Component Name

1.75mm Brown PLA Filament - 1Kg

Description

The 1.75mm Brown PLA Filament - 1Kg is a type of thermoplastic filament used in 3D printing technology, specifically designed for Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) printers. This filament is a versatile and eco-friendly material, made from Polylactic Acid (PLA), a biodegradable polyester derived from renewable resources such as corn starch or sugarcane.

Functionality

The primary function of the 1.75mm Brown PLA Filament - 1Kg is to provide a feedstock material for 3D printing, allowing users to create three-dimensional objects with high accuracy and detail. When melted and extruded through a heated nozzle, the filament solidifies rapidly, bonding with previously laid layers to form a solid, durable, and rigid structure.

Key Features

  • Diameter: 1.75mm, compatible with most FDM 3D printers.
  • Material: Polylactic Acid (PLA), a biodegradable and eco-friendly thermoplastic.
  • Color: Brown, providing a natural, earthy aesthetic to printed objects.
  • Weight: 1 kg (1000 grams), sufficient for printing a variety of objects of varying sizes.
  • Melting Point: 190C - 220C (374F - 428F), suitable for most FDM printers.
  • Tolerance: 0.05mm, ensuring accurate and consistent layer deposition.
  • Spool Size: Standard 1 kg spool, making it easy to handle and store.
  • Printing Temperature: Recommended temperature range: 200C - 210C (392F - 410F).
  • Bed Adhesion: Good adhesion to standard 3D printing surfaces, such as glass or BuildTak.
  • Toxicity: PLA is a non-toxic, environmentally friendly material, safe for use in home and office environments.

Advantages

Eco-friendly and biodegradable material

Low warping and shrinkage rates

Good layer adhesion and surface finish

Odorless and non-toxic

Compatible with a wide range of FDM 3D printers

Applications

The 1.75mm Brown PLA Filament - 1Kg is suitable for a variety of applications, including

Prototyping and model making

Artistic and creative projects

Educational and research purposes

Production of functional parts and tools

Hobbyist and consumer-level 3D printing projects

Storage and Handling

To ensure optimal performance and shelf life, store the filament in a dry, cool environment away from direct sunlight. Avoid exposing the filament to moisture, as it can absorb water and affect print quality. Handle the spool with care to prevent tangling and kinking.

Warranty and Support

This product is backed by a manufacturer's warranty, covering defects in material and workmanship. Technical support and resources are available through the manufacturer's website or authorized distributors.

Pin Configuration

  • Component Overview
  • The 1.75mm Brown PLA Filament - 1Kg is a type of filament used in 3D printing. It does not have pins, as it is a physical material used to create objects layer by layer in a 3D printer.
  • Error: No Pins to Explain
  • As the component is a filament, it does not have any pins or electrical connections. It is a consumable material that is fed into a 3D printer to create objects.
  • Connection Guide (Not Applicable)
  • Since the component does not have pins, there is no connection guide to provide.
  • Usage Guide
  • To use the 1.75mm Brown PLA Filament - 1Kg, follow these steps:
  • 1. Unload the existing filament: Remove any existing filament from the 3D printer's extruder.
  • 2. Cut the filament: Cut the PLA filament to the desired length using a pair of scissors or a filament cutter.
  • 3. Load the filament: Feed the PLA filament into the 3D printer's extruder, following the manufacturer's instructions.
  • 4. Heat the extruder: Heat the extruder to the recommended temperature for PLA filament (usually around 200C).
  • 5. Start printing: Begin the 3D printing process according to the 3D printer's settings and instructions.
  • Important Notes
  • Handle the filament with care to avoid damaging or kinking it.
  • Store the filament in a dry, cool place to maintain its quality.
  • Follow the 3D printer manufacturer's guidelines for using PLA filament, including temperature and printing speed settings.
  • If you have any questions or concerns about using the 1.75mm Brown PLA Filament - 1Kg, please consult the 3D printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer's support team.
