Filament Slicer Profiles
COEX 3D filament profiles are built into OrcaSlicer 2.3.2 and later. COEX 3D contributed them to the OrcaSlicer project. In OrcaSlicer, open Filament Selection, choose vendor COEX 3D, and tick your material, for example COEX PLA or COEX PETG. The built-in profiles are for 1.75mm filament. All but COEX NYLEX UNFILLED work on any printer, and on supported Bambu Lab printers OrcaSlicer automatically uses a version tuned for that printer. For Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer, Cura, SuperSlicer and Creality Slicer, download our profiles from GitHub.

How to select COEX profiles in OrcaSlicer
- Update to OrcaSlicer 2.3.2 or later.
- On the Prepare tab, click the gear icon in the Filament section (its tooltip reads "Set filaments to use").
- In Filament Selection, tick COEX 3D in the vendor column, or type COEX in the vendor search box.
- Tick the COEX profiles you want, then click Finish.
- Pick the profile from the filament dropdown, for example COEX PLA.
The same Filament Selection page appears in OrcaSlicer's first-run setup wizard. On a Bambu Lab printer listed in the table, OrcaSlicer automatically uses the version tuned for your printer and nozzle. On any other printer it uses the general COEX profile (COEX NYLEX UNFILLED has none, so it appears only on the Bambu Lab printers listed). Either way, the dropdown shows the same name, such as COEX PLA.
Not built into OrcaSlicer
- 2.85mm filament: the built-in profiles are set to 1.75mm. If you print 2.85mm COEX filament in OrcaSlicer, change Filament diameter to 2.85mm in the profile before you slice.
- Specialty filaments such as Carbon Filled PLA, Flame Retardant ABS, Glow in the Dark PLA, ESD PETG and CoexFlex 90A don't have their own OrcaSlicer profile. Our GitHub page includes a PLA-CF profile.
Other slicers
Bambu Studio, PrusaSlicer and Cura don't include COEX profiles. Download them from our COEX filament profiles on GitHub and import them into your slicer. The repository has folders for Bambu Studio and OrcaSlicer (.bbsflmt and .json files), Cura, PrusaSlicer and SuperSlicer, plus a Creality Slicer download.
Profiles are a starting point. Every printer is a little different, so you may need to fine-tune temperature, flow or speed. Our recommended temperatures are on the print settings page. We're still building out our profiles. Send feedback or questions to support@coex3d.com.
