colorFabb PLA/PHA Filament 2.85mm X 750g spool

colorFabb

$ 38.99

Colorfabb developed its own unique blend of PLA/PHA which results in a tougher and less brittle PLA 3d printing filament. PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoate) is like PLA a bio-polyester, so our unique blend is still 100% biodegradeable and compostable.  The addition of PHA makes the material a little more opaque than standard PLA, which results in very vibrant colors.  It is printed at similar temperatures and extrusion settings to other PLA and can be printed on any printer that can print in regular PLA and prints smoothly.

In addition to the unique properties of the material, this filament is made to extremely high quality standards.  Diameter is maintained at 2.85mm +/- 0.05mm with many operators reporting no measurable variation in diameter.

This listing is for opaque colorFabb colors containing pure PLA/PHA.

We also offer  translucent colors, wood filled, metal filled, phosphorescent glow in the dark powder filled, and _XT PET copolyester filaments from colorFabb.

Each spool contains a minimum of 750g filament neatly wound onto a large diameter spool.

colorFabb nGen Filament

Similar to XT, NGEN is a copolyester developed in partnership with colorFabb and the Eastman Chemical Company.  It is part of the Amphora 3D™ line of Eastman polymers.  

In 2013 Eastman and Helian Polymers entered a joint development program in order to develop new unique 3D Printing materials for Desktop 3D Printing.  Many formulations of specialty polyesters have been tested for functionality, printability and safe printing.

NGEN provides the following benefits:

• Use temperature of printed parts is good to about 85C (HDT for polymer people).
• Lower printing temperature than most specialty filaments.  At a printing temperature of around 220C, all desktop printers can handle this material.  
• Works best with a 70C build plate, but we've found it sticks well to cold GeckoTek RT and Buildtak in all but the largest/densest part configurations.
• Prints easy like PLA, but flows through the nozzle easily like ABS.  Warping is low.
• Layer adhesion is amazing.
• No odor during printing.  
• More durable and tougher than PLA and PLA/PHA (but not quite as tough as XT).  Mechanical properties remain stable over time.
• Properties of printed part maintain a significant percentage of mechanical properties of the molded / extruded material, so this is a great option for printing simulations of parts that will be injection molded in a copolyester.  
• Colors, colors, colors!  Lots of options are available.  Contact us if you have a large need for a custom color and we'll see what we can do!  

Advised 3D printing temperature:
220-240C - Varies by hot end type.  If infill is breaking apart, you will need to decrease speed or increase temperature.  

Advised 3D print speed:
40 - 70 mm/s - Varies by hot end type.  If infill is breaking apart, you will need to decrease speed or increase temperature.

Advised Heated bed:
60-80C

Build platform:
For colorFabb_XT we advice to print on a heated bed. After printing, the build plate needs to cool down to about 20-30 C at which point you can remove the printed part.

Some users with Borosilicate Glass beds have reported taking chips out of the bed with copolyesters.  Here is a solution to consider if that happens to you.  

Information:

Each spool contains a minimum of 750g filament neatly wound onto a large diameter spool.   The spools are shrinkwrapped, boxed, and then shrinkwrapped again.

So, you’ve heard all about how awesome colorFabb filament is.  You really want to try it, but just can’t bring yourself to shell out the cash (or bitcoin) to invest in full spools. We have a solution. Sample packs. Each sample contains the equivalent of approximately 50g of PLA coiled and secured with a zip tie.  This amounts to roughly 16m of 1.75mm filament or a little under 6m of 2.85mm filament.  

A little bit of fine print about our sample packs:

• At this time, we are only offering samples based on material type; we are not offering choice on color selection.  Colors are based on whatever we have open at the time the order is placed.  
• Samples are made up ahead of time, so if you order two samples, you will receive two samples and not one long sample.
• Sample packs will have a lead time of up to about 5 business days.  Any orders containing samples packs will be held until the samples are ready.  So, if you are in a rush, you may want to consider placing sample pack orders in a separate order from anything else.
