Description
Engineered specifically for the demands of model aircraft construction, eSUN ePLA-LW (Lightweight PLA) utilizes cutting-edge active foam technology to achieve unparalleled weight reduction. By adjusting your printing temperature, you can precisely control the foaming rate, resulting in a volume expansion ratio of 220% and a remarkably low density of just 0.54 g/cm³.
This filament is the ultimate choice for RC enthusiasts looking to reduce wing load and decrease stall speeds, significantly enhancing flight performance. Beyond its aeronautical advantages, the foaming process effectively masks layer lines, leaving your models with a delicate, fine, and professional matte finish that is incredibly easy to process and paint.
Key Features
- Aerospace Optimized: Specifically developed for high-performance model aircraft where every gram counts.
- Active Foaming Technology: Achieve extreme lightweight parts with a density as low as 0.54 g/cm³.
- Near-Invisible Layers: The foaming process fills gaps between layers, creating a smooth, matte, and uniform surface.
- Customizable Strength: Control the structural integrity and weight of your parts simply by adjusting your printing temperature.
- Stable Adhesion: Engineered for reliable interlayer bonding, ensuring your lightweight parts remain durable during flight.
Suggested Print Settings
- Operating Temperature: 190°C – 270°C (Adjust for desired foaming effect)
- Heating Plate Temperature: 45°C – 60°C
