Revo Six has the same form factor as the V6, while Revo Micro is slightly shorter in Z height. What’s the difference between the various Revo models? Note that this simplified testing result is hypothetical since it ignores many real-world conditions, but we included it because it’s just a simple data point that everyone can understand.

Our own simplified testing which everyone uses (extruding into free air until the extruder skips), with an E3D Titan extruding PLA at 200☌ with a 0.4mm Revo nozzle was able to push about 15mm³/sec without issues, with 18mm³/sec possibly the absolute limit for this specific configuration.

In plain English that means they think you should limit your printing speed to about 130mm/sec when using the standard 0.4mm nozzle with a 0.45mm extrusion width at 0.2mm layer height when printing PLA at typical temperatures. E3D lists Revo’s volumetric flow rate at 10.5mm³/sec using their testing methodology.

The flow rate is dependent on many factors such as nozzle size, nozzle temperature, nozzle type, extruder force, filament type, filament width, filament quality, extrusion type etc. Stefan from CNC Kitchen made a very thorough review of the Revo last month and explains the temperature gradient perfectly, with cutaway diagrams of Revo compared to V6. So if you were printing PLA at 180☌, try increasing it to 210☌ or more when on Revo. The short answer is that the nozzle temperature needs to be increased by at least 5% from what you’re used to, so clogs are probably due to the the nozzle temperature being set too low.
