How Strong is PLA? #3dprinting #compressiontest #shortsvideo

FULL VIDEO HERE:

Slant 3D's latest experiment tests the strength of common 3D printing materials. We put PLA, PETG, ABS, TPU, and Nylon under extreme compression in order to reveal surprising results about their durability when printed. Watch as we push these materials to their limits, from a brittle PLA explosion to the surprising resilience of TPU. Don't miss out on these critical insights for makers, hobbyists, and professionals alike.

About Slant 3D

🏭 High-Volume 3D Printing: Scalability Meets Flexibility
Slant 3D's Large-Scale 3D Print Farms utilize 1000's of FDM 3D printers working 24/7 to offer limitless scalability and unparalleled flexibility. Whether it's 100 or 100,000 parts, our system can handle it reliably, while still allowing for real-time design updates, ensuring products evolve with the times. This adaptability is key in today's fast-paced world.

🌿 Sustainable Manufacturing: Eco-Friendly Efficiency
Embrace a system that drastically reduces carbon emissions by eliminating carbon-intensive steps in the supply chain, such as global shipping and warehousing. Our approach minimizes this footprint, offering a more sustainable manufacturing option.

⚙️ Digital Warehouses: Parts On-Demand
Think of print farms as a "Digital Warehouse", meaning we can store your parts digitally on a server rather than physically on a shelf. parts are available on-demand, reducing the need for extensive physical inventory.

It’s strong enough to make a skeleton who’s raising his eyebrow, so good enough for me

[pierre-antoineroy]

The shape is very interesting. We see barelling as expected but then the top and bottom surface are free to bend.

I don’t understand what the graph is representing. Is it showing the amount of stress the part has or how much pressure was able to be applied?

[tbattistini]

But which direction is stronger in compression? In the direction of the print Z axis or rotated 90 deg on its side as I assume this was?

I wonder how much stronger it would be if you added a top and bottom too. And keep the infill the same. 🤔

This is kind of meaningless without showing the results of other filaments also.
