Do you remember the 22RE four-cylinder engine parts we printed last time? [3D Printing Project Share] ESUN PLA+ Light Blue 3D Printing Material? This time, we used Polymaker PC-Max 3D printing material to print an entire car! Take a look at how exquisitely detailed this miniature monster truck turned out! If a 3D printed bumper car competition were held today, PC 3D printing material would definitely help you dominate the field. Its excellent mechanical strength is so impressive that it wouldn't be an exaggeration for it to be banned from such competitions! Polymaker PC-Max 3D printing material is specially developed for desktop FDM/FFF 3D printers. In addition to good print quality, excellent mechanical strength, and high heat resistance, it also provides outstanding impact strength and fracture toughness, making PC-Max an ideal choice for engineering applications. Compared to other materials with similar rigidity, PC-Max has better toughness than other 3D printing materials, it is not brittle, and in almost all deformation tests, PC-Max has better mechanical strength than ABS and PLA. PC-Max has a heat resistance of up to 110°C, which almost surpasses all other 3D printing filaments on the market. It won't deform even when boiled in water. PC 3D printing material was once only applicable to industrial-grade FDM 3D printers, but PC-Max has significantly lowered this threshold. Its approachable printing temperature and lower shrinkage rate allow desktop 3D printers to print with ease. After printing, it can also be easily post-processed with sandpaper and painted. PolyMaker's production line is very strict, with eight strict checkpoints to ensure the consistency of PC-Max quality and help you complete each print more smoothly. Let's take a look at this miniature monster truck with a suspension system printed using Ultimaker 2+ and PC-MAX!

PC-Max provides excellent toughness and strength for the car body and suspension system, making it durable for kids to play with!
Aside from the tires and rims, the entire car body to the suspension system was printed in one go!
When printing this mini monster truck, there's no need to set up supports in the slicing software. The model itself includes built-in supports at the front and rear of the car body, which can be easily removed after printing.
The latest version of Cura offers many new options. Here are our parameters for your reference!
For those concerned about warping, you can refer to our Raft settings. It works even better when combined with BuildTak 3D printer bed adhesive sheets.
PolyMaker PC-MAX performance is also MAX!
Finally, gather your friends and use a 3D printer to create your very own custom monster truck!
