- Good for
Lightweight PLA is a type of lightweight 3D printing material specially developed for aircraft model, ship model, drone and other fields.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 1 - Benefits
Lightweight PLA is a PLA filament that will start foaming with the aid of a blowing agent during the printing process.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 1 - Benefits
With this technique, it is easy to reduce the weight of the model.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 1 - Benefits
In the best-case scenario, the model weight can be reduced to 50% of a model printed with ordinary PLA.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 1 - Surface finish
In addition to that, the matte texture of the printed surface can reduce the visibility of printed layers and thus give a smooth surface finish.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 1 - Printing advice
During the printing process by adjusting the printing temperature, the foaming ratio of the blowing agent can be easily controlled.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 1 - Pitfalls and limitations
Since Light Weight PLA adopts the "On-Demand foaming" technology, the filament will continue to expand in the nozzle after being heated during the printing process.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 3 - Pitfalls and limitations
Therefore, it will cause unavoidable stringing during the nozzle movement.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 3 - Pitfalls and limitations
E ven adjusting the retraction setting in the slicing software cannot solve this problem.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 3 - Printing advice
Based on the above, it is recommend ed to turn off the retraction setting.
iSANMATE, Light Weight PLA Filament Technical Data Sheetp. 3 - Printing advice
The string on the surface of models can easily be removed by hand.

- Printing advice
The foaming agent is activated at temperature of ±230˚C, and can increase the relative volume of the PLA up to 3 times its original size.
colorFabb, Technical datasheet Light Weight PLA (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Printing advice
By decreasing the flow to 65%, light weight parts can be achieved.
colorFabb, Technical datasheet Light Weight PLA (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Printing advice
By using big layer heights, or single extra thick perimeter, the expanding properties can effectively reduce print time.
colorFabb, Technical datasheet Light Weight PLA (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Printing advice
At around 230C this material will start foaming, increasing its volume by nearly 3 times.

The LW-PLA-HT is an excellent filament for printing RC Planes, Cosplay, and other light weight items.
a document with no title recordedp. 1 - Benefits
Light Weight PLA-HT has a formulation featuring an increased temperature resistance compared to generic LW-PLA.
a document with no title recordedp. 1 - Benefits
Thinly printed structures will be able to handle heat from external sources at prologues exposure.
a document with no title recordedp. 1 - Printing advice
For printing thin structure (such as for RC plane parts), it is recommended to print the first layer at 100% flow using 200˚C nozzle temperatures.
a document with no title recordedp. 2 - Printing advice
Increasing the temperature for the second layer (roughly 235˚C) to activate the foaming, and reduce the flow to 50-60% for maximum results.

Ideal material for model airplanes
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Benefits
Lightweight polyactide is a polymer that expands during 3D printing.
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Benefits
With the active foaming technology, parts can be achieved with a weight reduction of up to 70%.
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Benefits
With a spool of LW-PLA you can print up to 3 times more parts than with a spool of standard PLA due to the reduced flow factor
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Pitfalls and limitations
Can become soft again from 60 degrees
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Pitfalls and limitations
Thread formation during empty runs can practically not be prevented
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Pitfalls and limitations
Color becomes paler after expansion
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Printing advice
From a temperature of approx. 200 ° C, the material begins to foam.
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Printing advice
The expansion effect increases with increasing temperature.
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Printing advice
The maximum expansion is achieved at a printing temperature of approx. 250-260 ° C. With optimal settings, the flow factor can be reduced to a value of 0.3, which leads to extremely light PLA components.
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Printing advice
A heating bed is advantageous for LW-PLA filament, but not absolutely necessary.
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 1 - Printing advice
Reduce flow or extrusion multiplier
Fabru, Lightweight Polylactide (LW-PLA)p. 3 - Printing advice
The optimal extrusion multiplier must be determined by means of tests.

Good interlayer adhesion
eSUN, ePLA-LW (light weight PLA) Technical Data Sheetp. 1 - Printing advice
The interlayer bonding is stable, and the foaming rate and strength can be controlled by adjusting the printing temperature.
eSUN, ePLA-LW (light weight PLA) Technical Data Sheetp. 1 - Pitfalls and limitations
Yellowing of printed parts after high temperature foaming is a normal phenomenon, and lowering the printing temperature can alleviate it.

Note that the first layer speed setting is consistent with the actual printing speed, set to 100% of the actual printing speed, turn off the first layer, small area printing speed reduction function, the first layer extrusion rate is consistent with the actual foaming extrusion rate, such as 270 degrees Set to 45% of the first layer extrusion rate; if the bottom plate adhesion is too strong, you can set the bottom valve when printing.
eSUN, ePLA-LW (light weight PLA) Technical Data Sheetp. 2 - Printing advice
Most Teflon tube printers cannot be operated for a long time above 250°C. Long-term printing above this temperature may cause blockages.
eSUN, ePLA-LW (light weight PLA) Technical Data Sheetp. 2 - Printing advice
If the temperature exceeds 250°C, high temperature printers such as metal hoses are required for printing.
