Panchroma™ Matte PLA (Formerly PolyTerra™ PLA) Filament 1.75mm 1kg

In 2025, PolyTerra PLA™ will be rebranded to become Panchroma™ Matte PLA. PolyTerra™ PLA is a matte surface PLA-based 3D printing filament with a huge range of colours and effects to choose from. It is a sustainably sourced formula developed to be easy to print with great bridging & overhang capability. It can print in a very wide temperature window and is compatible with most extrusion-based 3D printers. This spool does fit in the A1 / X1 AMS system. Density: 1.37g/cm³ Matte Surface & Fun Colours - Print parts with a beautiful matte surface finish and unleash your imagination with PolyTerra™ PLA's fun and vibrant colour range. PolyTerra™ PLA renders models with excellent surface quality and features great overhang and bridging capability. Optimized for Support - PolyTerra™ PLA has been engineered with excellent support removal properties, enabling users to more easily break away support or rafts from the surface of their prints. Easy Sanding - PolyTerra™ PLA is softer and easier to sand in comparison to regular PLA filaments and can be easily painted. High Speed Capable - Polymaker have engineered the base PolyTerra™ PLA formula with ideal flow properties to deliver a filament which is capable of high speed printing (only on suitable hardware) Bioplastic Matte PLA Formula - PolyTerra™ PLA is based on a newly developed material from Polymaker called FBC (Fully Bio Compound). It is a compound of high quality Ingeo PLA compounded with naturally occurring elements. The result is a PLA filament with less plastic content that feels softer and more ductile / less brittle on the spool. Polymakers FBC formula contains less PLA plastic to degrade which improves the speed of degradation under specific industrial conditions. Like other PLA's, the degradation rate is still very slow in ambient temperatures. Ductility (X-Y) - PolyTerra™ PLA is softer than regular PLA, delivering improved ductility in the horizontal X-Y axis than standard PLA formulations. Whereas a test bar in standard PLA will snap when bent, PolyTerra™ PLA will tend to gradually bend and fracture in the horizontal axis. Improved Ductility - PolyTerra™ PLA delivers improved ductility which is less brittle (Charpy Impact) in X-Y axis than standard PLA formulations. Compatibility / Jam-Free™- PolyTerra™ PLA is compatible with a wide range of 3D printers and is manufactured with Polymakers Jam-Free™ technology which leads to excellent printing quality with zero risk of nozzle jams caused by heat creep [1]. PolyTerra™ PLA works well on many printing surfaces with a thin layer of glue stick applied, no heated bed is required but can be used at 40 - 50°C for better results (maximum 60°C). Uncompromised Quality - PolyTerra™ PLA filament is made with the highest quality ingredients including Ingeo® from Natureworks; a high quality PLA material produced from rapidly renewable plant resources in the US. Combining Polymakers innovative R&D technologies, compounding and extrusion systems with Natureworks Ingeo® resins produces a reliable 3D printing filament to print beautiful and accurate models. [1] Heat creep is the the process of heat spreading irregularly throughout the hot end, one common example is with all metal hot end designs. Once heat creeps towards the cold end, the PLA filament softens prematurely in the cold end and expands resulting in a jam. Polymakers Jam-Free™ technology increases the heat resistance of the filament itself (not the printed part) to 100˚C which prevents the filament from prematurely softening in the cold end and can still melt rapidly once entering the heating zone. Printing Settings Nozzle Temperature 190°C - 230°C Build Plate Temperature 25°C - 60°C**You may find lower bed temperatures (i.e 45°C) work better with PolyTerra™ PLA in comparison to higher temperatures. Build Surface Material Works well with most common build surfaces. Build Surface Treatment Typically none required. Some surfaces such as glass work best with PVA glue stick. Cooling Fan ON Printing Speed 30 mm/s - 70 mm/s Retraction The ideal retraction settings vary from printer to printer. If you find the retraction settings are causing gaps in your part, the following settings may help.Direct Drive: Retraction distance of 0.5 - 1mm with retraction speed of 20mm/sBowden: Retraction distance of 2 - 3mm with retraction speed of 20 - 40mm/s Recommended Support Material Single Extrusion:Self SupportDual Extrusion:PolySupport™ (Easy break-away support material) Based on 0.4 mm nozzle. Printing conditions may vary with different printers and nozzle diameters. To produce flatter more dimensionally accurate parts, PolyTerra™ PLA may work best on your printer with lower bed temperatures (i.e 45 - 50°C) compared to higher temperatures (i.e 55 - 60°C +) .
