Other Compatible Slicers
Note: Many other excellent slicing software options exist, including Cura, Simplify3D, ideaMaker, KISSlicer, and others. While we don't currently track profiles for these slicers in our database, they may work perfectly with your Dremel 3D20. Check each slicer's official documentation or community forums for compatible profiles and settings. You can also contribute profiles to our open-source slicer profile database on GitHub.
What filament can the Dremel 3D20 print?
A guide to the materials the Dremel 3D20 can handle, based on its hotend specs.
| Filament | Suitability | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| PLA | Great | The easiest filament to print. Works on almost any printer; a heated bed helps adhesion but is not required. |
| PETG | With care | Marginal - PETG prefers a hotter bed (~70-80C) than this printer reaches. |
| TPU & flexibles | Great | The direct-drive extruder feeds flexible filament well. Print slowly for clean results. |
| ABS & ASA | Not ideal | Not recommended - the bed cannot reach the ~90-110C ABS and ASA need. |
| Nylon (PA) | Not ideal | Not recommended - nylon needs a hotter hotend (~250-270C) and ideally an enclosure. |
| Polycarbonate (PC) | Not ideal | Not recommended - PC needs very high hotend temps and an enclosed chamber. |
| Carbon-fiber & glass-filled | With care | Possible if you fit a hardened or wear-resistant nozzle - the abrasive fibers quickly wear a stock brass nozzle. |
