Volcano PLA

Volcano PLA (polylactic acid) is an industrial-grade PLA designed for professionals. It is ideal for applications that require high printing speeds.

It has improved thermal and mechanical resistance, with properties similar to ABS. The mechanical and thermal properties are maintained after extrusion.

Applications

• Tooling
• Functional prototyping
• Mechanical components
• Finished products
• Manufacturing Aids
• Small batch production

Key Features

• High heat resistance of ≥ 95°C after extrusion
• Shrinkage less than 0.3% after extrusion
  • Approximately 8 times less shrinkage than competitive materials available on the market
  • Designed for excellent dimensional accuracy before and after extrusion
• Designed for high printing speeds > 120mm/s
• Highly crystalline immediately after extrusion resulting in increased stiffness and temperature resistance
• Excellent mechanical properties comparable to ABS
• Excellent interlayer adhesion and matte surface finish
• Compatible with HeliosSupport for complex multi-extrusion 3D printing
• Biodegradable
