Volcano PLA offers the same mechanical and thermal properties - after annealing - as most ABS filaments, but with the biodegradability and ease of printing of PLA. Volcano PLA combines a high heat resistance with high printing speeds and high impact resistance into a PLA-based filament engineered for industrial applications.\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnique features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eHigh heat resistance of ≥ 95° C after annealing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLess than 0.3% shrinkage after annealing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRoughly 8 times less shrinkage compared to competitor materials available on the market\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEngineered to have excellent dimensional accuracy before and after annealing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEngineered for high printing speeds of \u0026gt; 120mm\/s\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHighly crystalline immediately after extruding resulting in increased stiffness and temperature resistance\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSuperb mechanical properties comparable to ABS\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eExcellent interlayer adhesion\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBiodegradable\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMatte surface finish \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeneral printing guidelines \u003cspan\u003e*\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ctable class='\\\"table' table-bordered\u003e \u003ctbody\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNozzle size: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e≥ 0.15mm\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLayer height: \u003c\/strong\u003e≥ 0.06mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlow rate: \u003c\/strong\u003e± 95 - 110%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrint temp: \u003c\/strong\u003e± 230 - 265° C \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e*\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrint speed: \u003c\/strong\u003eHigh\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRetraction: \u003c\/strong\u003eYes ± 5mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeat bed: \u003c\/strong\u003e± 0 - 60° C\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFan speed: \u003c\/strong\u003e50-100%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExperience level: \u003c\/strong\u003eBeginner\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/tbody\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAbove displayed settings are meant as guidance to find your optimal print settings.

When the plastic part is reheated (annealed) like this, the material relaxes and internal stresses and\/or strains are relieved resulting in improved dimensional stability, reduction\/removal of dimensional distortion and defects, and improved physical and thermal properties of the printed (and annealed) plastic object.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStep 1\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e Preheat a convection oven at 110° C (half the melting temperature of Volcano PLA).

This results in a negligible shrinkage percentage of \u0026lt; 0.3% and by that Volcano PLA is unsurpassed when it comes to reduction of shrinkage after annealing.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 2\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhen the oven is preheated to a stable temperature of 110° C then quickly put your Volcano PLA printed object in the oven.
