PolySonic™ PLA is a revolutionary high-speed 3D printing filament and game-changer for rapid additive manufacturing. With its lightning-fast extrusion rate, cutting-edge precision, and exceptional layer adhesion you can ramp up the speed of your 3D printer and witness new levels of productivity. Accelerate your workflow without compromising on strength or quality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Flow Extrusion -\u003c\/strong\u003e PolySonic™ PLA is a high speed PLA developed to extrude consistently at high flow rates such as 24mm³\/s on popular extrusion systems (equivalent to 300mm\/s at 0.2mm layer height with a 0.4mm nozzle.). PolySonic™ PLA exhibits a wider extrusion window when compared to regular PLA filaments, producing a 30% increase in flow rate at the same printing temperatures when compared to regular PLA filaments. This boost in extrusion efficiency allows users to build profiles with higher printing speeds before noticing the effects of under-extrusion on the printed part.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrint Strong \u0026amp; Fast -\u003c\/strong\u003e PolySonic™ PLA offers both high rigidity, tensile strength and preserves its inherent mechanical performance during high speed printing; enabling users to increase the productivity of their machines without compromising on part strength or print quality. PolySonic™ PLA shows only a 6% drop in mechanical properties when printing at high speed compared to the classic speed. In contrast, Regular PLA (PolyLite™ PLA) witnesses a 24% drop when the speed is increased. The consistent mechanical strength of PolySonic™ PLA offers advantages for a wide range of application including functional prototyping, artistic creations, and production of end-use products.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh Speed Accuracy -\u003c\/strong\u003e PolySonic™ PLA can switch from fluid to solid with minimal shrinkage, producing crisp corners, fine details and smooth surfaces with no shark skin effect.  PolySonic™ PLA is not only capable of melting at high speeds but also cools quickly, allowing PolySonic™ PLA to print rapidly. As the new generation of high-speed printers are equipped with auxiliary cooling, PolySonic™ is perfectly adapted to lightning printing speeds with rapid cooling characteristics.  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConsistent Melt \u0026amp; Finish -\u003c\/strong\u003e  Colourful and functional, PolySonic™ PLA delivers a consistent surface finish for layers printed at high or low speeds thanks to its excellent melt properties. While regular PLA melts correctly and displays a glossy finish at lower extrusion speeds, it experiences a 'cold-core' effect at high speeds and displays a matte finish along with reduced mechanical properties. Since extrusion rate is never constant and varies as a 3D printer accelerates and decelerates, high-speed prints using regular PLA exhibit an inconsistent surface finish, alternating between glossy and matte. PolySonic™ PLA is an excellent choice for users who require both high speed and consistent surface finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003csup id=\"cite_ref-1\"\u003e[1]\u003c\/sup\u003e \u003cem\u003eVolumetric flow rate of \u003c\/em\u003e24mm³\/s is equivalent to 300mm\/s at 0.2mm layer height with a 0.4mm nozzle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003csup id=\"cite_ref-1\"\u003e[2]\u003c\/sup\u003e Maximum flow rate can depend on the extrusion temperature.
