The right material for heat and load
Depending on the material, 3D-printed parts can warp in warmth, direct sun or under heavy load. PLA in particular is not intended for heat, car interiors in summer or hot dishwasher cycles. That is why SL Design increasingly uses PETG and ABS where more everyday suitability, temperature resistance or load-bearing durability makes sense. The right material is chosen according to use, appearance and the desired sturdiness.
