nGen_FLEX
nGen_FLEX is designed as a semi-flexible material that allows most users to print at regular print speeds, lowering build times compared to other very flexible filaments. Even 3D printers with an extruder bowden will have no problem with either 1.75mm or 2.85mm diameter filament.
nGen_Flex is made with Eastman 3D Amphora FL6000 polymer, which is particularly well suited for 3D printing. nGen_FLEX is temperature resistant to around 130°C.
This means that 3D printed objects can be steam sterilized at 121°C, which is very useful if you want to use objects printed with this material in medical or laboratory environments.

Printing Platen
nGen_FLEX offers the best results on a BuildTak or with the help of fixatives. Use the heated platen at about 80°C. Make sure that the distance between nozzle and build plane is not too low. The first layer should not be too tight to avoid a difficult detachment of the part after printing. After printing, cooling to room temperature and heating to 85°C can result in easier part removal.
Cooling
As always, less cooling results in better layer-to-layer adhesion, more cooling produces better results on complex and protruding surfaces. A fan speed of 50% is recommended as the default setting. Set a lower fan speed if your print geometry allows it.
