The PLA Lite filament 1.75 mm has been developed to offer simple, stable, and high-quality printing on any FDM 3D printer. To achieve a professional finish and excellent layer adhesion, it is recommended to carefully adjust the printing parameters according to the material’s technical specifications.

Ideal printing temperature

The recommended nozzle temperature is between 195 and 220 °C, depending on the type of 3D printer and the level of model detail. A lower temperature promotes a better surface finish on small parts, while settings closer to 220 °C ensure more stable extrusion on large-volume prints.

Bed temperature and adhesion

For optimal adhesion, the heated bed should be maintained between 40 and 50 °C. Although this filament offers excellent grip on clean glass or PEI surfaces, adhesion can be further improved using specialized adhesives such as Dimafix, 3DLac or Magigoo, especially on large or wide-base prints. These products help prevent warping and ensure perfect bed adhesion throughout the printing process.

Printing speed and cooling

PLA Lite allows working with a wide printing speed range between 40 and 250 mm/s, making it a versatile filament suitable for both rapid prototyping and high-precision models. For best results on fine details or complex geometries, it is recommended to print at moderate speeds and keep the layer fan active up to 100% to ensure uniform cooling and superior surface quality.

Environment and maintenance

PLA Lite does not require a closed chamber, simplifying its use in home and educational environments. Its heat resistance reaches 55 °C, making it suitable for most standard 3D printing applications. Additionally, it does not require pre-drying, as it has low moisture absorption. It is advisable to store the filament in a dry, shaded place to maintain its quality over time.

Compatibility and durability

With a density of 1.24 g/cm³ and manufacturing compliant with RoHS and REACH standards, this filament guarantees a safe and reliable printing experience. It does not require ruby or hardened nozzles, since its non-abrasive composition is fully compatible with standard brass nozzles, ensuring long equipment life without premature wear.
