Magigoo PC 3D glue stick

is designed to work exclusively with polycarbonate type filaments. This professional-grade adhesive ensures that prints adhere firmly when the print bed is hot and the part is easy to remove once it has cooled. This unique and innovative mechanism allows no tools to be used to remove prints from the bed. They just jump off when the bed cools down.

WHY:
The strength and toughness of PC make it an ideal FDM material for manufacturing functional prototypes and end-use parts, however, the material presents some printing challenges. Virgin PC has a high glass transition temperature (Tg) and can therefore be used in high temperature applications. However, a high Tg value can make it very difficult to print with desktop printers, which are usually not equipped for the high printing temperatures required for pure PC printing. Indeed, virgin PC tends to warp significantly when printed at an insufficient bed temperature (<130ºC) in unheated closed chambers without the use of a suitable bed adhesive. Some manufacturers have improved the printability of PC by using plasticizers or by mixing it with other materials. However, there are still some difficulties to be aware of when using these solutions. First, adhesion can still be a problem, especially on larger parts. In addition, some bed cling films have been proposed to avoid the warping that occurs with larger prints, but in this case there is a high tendency for the cling film material used to irreversibly fuse to the print. This means that the expensive sheet metal has to be removed very often and also requires a lot of post-processing and cleaning. Magigoo PC can be used on glass or several other surfaces. Use on other plastic-based surfaces, including panels, is recommended to ensure strong adhesion and to prevent the part from fusing to the panel.

HOW:
MAGIGOO PC is designed and tested to work with different brands of PC filament. Since the composition of each plastic is slightly different, the ideal settings for MAGIGOO PC may vary.

• Shake the bottle.
• Apply to the desired area by pressing the spring on the bed (activation of the inner valve) and spread as needed.
• Print according to the filament/printer manufacturer's recommendations.
• Let cool and remove. The pressure should come up immediately.
• Clean - Wipe with a damp cloth.

SECURITY:
Using this product with filaments other than PC filament may cause over-tacking and damage the jobsite surface.

Tips:
For larger prints, a 20mm brim with multiple layers is recommended.
In case of excessive adhesion, it is recommended to wet the print bed with a small amount of water and slowly work it under the part, which should make part removal easier.
