Printing with Priline Carbon Fiber Polycarbonate

Well someone in my RC club asked me if I could print some parts for him. It’s a variety of parts from wheel pants, a gopro mount and some two material washers with TPU on the bottom to give it a little cushion.

I saw the Priline CF PC on amazon and decided to give it a try. At first glance the surface is rather rough, but since I’ve got a direct drive I don’t think that’ll cause me any issues. The first two prints were done at 240/70 and I had problems with adhesion so I decided to try printing it with a raft. It’s printing very well with a raft, so the next time I’ll probably try increasing the bed temperature a little bit. Judging by the failed prints the 240 temp is just fine, the layers are bonding well and the parts are very strong without being brittle.

It has a LOT of strength compared to PETG or the other CF PETG I’ve tried, so far I’m impressed with this filament.

The first part I’m printing is the GoPro mount and I’ll post pictures when it completes.

The wheel pant I’m going to print out of PETG in red, then I might try printing one using the CF PC and he’ll have to paint it but it should be super strong.
