Technical UltiMaker Chemical name Description Polylactic acid Ultimaker PLA filament provides a no-hassle 3D printing experience thanks to its reliability and good surface quality. Our PLA is made from organic and renewable sources. It's safe, easy to print with and it serves a wide range of applications for both novice and advanced users. Good tensile strength and surface quality, easy to work with at high print speeds, user-friendly for both home and office environments, PLA allows the creation of high-resolution parts. There is a wide range of color options available. Household tools, toys, educational projects, show objects, prototyping, architectural models, as well as lost casting methods to create metal parts. Food contact and in-vivo applications. Long term outdoor usage or applications where the printed part is exposed to temperatures higher than 50 °C.

Notes Properties reported here are average of a typical batch. The 3D printed test specimens were printed in the XY plane, using the normal quality profile in Cura 2.1, an Ultimaker 2+, a 0.4mm nozzle, 90% infill, 210 ˚C nozzle temperature and 60 ˚C build plate temperature. The values are the average of 5 white and 5 black specimens for the tensile, flexural, and impact tests. The Shore hardness D was measured in a 7-mm-thick square printed in the XY plane, using the normal quality profile in Cura 2.5, an Ultimaker 3, a 0.4 mm print core and 100% infill. Ultimaker is constantly working on...
