Looking for the right set up for carbon

Hey

Im planig to print parts for juggeling equipment out of carbon filaments.
I want to start with Carbon-PETG and try Carbon-Nylon and Carvon-Pc later on. (if possible even some that need alot more heat when i got the setup)

Im Printing with at the moment with the standat MK3 setup, i will need @ lest a diffrent nozzel, and there for im looking for more information.
Is a Harded Steel nozzel enough?Maybe the Solex Everlast ore shut i infest in the Olsson Rubby? im tempted to go with the Olsson.

Are there more things i need to uppgrade for printing mainly Carbon Filaments? BuildTak Printplates for warping when i try Nylon-Carbon for Warping?
On wich temprature i will need a new hotend? for stuff like (Carbon-Ultem-PEI)

Im planig to upgrade to MMU2 is there somebody that got experience with Printing carbon and flexible fillaments in one print?

And like the most off you im rly waiting for the powder coated sheet, shut i wait for Prusa´s sheet ore shut i buy the expensiv THEKKIINNGG sheet?

Thanks in advance, hope you could handle my english 🙂

I have one of these in 0.4mm on order since mid December to me it looks like a better bet than the rather fragile ruby
