Printer Recommendations (forum.guncadindex.com)

I have a Sovol SV06+ currently but I'm interested in switching to an enclosed core XY printer for engineering filaments like PPA-CF. I've been looking at the Centuri Carbon, Qidi Q2, or a used Bambu P1S and modifying it to get a higher hot end temp. Would the CC be sufficient to print PPA-CF well or should I spend the more money on a different printer?

FYI, there are multiple posts and videos of a concerning fire risk with the way the USB attaches to something…maybe printer head? Anyway, it bends and causes fraying which is a fire risk. They offer replacement cables, but that is something to research before investing in a CC, as the replacement cable will Eve fray as well. There are alleged printable fixes, but I don’t know that they resolve the issue. The CC2 looks weird. My research has caused me to now focus on the Qidi Q2 or eventual P2S as an upgrade/addition to my A1 Mini.

Yeah it's something to do with how tight the cable bend is on the print head. I haven't had a problem with it, but I also don't have a ton of hours on it like some people do. That is something else to keep in mind for OP for sure.
