PLA Premium – Bahamas Yellow – Spectrum

PLA Premium – Bahamas Yellow – Spectrum

Aesthetic, biodegradable and reliable 3D printing

PLA Premium – Bahama Yellow is a polylactide based filament which belongs to aliphatic polymers. It shows complete biodegradability. Carefully selected color concentrates provide the articles manufactured by Spectrum PLA Premium with saturated colors in a wide spectrum. Furthermore, the choice of a suitable dye base for the filament extrusion granules ensures high-performance printing with extremely good adhesion of the prints on FDM/FFF 3D printers.

An undeniable advantage of PLA Premium – Bahamas Yellow Spectrum is the very low shrinkage during processing. Thus it is particularly useful for large size 3D printers without a closed chamber. PLA Premium – Bahama Yellow gives excellent surface and detail quality, producing reliable results.

Key Features:

• made from biodegradable raw materials
• good mechanical properties (high hardness and tensile strength)
• user-friendly
• high aesthetic surface quality
• good for creating high resolution parts
• high hardness of printed elements
• relatively low melting temperature
• lack of shrinkage after cooling
• wide range of colours available
• thermal distortion temperature – 55°C

Applications:

• household tools
• educational projects
• concept and demonstration prototypes of designed finished and semi-finished products
• industrial design
• interior design
• castings and moulds

The characteristics of the PLA Premium – Bahamas Yellow filament define its use as a learning material for those learning to use FDM/FFF additive manufacturing technologies. In addition, due to its extremely high aesthetic properties, the material is widely used in industrial design, in particular for concept and demonstration prototypes of designed finished and semi-finished products.

PLA Premium – Bahama Yellow is also widely used for the production of widgets and props for commercials and films, as well as all kinds of toys, figurines, containers, handles and stands for interior design purposes.

Packaging:

PLA Premium – Bahamas Yellow is spooled on a transparent reel. Each spool contains information on material type, diameter and recommended printing temperature. The filament is vacuum packed with a moisture absorber. All product is packaged in the original Spectrum Filaments packaging.

The most precise quality control system on the market

Filaments for 3D printers are produced by the free extrusion method, which is one of the most difficult extrusion processing techniques due to the particularly large influence of process parameters on product dimensions and material homogenization.

During production, every 1 mm of Spectrum filament is continuously measured along two axes with an accuracy of ±0.8 µm, allowing a high quality end product to be produced. As a testament to this, Spectrum Filaments has introduced, as one of the few manufacturers in the world, the ability to submit online, individually for each spool produced:

• the diameter stroke along the entire length of the reel,
• medium diameter
• ovality
• standard deviation.

Precise research ensures that Spectrum Filaments products meet the stringent requirements of the market.
