ColorFabb ColorFabb Gray Metallic nGen Filament - 1.75mm (0.75kg)

ColorFabb nGen is one of the easiest filaments to print with and is ideal for any part that requires bridges. nGen holds up very well to a variety of print speeds and temperatures making it a reliable filament that produces high quality prints with ease. nGen is a completely unique filament developed by ColorFabb which is produced with the Amphora polymer AM3300. As a result, this filament is low-odor and styrene-free.

ColorFabb nGen is the perfect filament for beginners or those who don't want to constantly refine print settings. Because this material prints well at a wide range of temperatures and speeds, you can spend less time refining your settings and more time printing. nGen flows very well through the print nozzle and does not clog often. This filament is great for creating durable parts while avoiding print failures and the need to adjust print settings.

When we tried out nGen, we were most impressed with the ability to print parts with tons of bridging successfully (these parts had failed using other materials). Additionally, nGen has a very opaque and crisp looking appearance when printed.

Printing Temperature:
220-240C

Printing Speed:
40 - 70 mm/s

Heated Bed:
75-85C

Build Platform:
nGen gives best results on a heated build platform - 75C to about 85C is usually needed for proper adhesion to a glass plate. You can print without a heated bed if you use Buildtak or some other adhesive to minimize warping.

Questions

I agree with Don that it would be great to have more technical detail about nGen vs. PETG. nGen seems to be a lot tougher, actually remarkably strong when compared to the brittle PETG. I would like to know about, 1) the UV resistance and, 2) the glass transition temp (temperature tolerance of finished prints). Thanks

Hi, I read that PETG and nGen are quite similar. PETG has UV resistance, but I can’t seem to determine if nGen i has it as well. Could I get some information regarding the comparative UV resistance between the two. Thanks.

Why do you only have qty 3 silver in ColorFabb nGen? We will need over 100 over time.
