COLORFABB LW-PLA

colorFabb LW-PLA is an expanding PLA that allows less plastic to be used for super light printed parts. This filament will require that you tune both your nozzle temperature and Extrusion multiplier for best results!

Pros

  • Reduce the weight of printed parts up to 65% compared to regular PLA.
  • Control extruded volume of material by regulating printing temperature. At around 230C LW-PLA starts foaming and can increase Its volume by nearly 3 times.
  • With one spool LW-PLA you can print as much as with 3 regular spools of PLA, due to the 3x lower material multiplier / flow.
  • Easy to cut, trim, sand and takes paint really well.
  • LW-PLA (Natural,Black,Gray Silver & Red) hides layer lines really well.

Cons

  • Material oozes on travelmoves, this is normal and can't be reduced completely.
  • Color will turn lighter when material is at maximum foamed state as opposed to non-foamed state which shows a deeper and richer color.

At colorFabb we have a well equipped 3d printing studio with a lot of popular 3d printers. We know our materials will give you excellent results and to help you get these results here are tips and trick for using colorFabb 3d printing filament.
