PLA (polylactic acid) is an excellent material for early concept models due to its ease of use, office-friendly nature, and compatibility with breakaway supports. This makes it a top choice for designers and engineers who need to quickly create and iterate on their designs. PLA is a corn-based plastic and is considered biodegradable under industrial processes, making it an environmentally friendly option for 3D printing.
Key Features
Ease of Use: MakerBot SKETCH PLA is easy to print with, making it ideal for beginners and professionals alike. Its low printing temperature reduces the risk of warping and ensures consistent results.
Office-Friendly: PLA emits low levels of ultrafine particles (UFPs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), making it safe for use in office environments.
Fast Printing with Breakaway Supports: PLA works great with breakaway supports, which print faster and reduces post-processing time.
Biodegradable: As a corn-based plastic, PLA is biodegradable under industrial processes, making it a more sustainable choice for 3D printing.
Compatibility
MakerBot SKETCH PLA is compatible with the following 3D printers:
