introduction
PLA Plus filament is an improved version of traditional PLA filament, offering a combination of ease of printing and high quality with improvements in durability and flexibility. If you are looking for a printing material that delivers outstanding performance, PLA Plus is the ideal choice for you.
What is PLA Plus filament?
PLA Plus filament is an advanced polymeric material based on PLA, but with additives that enhance its physical properties. PLA Plus retains the environmental properties of PLA, as it is biodegradable and made from natural sources.
Benefits of using PLA Plus filament
1. Easy to print
Like traditional PLA, PLA Plus filament is easy to print, making it suitable for beginners and professionals alike.
2. Improved durability
PLA Plus has greater durability compared to traditional PLA, making it more resistant to breakage and deformation.
3. Better flexibility
PLA Plus filament has higher flexibility, allowing it to be used in applications requiring strength and torsion.
4. Environmentally friendly
PLA Plus retains the environmental properties of PLA, is made from natural materials and is biodegradable.
Uses of PLA Plus filament
1. Powerful prototyping
Thanks to its high durability, PLA Plus is used to create prototypes that need to withstand pressure and daily use.
2. Tools and accessories
PLA Plus is ideal for printing household items and accessories thanks to its strength and flexibility.
3. Technical and engineering projects
PLA Plus is used for projects that require fine detail and durability, such as art objects and engineering parts.
Tips for printing with PLA Plus filament
1. Printing temperature
The ideal printing temperature for PLA Plus filament is between 200-230°C. Start with a low temperature and increase gradually for best results.
2. Use a heated platform
The heated printing platform can help improve the adhesion of the first layers and reduce distortions.
3. Printing cooling
Using a cooling fan during printing can improve layer quality and contribute to reducing distortion.
