AMS Compatibility

AMS: Compatible, but may lead to faster wear on internal components.
AMS Lite: Not recommended due to potential feeding failures caused by substantial feeding resistance.

Printing Tips and Preparation

Drying Conditions: 55°C for 8 hours. Store in a dry environment after use. Dry before use if the material absorbs moisture.
Storage Recommendations: Keep sealed with desiccant to maintain optimal printing performance.
Nozzle Recommendation: Printing with a 0.2 mm nozzle is not recommended; a 0.4 mm nozzle is advised for optimal results.
Glow Maintenance: The model's luminous intensity diminishes over time. Exposure to ultraviolet or sunlight for approximately 2 hours can rejuvenate its glow. However, prolonged or frequent irradiation may expedite PLA aging.
