The CubeX 3D Printer creates the model by pulling lament from the cartridge through the print jets via the delivery tubes.
The lament is then jetted through the print jet tip in a thin string of molten plastic. The print jet movement is coordinated
by the print plate, which lowers incrementally after each layer is deposited so a new layer can be drawn on top of the last,
building the part up.

PLA This is a hard plastic that has a low environmental impact. It is derived from renewable, starch-based
resources.
We recommend using PLA when printing extra-large parts on CubeX as it is a more stable print
material.
PLA is the optimal support material for industrial ABS parts. PLA has the ability to dissolve away in
caustic soda solutions supported by an ultra-sonic tank. (see page 36 for more information)
ABS This is a well-known plastic known for its strength and industrial properties.
As a build material, ABS is good for both small and large parts.
ABS works as an excellent support material for extra-large PLA parts.
