Description: Spectrum PLA Thermoactive 1,75 mm 1 kg - Red
Thermoactive PLA material is based on pure PLA with an addition of thermochromic pigment. This additive causes the 3D printer to change its colour under the influence of a specific temperature. The diameter of the filament is 1.75 mm. The material is wound on a transparent spool and vacuum packed.
In the case of Spectrum Thermoactive PLA product, it is the change of colour from red to cream when the surface temperature exceeds 30°C. The red colour returns gradually once the component reaches a lower temperature (below 30°C).
In our offer of filaments you will also find other materials and colors.
Properties of PLA Thermoactive
- The material is made from biodegradable materials
- Printing is possible without a heated table
- Colour change of the material above 30°C
- Highly resistant to stretching and abrasion
- Printed parts are rigid and easy to handle
- Models do not shrink after cooling
Suggested parameters for printing with the filament
Printing temperature | From 190°C to 220°C |
Heated table | From 0°C to 45°C |
Printing speed | From 40 to 110 mm/sec. |
Due to differences in printer construction, the above data should be treated as guidelines, and the relevant values should be determined experimentally. |
