Took these photos several weeks ago, but I thought I’d share in this group. I was expecting NinjaFlex to be a pain to print, but it’s actually the easiest material to print with from my experience. Highly recommended!
Wow that piece doesn’t look flexible at all just by looking at it
I really need to get some of this NinjaFlex!!!
that looks like resin
the only bad thing about ninjaflex that it is so very expensive>
Cool. How does it handle cavities eg could this be used to make a squeezable musical instrument.
@Aaron_Lu That’s true. A .5 kg spool cost around $50 USD. However, it opens the door for many other possibilities.
@John_Said I’m honestly not too sure. But I doubt it would make a good sound as I don’t see this material having very good acoustic affects.
@Derek_Cameron what printer and extruder are you using?
@Jorge_T I’ve got a Rigidbot Big with the stock extruder. The stock extruder consists of a direct setup with a small PTFE tube going down into the hotend. I had to print a small spacer between the extruder gear and the hotend so that the Ninjaflex wouldn’t kink up. But other than that, it’s a stock setup.
No retract and no Bowden. 2 good rules when printing ninjaflex.
could you share your settings? (heat, speed, retract, extrusion multplier?)
@David_Clunie Apologies for such a late response. I was on vacation and basically left behind everyday life at home while I was away.
So if I remember correctly, these were my settings:
Nozzle = 215
Bed = Off
Overall speed = 40mm/s
Outside layers speed = 85%
.2mm layers
No part fan.
Hope this helps!
thanks for sharing!
