3D Printing Guides

A complete side-by-side comparison of PETG and PLA filaments — tensile strength, impact resistance, heat deflection temperature, print speed, moisture sensitivity, cost, and when to use each. Includes a full printing parameters comparison table.

ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) is the go-to filament for outdoor and high-temperature 3D printing. This complete guide covers ASA properties, optimal print settings, bed adhesion, post-processing, and how it compares to ABS and PETG.

A complete guide to printing with ABS filament — print settings, why an enclosure is essential, acetone vapour smoothing, bed adhesion methods, post-processing, and Eolas Prints ABS filament and pellets. Includes Bambu Lab-specific guidance.

Learn how to anneal PLA to achieve 85°C+ heat deflection temperature using Eolas Prints PLA Ingeo 850 and Ingeo 870. Includes step-by-step annealing process, design considerations for shrinkage, and before/after performance comparison.

A complete guide to printing with PETG filament — print settings, why PETG bonds to PEI without a release agent, drying guidance, transparent PETG tips, post-processing, and all Eolas Prints PETG variants including UV Resistant and Transition.

A complete guide to printing with TPU flexible filament — Shore hardness explained, print settings for D53, 93A and D60 variants, Bambu Lab AMS compatibility, drying guidance, and how to fix the most common TPU printing problems.

A complete guide to printing with PLA filament — print settings, bed adhesion, drying and storage, common issues, post-processing, and all Eolas Prints PLA variants including High Speed PLA, Matte, Silk, Neon, Antibacterial, and Ingeo 850/870.
