 3D printing technology is gradually applied in many fields, and the corresponding  3D printer filament s are also increasing. For example, understanding different types of 3D printing filaments and their influencing factors is of great significance for selecting suitable 3d filaments and improving printing quality. 1. Types of 3D printer filaments The types of 3D printing filaments include plastics, metals, biologicals, ceramics, and hybrids, among which plastics are the most common choices, such as Acrylnitrole Butadiene Styrene (ABS), Polylactic Acid (PLA), Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG). These plastics have different properties. For example, ABS filament has high toughness and impact resistance, while  PLA filament  has the advantages of easy printing and environmental protection. 2. Factors affecting 3D printer filaments The factors affecting  3D printing filament s are mainly divided into two aspects, one is the printer hardware factor, and the o...

 Some high-performance and strong  3d printer filaments  require high-temperature printing, which means that not all desktop devices can use these 3d printing materials to make parts. However, the equipment selected for printing and the skill of the owner/operator play an important role in determining the finished product, including: 1. Item Strength - There are a number of factors that can help or damage a strong and reliable material and print structure. Too low or too high a temperature, insufficient cooling or standing, can make even filaments like PET, ABS and Ultem brittle, split, warp or twist. In addition to 3d printing materials that can withstand stress, under adverse printing conditions, the 3d printer filaments cannot be tightly bound together and the printing will fail. 2. Surface quality – In addition to temperature, there are also cutting settings, nozzle types, and machine configurations (such as material delivery type and speed), which if not set correctl...
