3D printing PLA material

 

PLA (Poly Lactice Acid) is a new type of biodegradable material. It can be processed from starch raw materials , and the production process is pollution-free and can be degraded.

Material advantages:

Directly degradable environmentally friendly bioplastics, low melting point, small shrinkage ratio, not easy to warp or deform, good printing flatness, suitable for models that do not require processing.

Material weaknesses:

Temperatures above 60°C will deform PLA materials. PLA material is fragile and cannot be used to make handles for tools or parts that will drop repeatedly.

Precision:

0.2mm

Application:

Auto electronic lamps and other parts production.

Can be used for lens packaging fluid analysis RTV mold durable concept model wind test and other practical production activities

Note:

PLA can break if it is slightly bent and is not suitable for making thin things.

The Advantage And The Disadvantage Of SLA 3D Printing

We usually will use 3D printing process for making industrial prototype.Below is some feature of 3d printing for reference.

Advantage:
1.SLA 3d printing has more development experience,which is more mature than other 3D printing process and be use widely.
2.SLA 3d printing has more prototyping time and more stable working system.
3.The precision of parts by SLA printing will be more high than SLS 3d printing.
4.The surface of parts by SLA 3d printing will be better than SLS 3d printing.
5.SLA 3d printing can print big dimension model.
Disvantage:
1.The model of SLA printing need the structure supported.
2.Unless to use the high temperature resistant resin as material, otherwise the machining temperature can not exceed 100℃ because the normal resin will melt if the temperature are too high.

What Material Can be Use For 3D Printing?

/in , /by

3D printing is a technology that we usually use in making prototyping.According to the different requirement of prototype,that different material with different specification is need.There is some material as below that can be use in 3D printing.

1.Polymer Material
With good strength,impact resistance and heat resistance,polimer material is a most widely used of 3D printing materials,which usually be use to make industrial parts.The common polymer material we use is ABS,PA,PC,PEEK,etc.

2.Metal Material
The form of metal material for 3D printing is metal powders,metal foil and metal wire.We can print these metal material by SLS,DMLS and EMB 3D pritning machine.

3.Ceramic Material.
Ceramic material with high strength,high hardness,low density and chemical resistance,is usually be use as aviation,car and home decoration material.

4.Composite Material
Carbon fiber is a emerging 3D printing material,with nice high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance
