PLA Matte HS
PLA Matte HS is aimed at anyone looking for a matte and aesthetic finish in their prints. The matte surface of this filament nicely hides the layer lines, which further enhances the appearance of the printed object. PLA Matte HS is easy to print, has excellent first-layer adhesion and can be used to print at speeds of up to 500mm/s.
Printing Recommendations
- For the best results, print at 205–255°C*.
- You do not need a heated bed however, we recommend preheating your printing table to 50–60°C.
- Use a glass bed, PEI sheet, Kapton, or Blue tape for the build platform with 3Dlac spray.
*Ideal temperature may vary when using different printers.
Applications
Easy to print
The PLA Matte HS collection is ideal for beginners, as it is easy to print. Despite its ease of use, PLA Matte HS has improved aesthetic properties compared to regular PLA, which makes it suitable for various applications such as decorations.
Consistent matte surface finish
The filaments in the Matte collection have a characteristic matte surface, which makes it possible to hide the lines of the layers. Try PLA Matte HS and enjoy the professional look of your prints.
High-speed printing
The possibility of printing at a speed of up to 500mm/s allows you to create quickly and efficiently. The printing speed does not affect the mechanical properties of the filament and does not change the matte appearance of the final object.
Less visible layer lines
The PLA Matte HS collection is specifically designed to provide less visibility of layer lines, a common challenge in 3D printing. This feature is particularly useful for applications where aesthetics are paramount. The reduced need for post-processing enables the creation of beautiful architectural models, decorations and prototypes.
Excellent first-layer adhesion
The grip on the print bed is crucial as it affects the stability and quality of the print. PLA Matte HS excels in this area as the prints adhere well to the build plate throughout the printing process. This also reduces the need for additional adhesion, such as glues, tapes or sprays, which can complicate the installation and cleaning process.
Product Storage
We recommend storing the filament in a cool, dry enclosed space with a silica desiccant packet, away from UV light.
