Section dedicated entirely to the review of materials for 3D printing. We will investigate the strengths and weaknesses of filaments for 3D printers through specific tests and technical tests. If you are a manufacturer / reseller of 3D printing material and would like to offer us your products please contact us and we will be happy to carry out our tests.
Since some time now I came across this Amolen filament, which is a filament changes color according to temperature. I did not hesitate a moment and I immediately purchased it to try it. It is not yet present in fact in the blog a material with this peculiarity. It will really be possible then to […]
The filament I want to talk about today in this review is a PLA of the brand GIANTARM in SILK copper color. Filament You can find it on amazon.com with the possibility of Prime shipping with delivery in 24h. The package is a standard cardboard box. The coil is also protected by a thermo-shrinking plastic […]
Today I was finally able to test the PLA filament of this famous Chinese printer manufacturer, the PLA 3D Elec Tech. Hanging around a bit in the world of 3D printing, as it happens with almost all brands, I heard conflicting opinions about this material. Many times, however, both bad results and excellent results are […]
Today we review the PLA Eryone filament. You can find it, since some time, on Amazon (you find it here) at a really low price. We are talking around twenty $/euros for a kg. Let’s see how it behaves by printing a variable temperature tower and some objects. PLA Eryone Filament : shipping, packaging and […]
Amazon Basic PETG review As you probably already know Amazon is selling filaments with its own brand: Amazon Basic. Today we talk about the Amazon Basic PETG, material generally with excellent characteristics but always a bit hard to work. The characteristics of the PETG vary not only from brand to brand but also from different […]
Introduction to ASA-X Minadax filament Welcome back! The topic of today is the ASA-X Minadax filament review. Definitely not a common one. Let’s start! In the first place, this filament chemically is different from the ABS for the lack of butadiene in it. Apart from that are almost the same. To be honest its name […]
Tianse is an imported US brand, the PLA Tianse is marketed on Amazon and is a best seller. It is the best-selling strand of the entire online store. We bought and tried this filament, here are the results. HERE you can see the parameters and how the tests are carried out Let’s look at the […]
Sunlu is a Chinese brand that produces quality filament, Sunlu PLA is marketed on Amazon. We have purchased and tested this filament, and here are the results. Let’s analyze the crucial points: Extruder: 195 ° / 205 ° Plate: Off Ventilation: It was used even if it does not seem essential. Sunlu PLA review: First […]
StoneFil is a PLA-based filament by Formfutura, based on the modified EasyFil PLA compound which is loaded with 50% powdered stone. This high loading (loading means inserting another material into one, of which the plastic will have to imitate the look) has led to a filament with remarkable aesthetic characteristics. StoneFil is an easy to […]
Today I will tell you about the ABS ReForm filament. It is a sustainable initiative by Formfutura to efficiently manage residual extrusion materials and reuse them to create a high-end ABS filament. ReForm’s ideology is to make 3D printing more sustainable, without compromising material properties, and yet keep it affordable. ReForm rTitan is based on […]
A valid alternative to ABS is the ASA Apollox filament (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) created in the 70’s by BASF but recently also used in the field of 3d FDM printing. The main feature of this filament is its resistance to atmospheric conditions such as UV and water. The secondary characteristic, but not for importance, is […]
Today we add another piece to our PLA tests and we’ll try one of the most popular PLAs in the 3D printing material landscape, the PLA FiloAlfa. Delivery We were sent a small reel (very comfortable format of 250g) for testing to analyze the best of this material. Undoubtedly one of the best packaging […]
We continue to analyze PETG filaments, and today we try a particular one, the transparent PETG FiloAlfa. It can have the same characteristics of strength and resistance as ABS, but it is much easier to print. ABS has its own problems, especially warping and delamination, which is why it needs a closed printing chamber. PETG […]
Here we are with another PETG review: today we will examine a product of excellence, the G-PET by TreeD. Delivery We have purchased the test package, of many filaments on the Nextotum site, in the Sample Pack section. Sincerely I recommend you to visit this section, with a few euros you will have 34 types […]
Here we are with another review on ABS filaments. Today we will examine and examine a product of excellence, Treed’s Performance ABS. I’m not a big fan of the domestic use of this material. First of all because to be able to extrude this material in the best possible way you need closed printers, not […]
