I tried creating something using PP filament!
【Mita Repo】What kind of material is PP filament? I tried 3D printing with CreatBot F160-PEEK! | System Create
"Mitarepo" is a series that introduces what can be done using various products with the concept of "I tried doing this!" From the wide range of product genres handled by System Create, we deliver useful information each time. In Vol. 75, we will create a bottle-shaped model using PP filament and check the quality of the completed model. Various materials are available for use in Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printers. In recent years, many filaments of "general-purpose resin" have been circulating in the market, used for various everyday applications. This time, we will use one such general-purpose resin, "Polypropylene (PP)," and create it with the smallest and most affordable model in our FDM 3D printer "CreatBot" series, the "F160-PEEK." PP material is known for being difficult to print due to its properties, but will it be able to be printed beautifully? In the document, we will actually print the bottle-shaped model and present the quality of the model along with actual photos. You can download the document from the button below.

I hope this will be helpful for those considering the introduction of a small 3D printer.
