Anycubic PLA Metal
1.75mm 1kg
Product Features
● Metallic texture and minimal layer lines
● Controllable luster and metallic details
● Impact-resistant and flexible
● Contains no metal particles that can damage the nozzle

Metallic texture & minimal layer lines
The model has a striking metallic sheen that mimics the appearance of real metal, so no post-processing or coating is required. The very smooth and refined surface with no visible layer lines provides a high-quality finish, ideal for mechanical models, armor, and alloy models.
*Anycubic PLA Metal has an optimized formula for metallic luster without large metal particles that can damage the nozzle, reducing nozzle wear during printing.

Controllable luster and metallic details
By fine-tuning the print temperature and speed, you can easily create a realistic model with excellent color contrast.
(Print parameters: nozzle temperature 220–230 °C, outer wall speed 40–80 mm/s)

Impact-resistant and flexible
PLA Metal improves toughness and impact strength compared to standard PLA, making it less prone to cracking. It is compatible with common PLA print parameters, so no extra adjustments are required.

Easy intelligent printing
Anycubic filaments are equipped with the Intelligent Filament Recognition system, which provides optimal print efficiency when used with ACE Pro. The system automatically recognizes print information to ensure an easy and intelligent print process.
The Intelligent Filament Recognition function requires an internet connection and must be used with Anycubic filaments that support the function.
