3D Printed bone using PVA breakaway with FibreTuff

3D Printing of FibreTuff compounds for FDM require a heated bed.  The heated bed temperatures recommended for the FibreTuff can range from 80 C to 110 C. To adhere the FibreTuff to the heated bed - PVA water soluble breakaway, a glue stick or adhesive sheet is required. 

Magigoo is a preferred adhesive https://magigoo.com

Recommended processing conditions.

The nozzle size should be .4 or .5mm with temps at 235 - 240C. The printer bed should be heated at 80 -100C. Cooling Fan on for first few layers than turned off  Recommended layer height .1 - .2mm

Printer oven is desired - temps 80C.

Printing speeds 45 -50 mm/sec

Density or infill is at 90 - 93% infill

Recommend Adhesive or breakaway - PVA  

Please note: A new spool of FibreTuff Medical Grade filament is packaged in a sealed vacuum package with desiccant and shouldn't require drying. If you leave spool exposed to elements over a period of time estimated at 3-4 days, moisture pickup is possible and may effect adhesion for layering. It is recommended to desiccant dry spool for 10 hrs before printing.
