eSun and (obviously) Bambu provide filament configurations and process configs for their filaments in Orca Slicer (or Bambu Studio,but that won’t be used here anymore).

This is quite useful as a starting point for filaments you never used before, you don’t have to transfer the manufacturers recommendations (who often are quite generic. 170-250°? Really?) and is quite helpful for new users (which I sometimes have to help).

The question is: Are there any other manufacturers who do that? There are of course a few stock one delivered with Orca,but is there anyone else?

Edit:

So far we have the following:

    Your slicer should have generic profiles for each material which should give acceptable results with most brands. Density and flow tend to by the same across brands for any given material, unless it’s a “rapid/high flow” or foaming filament, in which case the manufacturer prints the recommended settings on the spool. Basically if it’s not printed on the spool you can use just the defaults in your slicer.

      Yeah. I am sure there are some corner cases where a different brand of filament might benefit from different settings but that is going to be nothing compared to your printer (e.g. heated printbed or not?).
