eSUN PLA-Clear Rainbow Translucent Blue White 1.75mm 1kg

For eSUN PLA-Clear Rainbow, we recommend an extrusion temperature between 190-220°C, starting with 200°C for optimal results in layer adhesion and surface quality. A heated bed temperature of 50-60°C is also advisable to ensure excellent bed adhesion and prevent warping, especially for larger prints.

While PLA is generally less hygroscopic than other materials, drying can significantly enhance print quality, particularly if the filament has been exposed to humidity for extended periods. For best performance, dry eSUN PLA at 50-55°C for 4-6 hours to prevent issues like stringing, bubbling, and poor layer adhesion.

Achieving reliable bed adhesion starts with a clean and properly leveled print surface. Applying a thin layer of adhesive, such as a glue stick or PVA glue, or using painter's tape, can greatly improve first-layer success. Maintaining a heated bed temperature of 50-60°C also promotes optimal bonding without causing excessive elephant's foot.

Yes, eSUN PLA-Clear Rainbow is well-suited for functional prototypes due to its enhanced toughness and impact resistance compared to standard PLA. It provides sufficient mechanical strength for many non-high-stress applications and delivers smooth, dimensionally accurate parts, making it a reliable choice for initial design iterations and form-fit testing.
