![]() SainSmart LW-PLA (Lightweight PLA) is a 3d printing material specially developed for aeromodelling drones and cosplay. Compared with regular PLA Filament, printing with the LW-PLA Filament delivers a lighter wing load and a lower stall speed to your aircraft models. With a better balance between strength and weight, it also brings better performance to your models. FeaturesLightweightWith active foaming technology, this LW-PLA filament delivers low-density and light weight parts. Active FoamingThe maximum foaming rate of this LW-PLA filament is 220%, which means when printing models of the same volume, 1 roll of LW-PLA can be used as 2.2 rolls of ordinary PLA. Smooth FinishThe foaming feature of it also makes it possible for almost invisible layer lines and a smooth matte finish. ![]() LW-PLA has a more stable interlayer bonding, and the expanding rate, density and strength of which can be controlled by adjusting the printing temperature. ![]() SainSmart LW PLA v.s. Other LW PLA![]() This material starts to foam and expand when printing above 210 ℃, the prints volume can increase by nearly 1.2 times, the printing extrusion rate can be reduced to max of 45% to print lightweight parts. ![]() Printing Tips:
