Material Type standarization + Technical Filament Types by ianalexis · Pull Request #10553 · OrcaSlicer/OrcaSlicer

ianalexis · 2025-08-27T22:31:39Z

Description

Added filament types used in filament profiles + ones that exist in the market.
Each filament type have it's own:
- Min/Max temp. fixes Recomended nozzel tempeture limit to low #10181
- Min/Max Chamber temp.
- Adhesion coefficient
- Brim
  - Yield Strength
  - Thermal Length
Modified the FilamentTempType logic to use the Max temp.
- LowTemp = Max temp <= 250
- HighLowCompatible = Max temp <= 280
- HighTemp = Max temp > 280

Note

Some "filament types" i found in some profiles that are "wrong" or not a material technical name so i didin't add them:

ABS Material4Print Natur
Breakaway Support
PACF Pro
PETG Polymax
S-Multi
S-PAHT
Silk
TPU-AMS

Posible evolution

add "modifiers" options to reduce the material list:

Base Material (Base material: PLA, ABS, ASA, PA, PC, PEI, etc.)
Type:
- PLA: Aero
- PA: 6, 11, 12
- PEI: 1010, 9085
- PET: G ?
- PC: ABS, PBT
Reinforcer:
- CF
- GF

Result material should be [BASE MATERIAL]-[TYPE]-[Reinforcer]
But i'm not going to code this unless there is interest from @SoftFever so you choose.

How would you deal with something like ColorFabb PLA-LW-HT?

How would you deal with something like ColorFabb PLA-LW-HT?

Pla lw ht is something like pla foam AFAIK (correct me if I'm wrong, I didn't know about it until now).
If is something different we should see what it is and maybe creating a new category there and see what values they should use.

Now days what type is used for it?
Pla?
If so, it uses the pla's brim and adhesion coefficients.
A custom one outside the list?
If so, it uses the generic default values.

No matter what, probably they are not the correct ones and whit this modification it will be really easy to add them.
And something like that happens with extreamly different materials like Peek.

@ianalexis it is PLA that has foaming agent added in and was further modified to resist higher temperatures. So, two modifiers which is my concern with the proposed scheme.

@ianalexis it is PLA that has foaming agent added in and was further modified to resist higher temperatures. So, two modifiers which is my concern with the proposed scheme.

PLA-HT changes usually impact the final piece rather than the printing parameters, so I did not consider creating an extra subtype.

From what I saw in many ColorFabb posts, both (PLA-LW and PLA-LW-HT) fall perfectly within the PLA-FOAM range. The differences between the two lie in the definition of each profile (such as first layer temperature, bed temperature, and flow coefficients), but the base type should be PLA-FOAM.

options.

Introduces get_filament_chamber_temp_range to retrieve safe chamber temperature limits for filament types. Updates ConfigManipulation to use these limits instead of hardcoded values.

Replaces hardcoded material checks for adhesion coefficient and yield strength with lookup functions using extended FilamentType struct.

Moved filament type properties and related lookup functions from PrintConfig.cpp into a new MaterialType class.
