Filament PM PLA+ Skin 479C

PLA+ Skin Edition - Skin 479C

PLA+ Skin Edition in shade 479C is a response to the growing demand for filaments in skin tones. This filament is the result of careful colour selection based on data from The Johns Hopkins Hospital and collaboration with e-NABLE, an organisation specialising in prosthetics manufacturing. The result is a unique Pantone 479C shade that is ideal for printing realistic human skin models, such as bionic limbs or mannequins.

Filament PM is a long-established Czech filament manufacturer with emphasis on sustainability and ecology. The filament is wound on 100% recycled spools and manufactured from renewable resources. This PLA+ material is easy to print, has higher layer adhesion and better mechanical properties than standard PLA.

Key Features

• Enhanced printing properties: Lower printing temperature (190-210 °C) enables better bridging and overhang printing.
• Higher toughness: Printed objects are more flexible under stress due to better layer adhesion.
• Easy printability: High viscosity prevents nozzle clogging and the filament better tolerates insufficient cooling during printing.
• Matte surface: The resulting prints have an attractive matte appearance, ideal for design projects.

Technical Specifications

• Filament diameter: 1.75 mm
• Diameter tolerance: ±0.05 mm
• Spool weight: 1 kg
• Pantone shade: 479C
• Material: PLA+ (biodegradable)

Print Settings

• Nozzle temperature: 190 - 210 °C
• Bed temperature: 60 °C

Advantages

• Matte surface suitable for design projects.
• High diameter accuracy thanks to laser measurement during production.
• Higher viscosity prevents nozzle clogging.

Disadvantages

• Low temperature resistance (softens at temperatures above 50 °C).

Packaging

The filament is wound on a new generation spool. This type of spool is designed to ensure easier handling and storage of the filament. The spool is protected by a double cover that provides protection against UV radiation and moisture, helping to keep the filament in optimal condition for printing.

Storage

Store the filament in a dry and dark environment. It is recommended to store the filament in a sealed plastic bag or storage box.
