True Black PLA Precision Model Material for MakerBot Method. Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable thermoplastic derived from renewable resources. Safe for the office, this material is non-toxic and easy-to-print with high reliability and dimensional accuracy. MakerBot precision PLA Material is optimized with the slicing algorithm in our software to give you the best results and highest quality. Ideal for the early stages of concept modelling and form studies, PLA printed objects will generally have a glossier look and feel.

Make sure the built-in desiccant is ion the spool to absorb any moisture exposure during the material loading process.
ABOUT THE MAKERBOT METHOD
MakerBot Method, the first performance 3D printer bridging the gap between industrial and desktop 3D printing. Industrial Reliability + Precision, Fastest CAD to Part, Maximum Innovation + Minimal Investment. Developed from the ground up leveraging industry-leading Stratasys® patents including a heated build chamber, precision dissolvable supports, and dry-sealed material bays.
Dry-Sealed Material Bays
Dry-Sealed Material Bays form a near-perfect seal to keep material free of damaging humidity. A suite of built-in sensors provides that your material is stored in its optimal environment—a feature previously only available in industrial 3D printers.
MakerBot Materials for Method
PRECISION MATERIALS: Extensively tested by MakerBot for the highest reliability and measurably accurate parts.
SPECIALTY MATERIALS: For users looking for special materials with advanced properties to push the limits of what's possible.
