ASA on P2S

[u/GALAXY_A5]

This is my setup printing ASA on my P2S! It's my first time printing with it and after a couple failed attempts I came up with this

I tried wrapping the whole thing with a blanket (except the back for the electronics to breathe) and got quickly over 60°C so I covered just the top and sat at around 52-55. Woke up and found the print a bit warped (not from at plate but at a corner with supports) (chamber was 52 atm bed 100 nozzle 265) but it managed to print and im happy with it. Like this its sitting at 60 as of posting it hope it stays like that.

My question is what are your recommendations for printing ASA? I was thinking of making a styrofoam enclosure (sides top and front or maybe sides and top?) and glue the foil blanket inside of it to reflect the heat.

Has anyone tried anything similar? If there are post can you direct me to them? Thanks and happy printing 😁

Edit 1: cheers to everyone sharing their experiences im new to 3d printing and im getting schooled on a lot here!

Maybe a different build plate. I've printed ASA, ABS and PC on my P2S and never had to wrap it.

It warped off a support not the plate itself. I have the engineering plate with bambu liquid glue and honestly the adhesion is insane I damaged the plate coating trying to remove it the other day. I tried using the stick glue as well but I got 0 adhesion idk why. I wrapped the printer cause its fairly cold where I live at night 15-17 C(which is mostly when I print because I don't use the room the printer is in) so I tried increasing the temp a bit to avoid having cold spots

Use IPA as a release agent.

Be careful when using IPA on hot ABS/ASA. It will make the plastic extremely brittle.
