Hamlet Reel 1 75mm PLA blue

Hamlet Universalfilament is an easy-to-print material suitable for all types of FDM 3D printers. Hamlet PLA (Polylactic Acid) is derived from plant starch, making it a renewable resource. The material is biodegradable in water, requiring a period of 12 months to 5 years for decomposition, compared to plastic materials that take 500 to over 1000 years to break down. Melting during printing occurs at low temperatures, without producing fumes that could potentially be harmful to health. Compared to ABS, PLA is less prone to expansion and shrinkage due to temperature fluctuations, allowing for high-quality printing even with large objects. The lower extrusion temperature also leads to energy savings when creating 3D models. For these reasons, PLA is the most popular printing material in the field of FDM 3D additive manufacturing.
