Glossary of 3D Printing Terms
[1] |
Alloy Filaments Alloy filaments are 3D printing materials infused with metallic powders to replicate the appearance or properties of metal. Common types include bronze, copper, and stainless steel-infused PLA. These filaments are popular for decorative applications, creating objects with a metallic finish, or simulating metal prototypes. Alloy filaments are typically heavier than standard PLA and may require adjustments to printer settings for optimal results. Post-processing, such as sanding or polishing, enhances the metallic effect. While alloy filaments provide an affordable alternative to full metal printing, they are not as strong or durable as parts printed with pure metal processes like DMLS or EBM. |
