PETG-CF settings for the Sovol SV06
Great match
These are tuned starting settings for printing PETG-CF on the Sovol SV06. The Sovol SV06 has a direct-drive extruder and an all-metal hotend, so we set the hotend to 250°C and the bed to 80°C. Carbon-fibre PETG combines PETG toughness with extra stiffness and demands a hardened nozzle.

FAQ
- What temperature should I print PETG-CF on the Sovol SV06?
- Start at 250°C for the hotend and 80°C for the bed, then run a temperature tower across 240–260°C to dial in your exact filament brand.
- What print speed works for PETG-CF on this printer?
- Around 45 mm/s is a safe starting point on the Sovol SV06.
- What retraction should I use?
- Use about 1.5 mm of retraction (direct drive needs very little). If you see stringing with PETG-CF, raise retraction speed before distance and dry the filament.
- Do I need an enclosure for PETG-CF on the Sovol SV06?
- No, PETG-CF prints fine in the open on the Sovol SV06.
