PLA is a biodegradable thermoplastic polymer, that is produced out of renewable resources.
Thanks to the low extrusion temperature, no need for heating the build plate and ease of models post-processing, PLA is one of the most popular thermoplastics used in 3D printing. Printed models have highly saturated colours and glossy surfaces. There is a wide range of PLA colors available in the 3DGence offer.
PLA is not resistant to increased temperatures as well as have very limited resistance for all aggressive chemical substances.
Low volume production
Additive manufacturing is frequently more cost-effective than other legacy manufacturing methods, allowing the rapid production of end-use parts at scale, reducing tooling and inventory costs and accelerating the time tp market.
End Use Parts
In many instances the mechanical properties and surface characteristics of 3D printed parts meet and exceed the customer’s expectation, allowing their use in the actual product.
Prior to launching mass production, engineering and designers benefit from 3D printing functional prototypes that can help verify fit, functionality and optimum integration with other components, accelerating the iterative development cycle and time to market.
