The PLA Metallic filament from the Panchroma collection offers a visually striking finish, designed to replicate the brilliance of metal. This filament features a unique glitter powder that mimics the reflective shine of metallic surfaces, giving prints a shimmering effect that enhances the aesthetic value of any project. The fine texture of the powder ensures that the risk of nozzle clogging is minimal, even when using a standard 0.4 mm nozzle or smaller, making it a reliable choice for high-quality metallic-looking prints.

Part of the Panchroma range, PLA Metallic is engineered to deliver both impressive visual effects and exceptional printability. The glitter powder integrated into the filament creates a dazzling metallic sheen, making it ideal for decorative objects, prototypes, or any design requiring a premium, high-end finish. Whether used for functional parts or artistic creations, PLA Metallic elevates the overall appearance of 3D printed models with its rich, eye-catching surface.

Printing with PLA Metallic is simple and efficient, with a recommended extrusion temperature range of 190-230 ºC and a bed temperature of 25-60 ºC. The filament supports print speeds of up to 200 mm/s, offering flexibility for both high-speed and detailed prints. The spool design includes an anti-slip edge, ensuring smooth operation when used with automatic material handling systems like the Bambu Lab AMS, making it an adaptable and reliable choice for a wide range of 3D printing applications.

Like any 3D printing filament, the Panchroma PLA filaments should be stored properly in order to avoid their deterioration and, in consequence, extrusion problems and inferior print quality. The spool can be stored in an airtight plastic bag, in a resealable bag with a desiccant capsule, or in a smart filament container. If the filament has absorbed too much moisture, it must be dried before printing in a filament dryer for 6 hours at 55 ºC or in the PolyDryer solution. The recommended settings are setting 1 for Panchroma PLA Silk and others, and settings 1-3 for PLA Matte and Satin.

The Panchroma PLA filaments should be extruded at a temperature of 190-230 ºC on a bed heated to 25-60 ºC. It is recommended to use the cooling fan at 100% but a printer with a heated chamber is not needed. As far as the printing speed, it is recommended to use max. 200 mm/s for the PLA Silk and other Panchroma PLA varieties, max. 300 mm/s for the PLA Satin and Matte PLA, and max. 400 mm/s for CoPE.

Complex parts can be 3D printed with the Panchroma PLA filaments with the help of support filaments such as the PolySupport filament or the PolyDissolve S1 filament.

Panchroma PLA Glow and Panchroma PLA Luminous are glow-in-the-dark materials enriched with an abrasive additive, making a hardened nozzle essential for printing. These filaments should not be used in AMS systems with plastic gears or tubes due to their abrasive nature.

Extra Tools to Enhance the Printing Experience

To further facilitate the 3D printing experience, support tools such as app.polymaker.com, an interactive comparison tool for mechanical, technical, and color properties among different filaments, and wiki.polymaker.com, a quick and comprehensive guide on using our products and 3D printing recommendations, can be utilized.
