Because PLA has a number of important advantages over other popular FDM filaments, it is employed in 3D printing. These characteristics determine its choice for a sizeable share of all tiny FDM prints. The intra-layer bonding and broad temperature endurance of PLA are among these advantageous characteristics.

FDM printing frequently uses the filament material PLA. It has benefits in terms of both aesthetic quality and use. With PLA, printing is simple and forgiving of machine settings.

Because PLA has a number of important advantages over other popular FDM filaments, it is employed in 3D printing. These characteristics determine its choice for a sizeable share of all tiny FDM prints. The intra-layer bonding and broad temperature endurance of PLA are among these advantageous characteristics. The capacity of recently extruded plastic to link well with recently cooled plastic is known as intra-layer bonding. Smoother surfaces are produced as a result of effective intra-layer bonding, which considerably improves the blending of strands and layers. The material is particularly forgiving to print because this bonding is difficult to break by changing machine settings.
