PLA is one of the most popular 3D printing plastics because it is easy to print and suitable even for beginners. It holds its shape well, has a neat surface, and usually does not require complex settings. PLA is especially convenient for prototypes, decorations, figurines, holders, and many everyday parts. If you want a stable result without a lot of testing, PLA is a safe choice.
The filament diameter is 1.75 mm, and the manufacturing tolerance is ±0.03 mm, so the feed is even and it is easier to maintain a uniform layer. PLA has good detail, "sits" nicely on the layer and allows you to get clean edges.
Precise dimensional control helps maintain a stable feed, resulting in smoother and more predictable printing. Smooth printing means less jerking, a nicer surface, and fewer „unexpected“ parts on longer projects. Fewer threads between parts and less tendency to warp helps produce a cleaner result, especially in corners. „Bubble-free“ means the plastic melts and flows evenly, resulting in fewer bumps or small „pimples“ on the surface of the print.
This 1.75 mm PLA plastic is suitable for most FDM / FFF type 3D printers. It works well with both open structures and closed chambers, as PLA is generally "friendly" for printing. If your printer supports PLA profiles - to get started, basic settings and minor adjustments based on the result are usually enough. This is a universal choice when you want simple and stable printing.
The recommended nozzle temperature for PLA printing is 190–220°C, and usually the „golden mean“ is around 200–210°C. The temperature of the print bed depends on the surface, but in most cases 45–60°C is suitable, or even printing without heating if the adhesion is good. If you see filaments, reduce the temperature or increase the retraction, and if the layers are not adhering well, increase the temperature a little. And one more thing: PLA does not like moisture, so store it tightly.
