Looking for Bambu Lab PLA Basic Gradient Filament in Australia? This filament features a soft bicolor gradient appearance, creating a vibrant and eye - catching visual effect on printed models. It's perfect for printing cute toys or beautiful decorations with its gradient colors. You can print at high speeds up to 300mm/s (with 0.4mm nozzle) while still getting a delicate finish. The gradient filament has excellent layer adhesion. As a new color option in the PLA Basic series, it offers stronger layer adhesion and toughness, reducing the risk of printed parts breaking. Its Z - layer performance is also outstanding, with an impact strength of 23.8 kJ/m², a 261% improvement over normal matte PLA. Recommended printing settings include drying at 55 °C for 8 h, keeping container humidity below 20% RH, nozzle temperature between 190 - 230 °C, bed temperature (with PVP glue) at 35 - 45 °C, and printing speed below 300 mm/s. Physically, it has a density of 1.24 g/cm³, a Vicar softening temperature of 57 °C, a heat deflection temperature of 57 °C, a melting temperature of 160 °C, and a melt index of 42.4 ± 3.5 g/10 min. Mechanically, it has a tensile strength of 36 ± 2 MPa, a breaking elongation rate of 15.2 ± 0.5 %, a bending modulus of 2270 ± 60 MPa, a bending strength of 73 ± 3 MPa, and an impact strength of 61.2 ± 2.8 kJ/m². For printing, use the default PLA Basic setting and set a lower printing speed for better quality. The gradient length is 8 - 10 meters. Each package includes 1x filament with spool & desiccant and 1x filament label.
Using this Bambu Lab PLA Basic Gradient Filament is easy. First, dry the filament at 55 °C for 8 hours before printing. Make sure to keep the container's humidity below 20% RH by sealing it with a desiccant. Set your nozzle temperature between 190 - 230 °C and the bed temperature (with PVP glue) at 35 - 45 °C. You can print at speeds up to 300mm/s, but for better quality, it's a good idea to set a lower printing speed. Since it's a new color option in the PLA Basic series, you can use the default PLA Basic settings for printing. When it comes to maintenance, always store the filament in a dry place to prevent it from absorbing moisture. Keep an eye on the gradient length, which is 8 - 10 meters. If you notice any issues with layer adhesion or the finish of your print, double - check your settings and make sure the filament is properly dried.
