PLA filaments are so popular in the Maker world that many never print with any other type. The range of PLA colours and interesting easy-to-print adaptations scratch almost every making itch for everyday printing. But few brands have really unlocked the full potential of this common plastic material. Especially when printing at high speeds, normal PLA might struggle to keep up. SunLu High Speed PLA Filament is specialised for ultra-flow and smoothness with speedy 3D printers.
PLA is always a great choice for aesthetic and decorative prints, and SunLu High Speed PLA Filament lets you turn out prints at whopping speeds. Print between 100 to 250mm/s with amazing smoothness on every layer. SunLu High Speed PLA Filament is optimised for printing performance with improved fluidity and fast cooling. This filament is the perfect choice for enjoying rapid prototyping and beautiful models quickly.
Compared to most 3D Filament manufacturers that we hobbyists like to support, SunLu has placed a core focus on firstly providing awesome quality 3D Filaments that can actually meet the common standards of modern 3D Makers, while secondarily ensuring the lowest price possible so as to make their materials affordable and accessible for everyone. These are some key ingredients that, in our experience, do wonders toward making a material a comfortable “Everyday Filament”, and when coupled with a fantastically wide range of colours to choose from, can easily make this filament a firm favourite amongst 3D Makers of all kinds. This is why, despite being “low cost”, we’re delighted with the print quality that we get from SunLu, and we think it should definitely have a good place in our growing catalogue as a tried, tested and reliable “Everyday Filaments” for 3D Makers who love to spend hours with their 3D Printers creating, Making and tinkering away.
Of course, as with any other filament brand, we encourage you to test out SunLu PLA Filament for yourself, and if you enjoy the colours, print quality and easy printing style of it, then take the next leap and test out other materials from the SunLu Filament Range. So far we’ve enjoyed each and every variant that we have in stock, and we’re quite certain that you’re going to fall in love with SunLu just like we did when first sinking our teeth into their range of materials and colours.

Although 3D Printing at first glance can seem extremely complicated, with a crazy amount of different polymers and plastics available, PLA is polymerised in such a way that even a beginner can enjoy awesome results without ever needing any training or formal education on the topic. This is why it is arguably the most popular filament in the world, and as long as you aren’t requiring the printed models or parts to be very strong, it can handle a wide range of applications from decorative art to functional door handles and similar types of objects.
However, even though it is very easy to print with compared to other polymers, there are still some handy tips to help you get to a good level of quality from your PLA Prints, and this is why we’ve taken the time to provide what we feel are the Top Three Tips for 3D Printing with PLA:
Although we like to believe that we are masters of 3D Printing, after spending a good many years enveloped in the industry, we have to admit that even we learn something new from time to time, and as such we always recommend getting out there and doing your own research to develop your own opinion and grow your knowledge from multiple sources!
As such, in addition to the above PLA Printing Tips, we’ve also gathered an awesome collection of what we feel are great resources to start with when getting into 3D Printing, so be sure to check these out if you’re looking for more insights and information on PLA Printing, or if you’re just curious and eager to see more opinions on one of the many facets of this still-fresh industry:
