PLA is one of the most commonly used materials for 3D printing. Another material often used in this area is ABS, but it has higher printing requirements than PLA. PLA is an ideal material for beginners due to its easy printability. It has a low thermal expansion, allowing large parts to be printed without the need for a heated chamber or pad. PLA also has the significant advantage of being fully biodegradable, as it is made from renewable resources such as corn or potato starch. PLA is also often used as a support material in 3D printers with multiple extruders.
Main features:
- Easy to set up for printing
