1. Introduction to SUNLU PLA Filament
SUNLU PLA (Polylactic Acid) filament is a widely used and reliable material for FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling) 3D printers. It is known for its ease of use, versatility, and consistent performance, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced users in 3D printing.
This filament is engineered to minimize common printing issues such as clogs, bubbles, and tangles, ensuring a smoother and more efficient printing experience. Its excellent layer adhesion contributes to high-quality and durable printed objects.

2. Орнотуу жана жүктөө
Proper setup and loading of the filament are crucial for successful 3D printing. SUNLU PLA filament comes on a neatly wound spool designed for ease of use and to prevent tangles.
2.1 Таңгактан чыгаруу жана текшерүү
- Carefully remove the filament spool from its vacuum-sealed packaging.
- Inspect the filament for any visible damage or kinks before loading.
- Ensure the filament is neatly wound on the spool. SUNLU's self-developed neat winding device aims for a 100% neat rate to reduce tangles and jams.
2.2 Жипчени жүктөө
The SUNLU filament spool is designed to be compatible with most FDM 3D printers. The spool dimensions are approximately: Diameter: 8.00 inches, Width: 2.50 inches, Hub Hole Diameter: 2.20 inches.
Figure 2.1: Instructions for using the SUNLU reusable filament spool.
- Place the filament spool onto your 3D printer's spool holder.
- For reusable spools, ensure the filament is securely locked into place by aligning the marks and turning to the 'lock' position.
- Feed the filament into the printer's extruder mechanism according to your printer's specific instructions.
- Ensure the filament path is clear and free of obstructions.
Маанилүү: To prevent tangling, always insert the filament end into the side holes of the spool after each use or when storing.

3. Operating (Recommended Print Settings)
Achieving optimal print quality with SUNLU PLA filament requires adherence to recommended printing parameters. These settings are general guidelines and may need slight adjustments based on your specific 3D printer model, nozzle type, and environmental conditions.
| Орнотуу | Сунушталган диапазон |
|---|---|
| Сопло температурасы | 200-230°C |
| Төшөктүн температурасы | 50-65°C |
| Басып чыгаруу ылдамдыгы | 50-100мм/с |
3.1 General Printing Tips
- Биринчи катмардын адгезиясы: Ensure your print bed is clean and properly leveled. Using an adhesive (like glue stick or hairspray) can improve first layer adhesion, especially on glass beds.
- Муздатуу: PLA generally benefits from good cooling. Ensure your part cooling fan is active after the first few layers.
- Өлчөмдүк тактык: SUNLU PLA filament boasts a dimensional accuracy of +/- 0.02mm, ensuring consistent extrusion and precise prints.
- Шайкештик: Due to its small diameter error, SUNLU filament is suitable for almost all 1.75mm FDM 3D printers.

4. Техникалык тейлөө жана сактоо
Proper maintenance and storage of your PLA filament are essential to preserve its quality and ensure consistent printing results over time. PLA is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air, which can negatively impact print quality.
4.1 Сактоо боюнча көрсөтмөлөр
- Кургак кармоо: Жипчелерди салкын, кургак жерде, түз күн нурунан жана нымдуулуктан алыс сактаңыз.
- Sealed Container: After opening, store the filament in its original vacuum-sealed bag with the desiccant packet, or in an airtight container.
- Чаташтырбоо: Always secure the end of the filament in the spool's designated holes to prevent tangles during storage and handling.
4.2 Filament Drying
If your filament has absorbed moisture, you may notice issues like popping sounds during printing, stringing, or poor layer adhesion. Drying the filament can resolve these issues.
- Use a dedicated filament dryer (e.g., SUNLU FilaDryer) or a conventional oven at a low temperature (e.g., 45-50°C for several hours).
- Ensure the filament is completely dry before resuming printing.

5. Жалпы көйгөйлөрдү чечүү
While SUNLU PLA filament is designed for reliability, occasional issues may arise. Here are common problems and their potential solutions:
5.1 Clogging or Jamming
- Себеби: Incorrect temperature, heat creep, dust on filament, or tangled filament.
- Чечим: Verify nozzle temperature is within the recommended 200-230°C range. Ensure proper cooling of the hotend. Clean the nozzle. Check for filament tangles on the spool and ensure it's properly secured.
5.2 Poor Layer Adhesion
- Себеби: Too low nozzle temperature, insufficient bed temperature, or wet filament.
- Чечим: Increase nozzle temperature slightly (within range). Ensure bed temperature is 50-65°C. Dry the filament if moisture is suspected.
5.3 Жип менен сайып же суу чыгарып жиберүү
- Себеби: Too high nozzle temperature, incorrect retraction settings, or wet filament.
- Чечим: Decrease nozzle temperature in 5°C increments. Adjust retraction distance and speed in your slicer software. Dry the filament.
5.4 Warping or Lifting from Bed
- Себеби: Insufficient bed adhesion, uneven bed temperature, or drafts.
- Чечим: Ensure print bed is clean and leveled. Increase bed temperature (within range). Use a brim or raft. Avoid printing in drafty areas.
