If the jig, tool, drone part or structural prototype has to come off the printer stiffer than everyday PLA, order CF PLA, not standard PLA. CF PLA is the carbon-fiber card. Standard PLA is the easy-print card. We sell FOB Foshan. The factory is in Foshan, Guangdong, next to Guangzhou.
Numbers from the catalog. PLA: heat deflection 57°C, impact 26 kJ/m², flexural 75 MPa, print 190–220°C, bed 50–60°C, about 10 colors, 1.75 mm and 2.85 mm, ±0.03 mm. CF PLA: heat deflection 58°C, impact 22 kJ/m², flexural 88 MPa, print 200–230°C, bed 50–60°C, one color (black). Heat barely moves. Flexural strength is the jump. Impact goes the other way.
CF PLA is the stiff line inside the engineering family: drone parts, tools, structural prototypes and jigs, with a matte carbon-fiber look. Standard PLA stays the education, prototype and figurine line. Writing “PLA” on a jig that needs the carbon-fiber stiffness does not turn the 10-color card into the black CF card.
Own compounding, 20 extrusion lines, 500 tons a month, in Foshan next to Guangzhou. Each card has its own usual 50 kg after 1–2 sample rolls of that card. Ocean freight stays on the buyer’s forwarder. FOB Foshan.
Order check: the part must be stiffer, and black is acceptable → CF PLA. The part is an everyday prototype and needs a color from the 10-color card → PLA. The grade has not been printed here → samples, then 50 kg.
