This 3D printer heat block can be used to provide dual-color prints or prints with two different filament materials. The 3D printer heat block is made of aluminum, allowing for fast heat transfer to the hot end of the 3D printer. This gives this 3D printer part the ability to make two-color prints or two-material prints. When you're purchasing this 3D printing heat block, you should check to see if your 3D printer is capable of using two different types of filament or your 3D printer came with two extruder. You can either print 2 different colour filament on a single 3D object or print one filament for the 3D object and one PVA filament for supporting the 3D object. PVA filament is used for structural support of 3D objects, it sticks very well to PLA and ABS but will dissolves in water. If you use two colours, the key is to ensure that they don’t mix. When you print with dual extrusion it’s important to avoid cross-mixing of the plastic filaments. This can be done by ensuring that no filament passes through the hot end before every strand has finished passing through. This 3D printing heating block not just for signle extruding printer, it add a feature to this 3D printer heat block so that you can have the choice to print in dual-color or have prints made with two different filament materials.
