nGen is engineered for prototyping and production. This co-polyester filament by colorFabb brings together the strength and precision found in Eastman Amphora™ 3300 3D polymer, optimized for desktop 3D printing. nGen handles complex models well, including bridging gaps, holes, and overhangs. It also exhibits minimal warping and responds well to post-processing techniques like sanding.
nGen adheres well to Lulzbots PEI print surface. They strongly recommend applying PVA glue to directly on the print surface using a glue stick (such as Elmer's® brand) before printing to ensure easy part removal.
Features
Interlocking parts, models, figurines, and functional prototypes print well due to the low shrink rate and excellent layer adhesion. When 3D printed your objects will be glossy, opaque, and bright. nGen 3D printing filament is an excellent choice for 3D printing in close quarters due to its low-odor and styrene-free nature.
For best performance, print with a heated PEI print surface.

To make removing 3D printed nGen objects easier, we strongly recommend applying a glue stick (such as Elmer's® brand) to the print surface prior to powering on your LulzBot 3D printer.
Maintain the print surface by powering off your LulzBot and cleaning the glue stick residue with a soft cloth and water.
