🛠️ What You'll Learn:
Introduction to TPU: Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) is a flexible filament known for its elasticity and rubber-like properties. TPU can be more challenging to handle in certain 3D printers, especially those with filament exchangers. The flexibility of TPU can cause difficulties in the feeding mechanism and may lead to issues such as jamming or improper loading.
Bambu Lab A1 Demystified: The Bambu Lab A1 boasts an AMS filament exchanger, although it's worth noting that TPU filament isn't directly compatible with this feature. When incorporating TPU with the A1, it's recommended to operate it as an external filament for optimal results.
Perfecting the Print: Dive into slicing techniques and printer settings to achieve flawless TPU prints.

Thanks for making this! I was a little nervous to print with TPU for the first time but your video has helped.
Love the video, love the suit. Let ur haters be ur motivation. Keep it up 💪
Thank you so much! I had a lot of fun taking something relatively boring and making it entertaining. I am really enjoying this TH-cam journey and I’m excited to see where it goes! It’s people like you that make it all worth it! Thank you for taking the time to comment! Hope you enjoy my next video!
Great video ! enjoy your style. You explain things very well.
No has pensado en colocar tu canal con audio en español? La comunidad de habla hispana que usa bambulab es muy grande y hay pocas personas que expliquen los vídeos como tu.
Thank you for sharing
Very interesting, for me it already fails at the extruder gear and that with 95a ESun 🙈
Love the vid
Thank you! I always LOL when I see your username pop up in my notifications. Thanks for taking the time to comment! I hope you enjoy my next video!
Great video
Thanks 🙂
Thank you! Are you planning to do a TPU project?
@@jakemgrim
I'm thinking of buying TPU because it's a very interesting and different material
Thank you for this video
@@Blaxolot it’s a very unique material! Not something you would use every day but great when you need it! It’s also crazy strong!
than ks for the video, very useful as I want to print TPU on my A1 Mini - what shore hardness was the TPU filament?
Interesting. Thanks for the video. I haven't not much luck printing TPU with my Prusa MK4, but my Neptune Pro 3 is doing much better. Just got the A1, and I wanted to try TPU on that machine.
TPU can be tricky! The A1 does great as long as you do not run it through the AMS. It is really really hard to get off the bed though once it is done
So you didn't have to go in and manually slow down the printing speeds in the config? I am printing a poop basket for the a1 mini to replace my pla basket as it rattles and drives me nuts but being a novice still to 3d printing it took me awhile to dial in the settings on this. Basically I slowed all my print speeds down to 50 except the inner and outer wall I set to 30. Prior to that I was getting massive stringing which eventually just caused failures. I also ended up going with the smooth PEI plate as the textured plate just had too much adhesion. Tips on printing with TPU going forward would be more then welcome! Thanks and great video...
I am running 70A TPU on mine now it took a couple of attempts for it to do the flow calibration but it’s working.
That is awesome! I have two questions: What is the difference between TPU and 70A TPU? What brand of 70A are you using?
@@jakemgrim Most TPU is 95A hardness, 70A is comically soft. I made a strap for my son for a toy weapon and it’s nearly as flexible as silicone. It was a limited run by Microcenter on an 1lb (0.5kg) spool that was mislabeled, and discontinued when they realized most couldn’t use it.
@@JonLaRue I see! Thank you for explaining!
Thanks for this! I was trying to run TPU through the A1 AMS and it kept failing. I wasn't aware it isn't compatible with the AMS. Time to dust off the old external reel arm!
Haha I wasted a whole day trying to run TPU through the AMS! I then found a chart on the Bambu lab website that stated the AMS is not TPU compatible. Good luck with it!
Looking for omeone who can print apiece in tpu with a 15" dimension
I saw video once on classic ams that tpu (overture hs) works. All that person had to change was instead of saying tpu in ams he selected pla. Profile was also used as pla, but settings were from tpu.
That being said, since you use same tube as from AMS lite, this might work. Could you try and reply back? Im waiting for new batch of A1 and will for sure try that as I would like to see possibility to print multi color tpu without manual replacing of spools.
