The BASF Ultrafuse PLA PRO1 is a highly versatile tough polylactic acid based filament for FFF printing. This engineering thermoplastic was specially developed to reduce printing time by 30–80% while retaining excellent surface quality and even better mechanical properties than ABS material. The Ultrafuse PLA PRO1 is a highly reliable polymer that ensures print consistency even between colors and batches, allowing you to get predictable results with every print.
While printing with the PLA PRO1 you can adjust print settings to achieve either ultra-fast speed or flawless surface finish depending on your particular requirements. The manufacturer recommends the following print settings for three different scenarios:
Fast print settings
