Polymaker Polymax PLA 3D Printing Filament (1.75mm) 750g

Product description

Are you looking to buy Polymaker PolyMax PLA Filament in Australia?

PolyMax™ is a family of advanced 3D printing filaments produced with Polymaker’s Nano reinforcement technology, to deliver exceptional mechanical properties and printing quality.  PolyMax™ PLA is an incredibly easy-to-print filament with improved mechanical properties,  making it an excellent alternative to ABS.  

Features:  

∙ Superior Toughness - PolyMax™ PLA is an easy-to-print engineering material which  displays an increased impact strength up to 5 times that of PolyLite™ PLA and 20% better  than ABS. This is achieved through the implementation of Polymakers Nano-reinforcement  technology which dramatically improves impact resistance and fracture toughness of the  material without compromising printing quality.  

∙ Strong, Durable and Ductile – Combining strength, durability and ductility, PolyMax™ PLA  is the perfect candidate for professional & educational environments where product design  iteration requires a reliable prototyping process and a ductile material. Ductility is the ability of  a material to exhibit plastic deformation before fracture, the opposite of ductile materials can  be seen as brittle materials. In simple words, PolyMax™ PLA will bend instead of breaking.  

∙ Jam-Free™ technology - PolyMax™ PLA is manufactured with Polymakers Jam-Free™  technology which improves the heat stability of the filament with softening temperatures over  140°C and leads to excellent printing quality with zero risk of nozzle jams caused by heat  creep [1]. 

∙ Easy-to-print - The outstanding mechanical strength of PolyMax™ PLA is achieved with no  compromise in printing quality. PolyMax™ PLA can be printed without a heated bed and  works well with common printing surfaces, though a heated bed can be used to achieve better  results (maximum 60°C). 

∙ Uncompromised Quality - PolyMax™ PLA filament is made with the highest quality  ingredients including Ingeo® from Natureworks. Natureworks is a world-leading biopolymers  supplier based in the USA with a portfolio of high quality raw PLA materials produced  from rapidly renewable plant resources. Combining Polymakers innovative R&D technologies,  compounding and extrusion systems with Natureworks Ingeo® resins produces a reliable 3D  printing filament to print durable and accurate prototypes.  

[1] Heat creep is 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 140˚C which prevents the filament from prematurely softening in the cold end and can still melt rapidly once entering the heating zone. The printed part will have the same heat resistance as regular PLA: ~60˚C 

Specifications:  

Disclaimer: The typical values presented in Polymakers data sheet are intended for  reference and comparison purposes only. Due to the nature of 3D printing they should not  be used for design specifications or quality control purposes.  

Storage: It is recommended to store PolyMax™ PLA in the PolyBox™ to prevent moisture  absorption which will lower the quality and the mechanical properties of the print. If the filament has absorbed moisture it can be dried at 55˚C for 6 hours in a convection oven.
