PolyLite LW-PLA
PolyLite™ LW-PLA is a low-density PLA that uses Polymaker’s Stabilized Foaming™ technology.
This technology allows the PLA to re-foam after extrusion introducing a lattice foam structure
that decreases the density by 30%. It prints using regular PLA settings and also produces a naturally matte surface finish
which can hide the layer lines. LW-PLA is the perfect candidate where weight is critical and is popular among aerodynamicists.
Tip: Since PolyLite LW-PLA is already pre-foamed, the material does not foam when extruded from the nozzle.
Therefore, you almost don't need to change your usual PLA settings (except for a slight increase in retraction).
Best printing results are achieved at low temperatures (approx. 190 °C)
