Top-Quality Raw Materials

NatureWorks is an American company and one of the largest and most renowned producers of biopolymers in the world, primarily known for polylactic acid (PLA). Their flagship product, Ingeo™ PLA, is made from renewable plant-based resources such as corn starch. This polymer stands out for its consistent composition, low impurity levels, and excellent control over physicochemical parameters, which guarantees the quality of the final product – 3D printing filament. NatureWorks PLA is highly stable during processing: it doesn’t clog nozzles, has a consistent melting point, and is minimally prone to warping. This makes it an ideal material for both beginners and advanced users.

How to print FiberSilk?

The following parameters are only suggested print settings for this material.
To ensure the best print quality, it is necessary to choose the appropriate settings for a specific printer and printing conditions.

• Nozzle Temperature: 210-230°C
• Bed Temperature: 50-70°C
• Closed chamber: not required
• Fan: 75-100%
• Flowrate: 90-100%
• Printing Speed: 35-60 mm/s
• Surface:
  • Smooth PEI + masking tape or adhesive
  • Textured PEI + adhesive
  • Glass + masking tape or adhesive
• Drying conditions: 40°C / 4h

Notes

• There is a visible swelling of the material exiting the nozzle while loading the filament or printing with it.
  This is a completely natural effect that results from the surface tension of the polymers making up the filament.
• Due to the strong adhesion, damage to the bed surface (eg PEI) may occur. We recommend printing on a tape.
