The PAEK family
PolyArylEtherKetone (PAEK) is a family of high-performance semi-crystalline thermoplastics characterised by high mechanical strength and excellent resistance to temperature, chemicals and wear.
The most popular members of the PAEK thermoplastics family are:
- PolyEtherEtherKetone (PEEK)
- PolyEtherKetoneKetone (PEKK)
- PolyEtherKetone (PEK)
- PolyEtherEtherKetoneKetone (PEKEKK)
- PolyEtherEtherKetoneKetone (PEEKK)
General printing guidelines *
| Nozzle size: ≥ 0,4 mm |
Height layer: ≥ 0.10 mm |
Experience level: Expert |
| Print temperature: ± 370 - 420 °C |
Fan speed: 0 - 25%. |

* The above settings are guidelines for finding optimal print settings. These ranges should work with most printers, but you can experiment outside these values if you feel it is suitable for your printer. There are many different types of printers, hot-end and offset, so it is difficult to provide universal settings that apply to all.
