Bambu PLA-CF
Bambu PLA-CF is carbon fiber reinforced PLA with improved stiffness and strength. PLA-CF is easy to print and beginner-friendly like regular PLA. It is AMS compatible with low clogging risk at high-speed printing. The prints are in matte finish with almost invisible layer lines, which make it suitable for printing general engineering parts or models requiring a better appearance, like bike frames, brackets and toys.
Carbon fiber texture & Minimized layer lines
The addition of carbon fiber gives prints a unique matte finish and effectively hides layer lines, providing a smooth, premium look.
Display of Prints
Bambu PLA-CF could be paired with any PLA series filament to make your prints more colorful and achieve various texture requirements.
Improved mechanical properties
Bambu PLA-CF exceeds the mechanical properties of PLA Matte in XY Bending Strength, Z Bending Strength, XY Bending Modulus, Z Bending Modulus, XY Impact Strength, and Z Impact Strength by between 20% and 115%, making it more suitable for printing models with higher strength requirements.
Mechanical Properties Comparison
PLA Matte | PLA-CF | Improved % | |
Tensile Strength – XY/MPa | 32 | 38 | 19% |
Tensile Strength – Z/MPa | 25 | 26 | 4% |
Bending Strength – XY/MPa | 53 | 96 | 81% |
Bending Strength – Z/MPa | 32 | 49 | 53% |
Bending Modulus – XY/MPa | 2360 | 3700 | 57% |
Bending Modulus – Z/MPa | 2040 | 2260 | 10% |
Impact Strength – XY/(kJ/m²) | 19.2 | 23.2 | 20% |
Impact Strength – Z/(kJ/m²) | 6.6 | 7.8 | 18% |
*Drying PLA is recommended for humid environments at 55 °C for 8 hours before printing.
Stablized printing dimension
Bambu PLA-CF features low shrinkage and warping resistance to achieve a perfect matching accuracy between prints parts.
Minimal effort in support removal
Bambu PLA-CF is designed to support itself. It can be removed more easily compared to regular PLA, and still maintains a smooth support surface.
Not prone to clogging in high-speed printing
Bambu PLA-CF is just as easy to print as regular PLA. It can be printed smoothly and consistently at high speed without clogging.
