0.2mm Nozzle - Optimal Print Fineness

Smaller diameter extrudes thin filaments
High resolution on the horizontal print surface

0.6mm and 0.8mm Nozzle - Faster Print Speed

Larger diameter extrudes more filaments per second, resulting in faster print speed

Comparison of Different Nozzle Sizes

[*Note]

*① Filaments with carbon fiber, glass fiber, metal, or other inorganic particles are prone to clog a 0.2 mm nozzle.

*② Bambu PLA-CF and Bambu PETG-CF have been extensively tested and proven to have a low risk of clogging when printed with a hardened steel 0.4 mm nozzle, while also achieving higher print quality.

*③ For general carbon fiber or glass fiber filaments such as Bambu PAHT-CF and PET-CF, it is recommended to use a hardened steel 0.6 mm nozzle to minimize the risk of clogging and abrasion.
