Top Five 3D Printer Filament Types
2
Introduction

• We live in a technological advanced world where
  the technology is advancing and changing every
  day.
• We all want to use gadgets and machines that can
  help us save time, reduce cost, and provide
  faster results.
• The world of 3D printing is taking over every
  industry by a storm and is looking to accommodate
  and reduce the work in a lot of fields.
• It is making the work of the designers less
  hectic by allowing them to see their designs
  first hand right after they have finished
  digitally designing it.
• It also helps many industries in testing their
  prototype products before they are actually
  launched in the market.

Introduction

• A 3D printer filament helps you in transforming
  your design to a solid form which has height,
  width, and depth.
• You can immediately create solid objects from
  your designs using the filament of the 3D
  printer.
• There are many companies in Australia which has
  the technology to carry out 3D prints at a
  reasonable cost for their clients and provide
  them with the best quality of prints.
• There are various types of 3d printer filaments
  which are used and following are the top five
  picks

4
PETG

• It is made from a blend of Glycerol and PET and
  is an all-rounder filament. It has good
  durability, strength, and flexibility and hence
  is adapted by a list of industries.
• It can also be used by the food industry as it
  has been approved by the US FDA authorities.
• It is not soluble in nature and hence lasts
  longer when compared to other filaments.
• You need to tune the nozzle and bed temperature
  before printing with this type of filament. Minor
  shrinking can occur during cooling.

5
Nylon

• This is the most popular filament in 3D printing
  and is synthetic polymer which is used in several
  industries.
• It can be colored using fabric dyes and is easy
  to use if the spools are kept dried.
• There are various types of nylon filaments
  available as well and you can choose the one that
  best suits your printing needs.
• It gives a high glossy finish to the products and
  can be recycled as well. Minor shrinking can
  occur during cooling.

6
PETT

• It is also known as T-Glase by Taulman and is
  quite rigid in nature.
• It is transparent and has high strength and
  biocompatibility.
• It can be used for making food containers as it
  is US FDA approved.
• It is not soluble in nature and minor shrinking
  can occur while cooling it.

7
PC Polycarbonate

• It is the strongest filament available till date.
  
• It is mostly transparent in nature and can resist
  high temperatures.
• It is more expensive as compared to other
  filaments as it has unique characteristics,
  although, it is being used more and more in the
  recent times making it available to people
  easily.
• It has very high durability and is flexible. It
  is not advisable to be used with food items the
  printing could be a little difficult with this
  filament.

8
PET

• It is a great alternative to PLA or ABS filament.
  
• It has immense strength and flexibility and is
  more popular in nature.
• It is easy to use and can be recycled and does
  not cost as much as other filaments.
• It also has high durability as it is not soluble.
  Minor shrinkage can also occur in this type of
  filament while cooling.
