Buyer Guide 3D Printing Supplies

Buying good 3D printers is a complicated process. There are dozens of factors to consider, and it’s almost impossible for a consumer to vet them on their own.

Price. 3D printers are expensive. The entry-level models start at around US$500, while high-end models cost as much as US$1,500.
Build Quality. 3D printers are made up of multiple components, and not all of them are created equal. Make sure you pick a model that includes quality components.
Type of Filament. 3D printer filaments come in different materials. The most common ones include PLA (polylactic acid), ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), PETG (polyethylene terephthalate glycol), and PVA (polyvinyl alcohol).
Resolution. 3D printers are more accurate now than ever, but not all of them come with mind-blowing resolutions. Some are capable of printing in resolutions as high as 10 microns (?m).
Speed. 3D printers are fast. The top models can print objects at speeds of up to 220mm/s.
Size. 3D printers come in different sizes, from desktop models to industrial-scale solutions. Look up the dimensions of each model.

How to choose 3D Printing Supplies

Choosing 3D printing supplies requires a little bit of experimentation. However, there are a few things to keep in mind when shopping for materials:

The ABS plastic used in 3D-printed objects often has a bit of giving when it’s warm. This makes it ideal for producing small, fragile, or flexible objects.
PLA (polylactic acid) is a type of biodegradable plastic that’s commonly used by hobbyists and artists. PLA is edible and can be easily recycled after use.
Supports can be added to 3D printed objects, which help the 3D printed object stay upright during the printing process. Support material can be included in the print file, or removed manually afterward.

How to maintain 3D Printing Supplies

3D printing is a new technology that is changing the way people create and engineer new products.

To clean the filament, use soap and water to wet your filament, then wipe it dry with a paper towel.
To clean the nozzles, wipe them with a damp rag.
To clean the build plate, wipe it with a clean, lint-free cloth.
To clean the extruder, use compressed air.
To clean the build plate, first, remove any building material or part from the plate. Then, use a paper towel or paper towel moistened with rubbing alcohol to wipe off the build plate.
To clean the extruder, first, unplug the extruder from the 3D printer. Then, moisten a paper towel or paper towel with rubbing alcohol and wipe down the extruder.
To clean the 3D printer, use compressed air to blow loose dust out of the printer.
To clean the filament, use compressed air to blow loose dust out of the filament.
To clean the nozzle, use compressed air to blow loose dust out of the nozzle.
To clean the build plate, use compressed air to blow loose dust out of the build plate.
To clean the extruder, use compressed air to blow loose dust out of the extruder.
To clean the filament, unplug the extruder from the 3D printer and use compressed air to blow loose dust out of the filament.
To clean the nozzle, unplug the nozzle from the 3D printer and use compressed air to blow loose dust out of the nozzle.
