3D printing with PLA delivers a sturdy product, with sharp details and corners. There’s no risk of cracking or warping, which is something that will come in handy if you’re printing a larger object. PLA melts at a lower temperature compared to ABS, which is how it remains intact, despite the size of the printing object. When it comes to maintaining size and structure, there’s no competition for PLA, because it is dimensionally stable, easy to source and offers a high-quality surface finish. An added bonus is that PLA does not require a heated bed to operate.
