Filament Details

Performance ratings are intended as a general comparison guide. Refer to the Technical Data Sheet (TDS) for detailed specifications and certified values.
PLA (Polylactic Acid) – the most used 3D printing material available in a wide range of RAL and Forward AM Ultrafuse colors and translucencies. The glossy feel often attracts those who print display models or small items for household use. Many appreciate the plant-based origin of this material and prefer the semi-sweet smell over ABS. When properly cooled, PLA has a higher maximum printing speed, lower layer heights, and sharper printed corners. Combining this with low warping of the print makes it a popular plastic for home printers, hobbyists and schools. It has a plant-based origin with a semi-sweet smell during printing.
Applications
  • Fast design prototypes
  • Automotive parts

Notes

Forward AM Ultrafuse is high-quality performance filament from the Netherlands. Upon our extensive testing, we can recommend it as material that is 100% compatible with the Ultimaker line of printers. Enjoying the same spools and diameter as OEM filament there is no difference in configuration or operation as compared to official OEM filament. The colours are brilliant and the bed adhesion on bare glass is superb.  There is zero decrease in performance between Ultrafuse's high-quality filament and OEM in any aspect.
