I print these quite often - 50 or so a month give or take - do not use PLA - use PETG or ABS/ASA

honestly, if PLA+ cant handle the heat for most machines they should be shutting down for safety just before PLA+ starts to go soft. the new machines run hotter so a better material could be needed. which is why I've invested in so upgrades to be able to print using the Nylon infuse Carbon Fiber. ePA-CF/NylonX 155c/311f, PLA+ is 62c/144F.

that is a better option than PLA or even PLA+ though PETG would work fine. I have watched PLA+ melt from a simply blow dryer. Printing in Carbon Fiber is nice but used to print vent shrouds may make them a bit more expensive then needed when PETG will solve the problem as well as ABS or ASA filament.
