Panchroma™ CoPE 1.75mm 3D Printer Filament

Panchroma™ CoPE is a copolyester-based 3D printing filament designed to deliver high-speed printing, smooth surface quality, and excellent printability. Unlike the other materials in the Panchroma™ family, CoPE is not PLA, but it uses similar printing temperatures and settings for a familiar and easy printing experience.

Its advanced formulation provides improved bridging and overhang capabilities, allowing complex geometries to be printed reliably at speeds up to 400 mm/s. The material also offers excellent bed adhesion, helping reduce warping and maintain reliable first layers on challenging prints.

Panchroma™ CoPE is particularly useful for high-speed production, decorative models, prototypes, and applications where clean surfaces and reliable overhangs are important. It can be printed on standard FDM/FFF printers without an enclosure.

One of the unique advantages of CoPE is its low adhesion to standard PLA. While this makes it unsuitable for combining with PLA in the same multi-material part, it allows CoPE to work effectively as a breakaway support material for PLA prints.

Key Benefits

• High-speed printing up to 400 mm/s
• Smooth, high-quality surface finish
• Excellent bridging and overhang performance
• Strong bed adhesion helps prevent warping
• Easy to print using PLA-like settings
• No enclosure required
• Excellent layer adhesion
• 27 color options
• Can be used as a breakaway support material for PLA
• Compatible with AMS systems when used with other CoPE spools

Typical Applications

• High-speed production printing
• Prototypes
• Decorative models
• Display pieces

Additional Information

• CoPE is a copolyester and is not PLA
• Uses printing settings similar to standard PLA
• Do not combine CoPE with standard PLA in the same multi-material part because the materials do not bond reliably
• CoPE can be used as a breakaway support material for PLA
• Do not use directly on textured PEI without an appropriate release agent, as adhesion can be excessive and may damage the build plate
• Polymaker recommends Magigoo Original or Vision Miner Nano for easier release on textured PEI
• Allow prints to fully cool before removal for easier release
• Available in 27 colors
• AMS compatible when used with other Panchroma™ CoPE spools
• Polymaker currently does not provide food-safe certification for this material
