Here is a rundown of all the special strands tried by us!
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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. Â 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 […]
Today we add an important possibility among those considered so far in terms of special materials for 3D printing, the heritage brick. We will analyze the terracotta effect filament of TreeD. We will carry out a mini-review, i.e. this morning’s single object review, to test the actual similarity with the original material. Delivery We have […]
With a bit of skepticism, I started to try this Volcano PLA filament by Formfutura. Its main characteristic is its high mechanical and heat resistance. It must be said that once made our object this should be placed in the normal home oven at 110 ° for twenty minutes and cooled naturally. For today’s test […]
FromFutura sent us special filament samples: PETG FormFutura. Today we start with this very special PETG. HD GLASS. HDglass is a high performance, high strength, high gloss and ultra transparent PETG filament. HD means “Heavy Duty”, (extremely robust). Very easy to print with remarkable gloss, transparency and excellent properties of resistance and resistance to temperature. […]
