LulzBot is a brand that offers a wide range of products and services for 3D printing enthusiasts. With a LulzBot 3D printer, you can easily print with flexible TPU or TPE filaments, expanding your creative possibilities beyond traditional hard plastics like PLA or ABS. These flexible filaments open up a whole new world of design options, allowing you to create items like bracelets, watch bands, tools, and jigs with bend, elasticity, and even bounce.

LulzBot stocks a variety of flexible filament colors and types that are perfectly compatible with their printers. However, printing with these rubbery materials requires specific tools and settings. LulzBot provides all the necessary equipment, including a 2.

85mm Tool Head for consistent material flow and preventing clogging. Their direct drive Tool Heads offer better control over flexible materials, minimizing issues like stringing. To ensure successful prints, LulzBot recommends using a heated glass print bed with a reversible PEI/glass surface.

This surface prevents excessive adherence of TPU/TPE filaments. Additionally, LulzBot's Cura LE slicer program offers preloaded material profiles for flexible filaments, providing a great starting point for your prints. In terms of materials, LulzBot offers a range of options, including NinjaFlex TPU, Polymaker TPU, BASF TPU, and JABIL TPE.

These materials have been tested and proven to provide excellent elasticity, detail, and durability. Whether you're a hobbyist or an educator looking for engaging classroom projects, LulzBot's flexible filament offerings and reliable printers will meet your needs.
