1) Prepare the gcode 2) Prepare the printer Download the MyFirstPrint.stl on www.polymaker.com Load the stl file in your favorite slicer. - Clean the build plate and prepare it with the right surface: We recommend to print PolyLite™ ASA on BuildTak® or using Magigoo. - Level the build plate. - It is recommended to clean the nozzle when you change the material to prevent partial clog. Note: It is recommended to use an enclosure to print PolyLite™ ASA to prevent warping issue. It is recommended to place the printer in a well ventilated area. Enter the correct settings for PolyLite™ ASA; Property Value Bed temperature 75˚C-95˚C Cooling fan OFF Nozzle speed 30mm/s – 50mm/s Nozzle temperature 240˚C-260˚C Layer height 0.1 Number of outlines (shell) 3 Infill 20% Top/Bottom layers Surface adhesion Brim or Raft
3) Prepare the filament 4) Start the print 5) Post process When the print begins make sure the first layer is correctly laid down and sticking well to the bed before leaving the printer to finish the print. PolyLite™ ASA can be wet sanded to obtain a smoother surface. PolyLite™ ASA can be chemically smoothed with acetone. We highly recommend to use our PolySmooth™ filament for this purpose as it can be smooth with IPA which is safer to manipulate than acetone. - Carefully open the resealable bag, remove the spool and close the bag back to preserve the desiccant bag. - It is recommended to store PolyLite™ ASA in the PolyBox™ to prevent moisture absorption which will lower the quality and the mechanical properties of the print. - Load the filament in your printer and wait until you have a consistent extrusion. - At the end of the print, make sure to correctly store the filament back in the resealable bag if you are not using the PolyBox™.
PolyLite™ ASA is an alternative to ABS with an improved weather resistance. Its UV resistance and excellent mechanical properties make it the perfect choice for real life applications.

ABS, PETG, PLA, PC, ASA PLA, PC, PETG TPU95 PolyLite™ is a family of 3D printing filaments made with the best raw materials to deliver exceptional quality and reliability. PolyLite™ covers the most popular 3D printing materials to meet your everyday needs in design and prototyping. The PolyMax™ is a family of advanced 3D printing filaments produced with Polymaker’s Nano-reinforcement technology, to deliver exceptional mechanical properties and printing quality. PolyFlex™ is a family of high-quality flexible materials. It provides the perfect solution for applications where high flexibility and durability are required.
PolyWoodTM, PolySupportTM, PolySmoothTM, PolyCastTM PolyMide™ is a family of Nylon/polyamide based filaments. Produced with Polymaker’s Warp-Free™ technology, PolyMide™ filaments deliver engineering properties intrinsic to Nylon and ease of printing. PolyDissolve™ is a family of dissolvable support filaments. This family offers support solu- tion for our portfolio of filaments. It enables a greater design freedom. The Specialty family provides unique filaments from Polymaker to unlock new 3D printing applications.
Jam-Free™ technology improves the heat stability of Polymaker’s PLA filaments with softening temperatures over 140 °C. As a result, Polymaker’s PLA filaments show minimal softening in the “cold end” and can melt rapidly once entering the heating zone, leading to excellent printing quality with zero risk of nozzle jams. Warp-Free™ technology enables the production of Nylon-based filaments that can be 3D printed with excellent dimensional stability and near-zero warpage. This is achieved by the fine control of micro-structure and crystallization behavior of Nylon, which enables the material to fully release the internal stress before solidification. Ash-Free™ technology allows Polymaker’s filament which has been designed for investment casting to burn off cleanly without any residue, enabling defect-free metal parts. 3D printing has been used to produce investment casting patterns as it cuts down both the cost and lead time for small-volume production runs.

Layer-Free™ technology involves exposing a 3D printed part to an aerosol of micro-sized alcohol droplets, generated by a rapidly vibrating, perforated membrane called the nebulizer. The aerosol will then be adsorbed by the surface of the 3D printed part and render it smooth and layer-free. Nano-reinforcement technology is applied to produce filaments with excellent mechanical properties and printing quality. It dramatically improves the toughness of the material by increasing its impact resistance. Stabilized Foaming™ technology is used to produce foamed filaments, whose foam structure can survive the printing process and be inherited by the printed parts. This enables light weight 3D printed parts with unprecedented surface finish. LAYER-FREE™ NANO-REINFORCEMENT STABILIZED FOAMING™ Rough surface Wood With Layer-Free TM Stabilized Foaming TM
Polymaker offers 3D printing accessories to optimize the user experience with their filaments. PolyBox™ PolyBox™ is a dry storage box designed to provide the optimum environment for 3D printing filaments. The PolyBox™ is compatible with all 3D printers and can house two 1kg spools or one 3kg spool.
The Polysher™ is a desktop post processing unit designed to remove layer lines from PolySmooth™ and PolyCast™ prints. The Polysher™ uses Polymaker’s Layer-Free™ technology to create a fine mist of alcohol which evenly smooths the model.
