The max bed temperature of 0°C is below the recommended 50°C for PVA. Adhesion may be poor without additional bed adhesion aids.
| Filament Nozzle Requirement | 185-215°C |
| Printer Max Nozzle | 300°C |
| Filament Bed Requirement | 50-60°C |
| Printer Max Bed | N/A |
Que faire à la place
- Your printer's bed maxes out at 0°C, but PVA needs at least 50°C for reliable adhesion.
- Try a compatible filament for your Markforged X7 — PLA, PETG, and ABS are good options.
- If you need PVA specifically, you'll need a printer with a hotend capable of 185°C+ nozzle.
