PLA Premium
Highest available grade PLA
The most commonly used and popular filament. Very easy to print especially for large objects. Has a relatively high stiffness but more brittle than other filaments.
Compatibility:
FELIX Tec series, Pro series
PLA Premium filament is manufactured from PLA Ingeo 3D870 resin, a biodegradable material specifically designed for 3D printing by NatureWorks, a world leader in biopolymers manufacturing.
This filament has superior thermal and mechanical performance compared to regular PLA, being comparable to ABS, maintaining the ease of printing of PLA without the emission of toxic vapors of ABS.
To achieve its maximum performances, post-processing of printed parts is recommended. This process allows its softening temperature to be increased up to 85oC (much higher than any standard PLA) and its impact resistance (5 times more resistant than ABS).
Ideal for the manufacture of parts for industrial applications that require high mechanical and thermal performance. It is available in several colours with a high gloss and excellent opacity.
PLA at a glance:
- Tougher and less brittle compared to regular PLA
- After annealing it can have similar properties to ABS
- Easy to print at low temperature
- Low warping
- Biodegradable
- Limited smell
