Yes, easily. Enclosed with an actively heated chamber, and a hardened nozzle in the box.

Good to go

Polycarbonate prints great on the QIDI X-Plus 3

  • Enclosed chamber, exactly what this material wantsPrinter

    The QIDI X-Plus 3 is a closed box, so Polycarbonate cools slowly and evenly instead of warping.

  • Keep the spool dryMaterial

    Polycarbonate soaks up moisture from the air, and damp filament prints rough and stringy. If that happens, dry the spool at 80-90 °C for 6-8 h and store it sealed with desiccant.

  • Nothing special neededPrinter

    The QIDI X-Plus 3 handles Polycarbonate without extra equipment. Load it and print.
