A few years ago, FDM 3D printing was the tool you pulled out to make a quick test part before the real manufacturing started. Now that story has flipped. For drone and UAV manufacturing, FDM has become one of the most practical and cost-effective paths to actual production — not just a stepping stone toward […]
Understanding PLA Filament: The Best Choice for 3D Printing
Introduction to PLA Filament in 3D Printing Polylactic Acid, or PLA, is a widely used filament in the world of 3D printing. Known for its ease of use, affordability, and eco-friendly properties, PLA is a thermoplastic derived from renewable resources like corn starch and sugar cane. This makes it biodegradable, reducing the environmental impact commonly […]

It combines the robustness of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) with the added benefits of improved glycol modifications, providing enhanced clarity and ease of processing. The […]
Is there a difference between natural and black?
We are often asked whether there is a difference between natural and black colors in 3d printing and the use of printed parts. When it comes to filaments, there is a difference. Yes, provided that the inks are selected for the chosen polymer, and the ink manufacturer fights for quality and does not save on […]
