Frequently Asked Questions

PLA Pro is tougher, bonds layers more strongly and generally handles heat better than regular PLA. It is a good choice for functional parts while remaining easy to print.

Start with a nozzle temperature of 190–220°C and a bed temperature of 55–60°C. Fine-tune these settings for your printer, filament colour and room conditions.

PLA works well for prototypes, models, toys, decorative pieces and everyday prints. Its low printing difficulty also makes it suitable for beginners and education.

Choose PLA for easy printing and a clean surface finish. Choose PETG when you need more strength, flexibility, heat resistance or better performance outdoors.

Common causes include moisture, dust, residue and an unsuitable nozzle temperature. Dry and clean the filament, confirm the correct temperature, and clean the nozzle regularly.

Stringing usually comes from insufficient retraction, excess nozzle heat or damp filament. Adjust retraction, lower the temperature slightly and make sure the spool is dry.

Clean and level the build plate. Set the first layer so it is gently compressed against the bed, use a suitable adhesive surface when needed, and slow the first layer to roughly 20–30 mm/s.

Our standard filament is compatible with major FDM printers, including Bambu Lab, Prusa, Elegoo, Creality, Voron, Raise3D, Anycubic, FlashForge and AnkerMake. Check that your printer supports the filament diameter and material you select.

Keep spools sealed and away from sunlight, heat and humid air. Airtight boxes or vacuum bags with fresh silica gel work well; a dry cabinet is even better for long-term storage.

Use a filament dryer at the material’s recommended setting. A carefully temperature-controlled oven may also be used at 40–50°C for several hours. After drying, seal the spool with desiccant immediately.
