manufacturer looking to save on cost of production, ZYLtech PLA is the filament to get any job done.

Color Consistency:

It's important to us at ZYLtech that all of our 3d printer filaments have consistent color in each and every roll that comes off the production floor.  Our chemist and quality control department work closely to ensure that our formulas produce reliably reproducible results every time.