I tried exactly what you’re saying. I thought it would work but it was very inconsistent. The reason TPU doesn’t work in the AMS is because the spring on the feeder motor in the AMS is too heavy for TPU. The TPU actually gets restricted by the AMS motor. I tried taking the pressure off of the spring but it just lead to more headaches
@@jakemgrim you use only standard tpu or high speed? It is supposed to be difference in ams. Still waiting for restock on a1, but will for sure try this. If nothing, at least to change different material for support would be good while printing tpu.
@@janezhitori6203 I just used standard TPU. I hope the A1 will be back in stock soon. I LOVE using mine!
What tpu brand do you recommend
I use atomic filament for most of my 3-D printing materials, but for TPU I use overture. What type of 3d printer are you using?
I have never seen it in anywhere, but my tip is to use alcohol to remove tpu,
What I have seen is many beds that got ruined by TPU removal fail though
Do you apply the alcohol to the bed before you print? Or do you put it on as you’re trying to remove the part at the end? Sounds like a good idea!
let it seep underneath after :)@@jakemgrim
putting a tiny tiny bit of glue-stick into the alcohol you use to clean the bed will also help with just about all bed issues and make it last longer
@@yagoa that’s such a great idea! You just saved my bed plate!
the build plate doesnt say it can print TPU, only PLA/ABS/PETG ...that confused me but probably TPU buildplate temp is between PLA and ABS ?
From my experience, I would say it’s because it’s incredibly difficult to remove TPU from the bill plate. You make a good point, and I would recommend using a smooth build plate for printing TPU. Thank you for bringing that to my attention!
@@jakemgrim i was thinking only about temperature, but you are probably right. If the filament sticks more (like tpu) it is probably going to be waaay worse on textured build plate. Probably the reason they didnt put it on build plate label...but from your experience it looks like it is still possible so I m gonna try for sure!
@@11WicToR11 good luck! Let me know how it goes! Just keep an eye on the heated bed cable
I don't need the A1, I have an Ender 3 and Ender5 plus both with Sprite extruders, and a P1S, BUT I still want the A1.... When Bambu Labs builds a larger volume printer I will get that one for sure and replace the Ender 5 + . PS Jacket looks just fine to me, you have to show off your cufflinks somehow! LOL
Hahaha when are started reading your comment I thought it was from a hater, but then I laughed out loud when I read “BUT I still want the A1” lol. It’s a great printer! I love it! It continues to impress me! Thank you for the jacket comment :D. I hope you enjoy my future videos and thank you for taking the time to comment! Hope you are having a great day my friend!
@@jakemgrim I loved the video and made the suit comment because I read another one about the sleeves. I guess I have to subscribe now that you gave me some attention! Thanks for reading and taking the time to make some tutorials and just fun videos. make sure you fix the bed wiring, I'm sure you heard about that.
@@TDHobbies they just recalled all Bambu Lab A1 3D printers!
My CR10 prints TPU just fine, you just have to tune your slicer settings.
Really?! Do you just run it slower?
Yes mostly 25mm/s speed settings, 1.05 extrusion multiplier, 10mm retraction at 20mm/s @@jakemgrim
how many times did you say TPU?
Like 5 I think
At the minimum 5 times lol@@jakemgrim
@@Killswitch1411 I noticed the same thing while editing the video lol. Do you use TPU at all?
@@jakemgrimI haven't used it yet, will be looking into where I can apply it if I do. I just got into 3d printing recently, mainly for making VR headset comfort mods. So been using PLA+ and Pro for durability and have some PETG coming as well to try out. I have been expanding into other use cases. I have a A1 and a A1 Mini. Also have a Flashforge adventurer 5m Pro so I can do ABS. Look forward to anymore content you drop.
@@Killswitch1411 thank you! I haven’t used PETG but I’m hopping to team up with Atomic Filament and make a video on it soon!
you can print TPU with bodens, you just have to go slower and fill the gap in the extruder path by the gears. also, you look like a Turning Point Usa spokesman
Thank you
And your jacket arms look a bit to short lol
Haha I bought it at a thrift store
Pretty weak how Bambu sort of leaves the fact we can't multi material with TPU out of the advertising. Glad I didn't buy an AMS. I'm having a hard time getting TPU to even extrude on my A1 mini.
