Improved classic, even easier to print than ever before!
PLA+ (polylactic acid)
– improved printing properties compared to standard PLA:
- lower printing temperature 195 °C – great for bridging and printing overhangs
- higher adhesion of layers and impact toughness – ie. that the printed object is more flexible when bending
- higher viscosity = doesn’t clog the nozzle
- the material withstands insufficient cooling of the printer in a warm environment (for example in the summer months), precisely because of the lower printing temperatures used and the higher viscosity
- is suitable for 3D pens, again due to lower temperatures
- has an attractive matte finish
- is offered in the classic Black&White and in the modern Pastel edition
