This video address concerns about the quality and reliability of the Micro Swiss All Metal Hotend. Specifically, it tests the ability of this high-temperature hot end to print regular PLA at regular temperatures. When you read the comments about the MicroSwiss Hotend some users comment that it tends to jam when using low-temperature filament such as PLA and that stringing is an issue with these filaments. I have evaluated both of these potential issues and report on my results.

While I tested the Micro Swiss Hotend on my Creality Ender 5 I believe my results will hold across the Creality line of printers. The test prints were sliced with Cura and printed in Hatchbox PLA and Matterhacker Build PLA.

The Ender 5 Upgrades on the printer used for these tests include a SeeMeCNC EZR Struder Extruder Kit and a Capricorn Bowden tube.

After watching the video please feel free to comment. All comments about this topic are welcome. Let's continue to learn together.
