UltiMaker CPE+ 3D Printer Filament, 700g

Ultimaker CPE+material is chemical resistant with high dimensional stability, with the added advantages of increased temperature resistance and higher impact strength compared to regular CPE.

CPE (co-polyester) materials are chemical resistant, tough and demonstrate good dimensional stability. It is a preferred choice for both functional prototypes and mechanical parts.

While both CPE and CPE+ provide similar performance characteristics, CPE+ provides the added benefit of higher temperature resistance and increased impact strength.

Ultimaker's CPE+ can be compared to Colorfabb HT in properties and characteristics.

CPE spools come in 0.75kg. 2.85mm diameter and approximately 90m long.

Print Settings:

• Print speed: 35-50mm/s
• nozzle temp: 260 C
• Bed Temp: 110C
• Fan = 25%
• Flow = 105%
• Bed material: Adhesion Sheets on glass (advanced printing kit)
• Door: Yes (advance printing kit)
• Adhesion Method: Brim or Raft for large parts

Reasons to choose Ultimaker CPE:

• Excellent chemical resistance
• Excellent toughness and dimensional stability
• Good interlayer adhesion, especially when using the front door add-on
• Low levels of ultrafine particles (UFPs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
• Ideal for short-run manufacturing and functional prototypes
• Transparent filament option available

Differences between Ultimaker CPE and CPE+:

• CPE is available in a wide range of colors to choose from, including grayscale for more professional looking models.
• CPE’s tensile and flexural strength are higher, whilst CPE+ is formulated to be up to 10 times tougher.
• CPE+ features a temperature resistance of up to 100 ºC when compared to CPE, which is only resistant up to 70 º
• CPE has a better build plate adhesion than CPE+, but you won’t notice the difference when using the stickers supplied in our Advanced 3D Printing Kit.
