2 What size is the print bed? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
It is 100x100mm.

3 Is this food grade? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
None of our filaments have FDA approval and certainly they are not food safe. I think no filaments have such FDA approval on market. Not only filament itself, but also FDM printing technology is also an issue. FDM printing leaves a lot of micron holes on prints and they are good bacterial ground. So even if you find an FDA approved material, the FDM printing itself won't make anything food safe.

4 It seems there's some smell when printing. Is it harmful to the health? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
The PLA is made of corn starch, which is biodegradible and unharmful to the health.

5 This filament is 1.75? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
Yes, it is 1.75mm in diameter. And we provide 2.85mm in diameter as needs as well.

6 How long is the material? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
It is around 340 - 360 meters.

7 Does this filament include a resealable bag? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
No it comes in vacuum sealed bag that cannot be resealed.

8 Would this PLA+ work on other brands' 3d printer? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
As long as the machine takes 1.75mm filament and can heat the nozzle to 190-220c, then yes.

9 What is the dimension of the spool? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
55mm in inner diameter and 200 mm in outer diameter by 67 mm wide

10 What is the net weight of the filament? Does the 1 kilo include the spool? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
The net weight of the filament is 1kg, which doen't include the spool. The total weight is around 1.4 kg including the spool.

11 Does the PLA+ contain any nylon or ABS? or is it pure PLA? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
It doesn't contain any nylon or ABS, it's just basic PLA but a little bit tougher than pure PLA to make it not so brittle as pure PLA.

12 How many materials do I need to print this model? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
It depends on the model size you want to print. The weight is 1kg for one spool and around 340 - 360 meters, meaning we need around 0.34 - 0.36 meters to print the model of 1g weight.

13 What do I change if my extruder temp keeps fluctuating? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
We can try to modify the PID value or there is the problem with the temperature sensor.

14 What is best accuracy, and other than environmental variables, is accuracy based primarily on filament type? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
Speed, filament, stable footing, bed leveling, temperatures, belt tension....there is too many variables that affect accuracy.

15 Is it able to accept filament from other companies? 2011-12-12 12:15:59
Yes, you can buy from other companies. But remember to buy the filament in good quality to avoid any clogging problem and you do have to change the settings on the software you download to get better perfect prints.
