change heater

[Morogorn]

Greetings,

In the manual, it's say max temperature is 240 ºC.

If I replace the heater, is possible elevate the temperature...

But the doubt is:

The heater voltage is 12v or 24v?

I see on eBay heater with 50w, 350º max temperature.

Can print nylon and PC (policarbonate) without problems.

I unknow if the board can supply 50w, maybe a external power source.

Someone have any idea?

Best regards.

Greetings,

In ebay, have this item: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Geeetech-3D-Pr ... 2749.l2649

Specs say:
Operating temperature range: -40°C～+300°C
Cartridge Heater: 12V 40 W

Can I print nylon (need 280ºC at hot end) in my Geeetech prusa I3 A Pro 3D ?

But... In the manual is write max temperatura 250ºC.

---

If this hot end not suporte 280ºC, I need buy a hot end 50W, but the main controler mosft's can drive this new hot end?

Best regards.

Hi, It is not recommended to print nylon consumables.
