Description

PolySonic™ High Speed PLA Pro

Color: White (HEX Code - ⌗E2DEDB)
Diameter: 1.75mm
Weight: 1kg

PolySonic™ PLA Pro is a tough PLA that can print high speeds. With its advanced formulation, this filament ensures durable, rugged prints, with an impact strength similar to ABS and bending strength outperforming ASA & PETG.

What are the advantages of using a high speed filament?
Surface quality at high speed
When printing at high speed, the nozzle will actually experience a wide variety of speed going from 0mm/s to the max speed set on the slicer. The higher the max speed, the wider the range of different speeds. The issue is with the printing temperature being the same, the extrusion temperature will vary dramatically leaving difference surface finishes on the print (from glossy to matte because of a phenomenon called: Shark Skin), high speed filament reduces these differences by displaying similar surface finish in a wide range of flow rates.
Additionally, high speed filament will extrude much more consistently within the speed range providing a smooth surface whereas regular filament will display holes, artifacts and layers with different thicknesses.
Mechanical properties at high speed
High speed filament will display far greater overall mechanical properties when printed at higher speed than regular filament because of the more consistent extrusion and the optimized cooling/melting rate of the polymer.
Higher throughput
Thanks to 1) and 2), you are able to output the same quality part at a much higher pace from your 3D printer.
