What is the difference between PolyLite PLA, PolyMax PLA, and PolyLite PLA Pro? Short answer:PolyLite PLA is a very rigid material with very low impact strength.PolyMax PLA is an extremely flexible material with high impact strength and durability.PolyLite PLA Pro offers the best of both worlds, combining excellent rigidity with high impact strength. Long answer in our live experiment here. Printing and drying settings? Print temperature: 190°C - 220°CBed temperature: 30°C - 60°CPrint speed: 30mm/s - 70mm/sFan: ON Retraction distance: 1 mmRetraction speed: 30 mm/sIndirect drive:Retraction distance: 3 mmRetraction speed: 60 mm/s Drying settings: 55°C for 6 hours(Only if the material has absorbed moisture)
Material TypeThe base polymer type determines printability, strength, flexibility, and heat resistance
PLA
Print TemperatureRecommended nozzle temperature range. Stay within range for best layer adhesion and surface quality
190°C - 190°C
Bed TemperatureHeated bed temperature to prevent warping. Some materials like PLA can print without a heated bed
25°C - 60°C
Diameter1.75mm is standard, 2.85mm for some printers
1.75 mm
Spool WeightNet weight of filament on the spool. Standard spools are 1kg (1000g)
1g
DensityMaterial density affects part weight. Higher density = heavier prints for the same volume
1.24 g/cm³
