Introducing eSUN PLA-LW, the ultra-lightweight filament with a low density of just 0.54 g/cm³. Featuring micro-foaming technology, it's perfect for remote-controlled aircraft, drones, and cosplay projects that demand lightness and strength.

If you're looking for a 3D printing filament that reduces print weight without sacrificing strength, eSUN PLA-LW (Lightweight PLA) is the answer. This filament is specifically designed for applications requiring extreme lightness, such as RC airplanes, drones, and scale models where every gram counts.

What is PLA-LW?

eSUN PLA-LW utilizes physical microsphere foaming technology, which allows for a controllable expansion ratio of up to 220% by adjusting the printing temperature. This reduces the material's density to just 0.54 g/cm³, meaning one roll of filament can print the same volume as 2.2 rolls of standard PLA.

Key Features that Make PLA-LW Different

Controllable Lightweight: Adjust the hotend temperature between 190-270°C to control the foaming ratio and the strength of your prints as needed.

Smooth, Matte Finish: The expanded material almost completely conceals layer lines, providing a premium matte surface finish.

Easy to Paint: The slightly porous surface allows paint to adhere exceptionally well, ideal for DIY projects, decorating model airplanes, or cosplay props.

Easy to Print Like Standard PLA: No complex printer adjustments are needed, suitable for both beginners and professionals.

Ideal Applications for PLA-LW

With its ultra-lightweight properties, eSUN PLA-LW is suitable for various applications, including RC airplanes and drones, where reducing body weight is crucial to lessen wing loading and stall speed, resulting in longer flight times and increased agility. It is also suitable for prototyping and lightweight model toys.

Recommended Printing Parameters

Nozzle Temperature: 190-270°C | Bed Temperature: 45-60°C | Fan Speed: 100% | Print Speed: 40-100 mm/s

Recommendation: Disable retraction and avoid printing multiple parts simultaneously to reduce issues with nozzle clogging due to material expansion.

Conclusion

eSUN PLA-LW is the perfect choice for anyone looking for a lightweight, strong, and easy-to-print 3D filament. Whether you're an RC pilot, a drone enthusiast, or a cosplay model maker, you can fully benefit from eSUN's foaming technology.
