Workday PLA – Simply Silver

Description

Available in 1.75mm and 2.85mm diameter full 1kg spools, Simply Silver Workday PLA will help your 3D printed projects look beautiful and perform amazing. Anneal your design after 3D printing for even better heat resistance than ABS.

Our Workday PLA is the first 3D Filament ever made from plastic that was engineered and designed with 3D Printing in mind. All others before have been made from plastic designed for injection molding and do not have the advanced characteristics for 3D Printing. It actually outperforms standard PLA and even ABS!

Annealed Workday PLA (APLA) has a heat resistance up to 141C (286F). The video above only shows performance up to ~94C (200F).

Annealing (Heat Treating) Info

To get the maximum strength out of your 3D printed part, we recommend a post- annealing procedure that could be done in your oven at a range of 176-266F (80- 130C) to promote increased crystallization and further improve the heat deflection temperature.

For best results:

1. Preheat the oven or toaster oven.
2. Place print on room temperature baking sheet.
3. Place baking sheet into oven/toaster oven.
4. Wait 30-60 minutes for annealing to complete
   1. You may see the print take on a milky/matte/opaque color transformation.
5. Turn the oven off.
6. Wait for oven to cool before removing print.

Shrinkage and/or warping may occur. The degree of shrinkage/warping depends heavily on the part geometry.

Advanced PLA TDS

Quality: All 3D-Fuel 3D printer filament is manufactured in our own production facility located in Fargo, North Dakota or in Moville, Ireland (depending on customer location). We have complete control over the manufacturing process and are able to ensure consistent quality for every spool. Learn more about 3D-Fuel USA filament quality.

Diameter Tolerance: Variable diameter can cause big problems in your 3D printer. We use a multi-axis laser measurement system to control our filament diameter and ovality in real time during production. Every spool has the diameter and ovality measurements listed right on the box.

Packing Information: A full 1kg (2.2lbs) of Simply Silver Workday PLA plastic filament arrives on an easy-to-use plastic reel and is vacuum sealed with a desiccant packet to keep out any moisture.

Test Printing: The 3D-Fuel test lab features multiple brands of 3D printers including MakerBot, LulzBot, FlashForge, and more. We 3D print what we manufacture to ensure that our filament provides the absolute best quality possible.
