Printing with PolySupportTM 1) Prepare the gcode Download the MyFirstPrint.stl on www.polymaker.com Load the stl file in your favorite slicer. Enter the correct settings for PolySupport™; Property Value Nozzle temperature Bed temperature Nozzle speed Cooling fan 220˚C - 230˚C 25˚C - 60˚C 20mm/s – 40mm/s ON Z gap X-Y gap 0.1mm 0.5mm Before we discuss the printing settings for PolySupport™, it is important that we identify the two different types of support structures.
Open support - Support density: Since open support can be removed in a single piece, we recommend a high support density (40% or more) with 2 layers of solid interface to obtained better surface finish. - Threshold overhang angle: Most 3D printers can print overhang angles up to 45˚ , so it is recommended that the threshold overhang angle be set at 45˚. - Support infill pattern: For open support, since the support structure can be removed relatively easily, perpendicular infill is generally recommended.
PolySupportTM PolySupport™ is a break away support for Polymaker PLA based filaments. It has a perfect interface with PLA, strong enough to support it and easily removable by hand.

Product Families PolyLiteTM ABS, PETG, PLA, PC PolyLite™ is a family of 3D printing filaments made with the best raw materials to deliver exceptional quality and reliability. PolyLite™ covers the most popular 3D printing materials to meet your everyday needs in design and prototyping. PolyMaxTM PLA, PC, PETG The PolyMax™ is a family of advanced 3D printing filaments produced with Polymaker’s Nano-reinforcement technology, to deliver exceptional mechanical properties and printing quality.
PolyMideTM CoPA PolyMide™ is a family of Nylon/polyamide based filaments. Produced with Polymaker’s Warp-Free™ technology, PolyMide™ filaments deliver engineering properties intrinsic to Nylon and ease of printing. PolyDissolveTM S1 PolyDissolve™ is a family of dissolvable support filaments. This family offers support solution for our portfolio of filaments. It enables a greater design freedom.
Technologies Regular PLA With Jam-FreeTM JAM-FREE™ Jam-Free™ technology improves the heat stability of Polymaker’s PLA filaments with softening temperatures over 140 °C. As a result, Polymaker’s PLA filaments show minimal softening in the “cold end” and can melt rapidly once entering the heating zone, leading to excellent printing quality with zero risk of nozzle jams.
Rough surface With Layer-FreeTM LAYER-FREE™ Layer-Free™ technology involves exposing a 3D printed part to an aerosol of micro-sized alcohol droplets, generated by a rapidly vibrating, perforated membrane called the nebulizer. The aerosol will then be adsorbed by the surface of the 3D printed part and render it smooth and layer-free. NANO-REINFORCEMENT Nano-reinforcement technology is applied to produce filaments with excellent mechanical properties and printing quality.
Hardware Polymaker offers 3D printing accessories to optimize the user experience with their filaments. PolyBox™ PolyBox™ is a dry storage box designed to provide the optimum environment for 3D printing filaments. The PolyBox™ is compatible with all 3D printers and can house two 1kg spools or one 3kg spool.
PolysherTM The Polysher™ is a desktop post processing unit designed to remove layer lines from PolySmooth™ and PolyCast™ prints. The Polysher™ uses Polymaker’s Layer-Free™ technology to create a fine mist of alcohol which evenly smooths the model.
