Can I print ABS on a PLA part?
-
Hi folks,
I have finished my first black PLA-roll on a huge 24h print.
I wanted to change to another, but only have a roll of black ABS left, would it stick on PLA?
Or do I have to finish the print with yellow PLA? -
abs will need different print settings.
and as far as i understand it it will not bond.

I agree, the hotend temp is higher. (easy fix)
But would I need to raise the bed temp?
The print is already 60mm high, so warping should be no issue, but the bond must be strong enough.... -
the bonding is poor. that is why some people use pla for support on abs prints.

@Veti thanks!
OK, it's yellow PLA then...
stupid me, I should've inspected it before I started the print.
