AMOLEN Silk PLA Filament 1.75mm 3D Printer filaments, Shiny Silver Grey Filament for 3D Printing, 1kg(2.2lbs) Spool, Compatible with Most FDM Printer(Silk Silver Grey)

I’ve purchased this color twice and love it. The color is eye catching and shimmers like mica. It just adds a special touch! This is a great color for snakes or spiders if you’re printing any kind of critters. It prints well and has no tangles. There’s not stringing or bumpy texture either. Overall it’s a great filament for a decent price. Will continue to purchase this variety in the future!

This prints beautifully and easily. I used my silk pla settings and had no issues. It works great on models with a lot of details and my castle came out perfect. I only dry my spools a few hours before using them since they're rarely 100 percent upon arrival and I had zero issues printing.

A great filament to work with. It produces very nice looking models. I had no problem using it with my Prusa XL even with articulated models.

The color blend of this filament is A-1. However it depends on what you're printing. Printing smalled objects may result in a mono colored print however larger prints in my experience were impressive. The quality of the filament is good and it loads easily. There isn't a high glossy look to my prints but they do have this glittery effect that makes up for the less than silky gloss. The smaller print took about an hour while the larger took more like 20 hours. I didn't score this filament a 5 star only because a 5 star in my opinion is reserved for those mind-blowing results where the product totally out performed my expectations. This filament is worth the buy of you're printing medium to large objects, or several small prints but you want them to have unique variations in color blends.

THIS... Is amolen branded PLA and I can honestly speak on behalf of almost every single color and dual color they have to offer. Amolen is one of the top filament brands that I have come across that really doesn't charge an arm and a leg. Is this filament more expensive than the easy go-to $15 rolls? Yes. That being said, the final product is unparalleled. If you are new to 3D printing then please take my advice and don't cheap out on the filament that you use, and the temp guide that comes with amolen PLA is pretty good as well. The wood filament is always between 20 and 30% real wood and I can actually sand and stain my products as well. If you are having stringing issues just do retraction 2mm for direct drive or 5-6mm for non-direct drive and that pretty much solved my issues on the wood filament (and a good general rule of thumb). As for the dual-color filament, it is super cool but something that has a learning curve. A gyoid pattern can cause the filament to spin on the spool somewhat and mess up the pattern on your print, but as far as the actual filament it is some of the easiest to print with without tangles. Amolen has quickly become one of the brands that I trust to deliver consistent prints without clogs, even on the Silk PLA I never have a clog which is the one that I usually clog on. Amolen also always has really good deals to go with their filaments and offers several color and material types (even TPU!) so you can rest assured that you have a trusted filament brand for most of your printing demands.

I really wanted to like this filament, it looks really nice but the layer adhesion and strength of the final product is terrible. I tried various settings and was unable to get smaller more intricate prints to hold up, they would print fine and look great but fall part if you look at them wrong, good luck getting them off the print bed in one piece. I literally used over half a roll of filament testing various settings and nothing worked. I got to the point I reached out to Amolen for support, to which they replied to increase the wall thickness, hmm go figure thicker wall = stronger part right....nope. I tried going as high as 80% infill with 2-3 wall thickness and still yielded the same result. Finally returned the roll for another one thinking I must have a bad roll seeing all the good reviews. In hindsight I see similar reviews mentioning brittle prints. It seems if you are printing anything with area's less than a ~1/4 inch thick they will likely break at these points, even the 2nd replacement roll I received had the same problem right out of the bag. Thicker prints come out fine and look great. So if you are looking to print some nice looking thicker bulky items this is going to work good for you, if you plan to print thinner more intricate parts look for another brand. Update: I will also add that this filament also does not do well with overhangs at all, I print a round egg with several other filaments and they all come out with very minor flaws where the overhang is starting on the base of the sphere, however this filament by far comes out the worst. I would say hands down this is one of the best looking but worst performing filaments I have in my collection of 25+ filaments many of which are silk. It can work well and look great in certain situations or with certain models but I would expect to be limited on what you can produce with this filament.

This is a great filament! The print quality is astonishing on any settings and I can always rely on the adhesion to be perfect. The shine and deep color of this PLA makes this by far my favorite filament to print my Flexi Phoenix with. Everything always comes out looking and feeling great from test prints to final products. This is a must buy for any Flexi Factory model!

servizio prime sempre ottimo, non ho ancora provato il prodotto packaging ottimo tutto sottovuoto i colori sono come da foto appena lo avrò provato lo descriverò.

Heute habe ich mal das Glow in the Dark PLA 1,75 von Amolen getestet . Da ich noch nie so ein PLA gedruckt habe wollte ich das auch mal versuchen. Hatte jetzt schon so einige PLAs der Firma Amolen und war bisher immer begeistert. ▂ ▃ ▄ Verpackung ▄ ▃ ▂ Das Glow in the Dark (grün und blau) PLA kam in der heutzutage üblichen Verpackung. Kleiner Karton mit beiden Rollen drin – diese waren Vakuumiert und es war ein Flyer mit allen PLAs dabei und deren Temperaturen ▂ ▃ ▄ Durchmesser / Qualität ▄ ▃ ▂ Wichtig bei bei Filament ist immer der Durchmesser auf mehreren Metern. Große Abweichungen abseits von den 1.75mm beeinträchtigen das Druckergebnis. Deshalb wird das Filament von mir immer auf 10 Meter alle 25cm mit einem Messschieber getestet. Bei diesem PLA habe ich auf diese länge eine max. Abweichung von 0.03 gehabt was ok ist. Gewickelt ist das PLA sehr gut – hatte ich auch schon öfters meine Probleme aber hier keine Spur! ▂ ▃ ▄ Setup ▄ ▃ ▂ Ich habe einen Anet A8 mit Bowden Setup.(E3D Hotend) Ich drucke auf Glas mit einer Bed Temp von 54C. Nach einem TempTower Druck habe ich mich für 190C Nozzle Temp entschieden, weniger ist hier mehr um stringing etc zu vermeiden (Angegeben sind 190-220) ▂ ▃ ▄ Fazit ▄ ▃ ▂ Ich teste gerne neues Filament und das Glow in the Dark PLA von Amolen ist wirklich klasse. Die Rollen sehen beide eher weiß aus und je nach Sonnen/Licht aufladung leuchten sie dann im dunkeln blau oder grün- richtig cool. Zusätzlich dachte ich durch das Leuchtmittel stinkt es extrem giftig beim drucken – hat es aber nicht und Amolen wirbt auch mit „natürlichen“ Zutaten für das PLA. Preislich sehr attraktiv (2 Rollen ~50€) und die Qualität lässt wenig Wünsche offen. Ich bin sehr überzeugt von dem Filament. Nach mehreren Testdrucken und einer Wunderschönen Figur für die Kinder (ein Kürbis der leuchtet) bin ich voll und ganz zufrieden. Die Leuchtkraft ist klasse und es macht wirklich spaß damit Halloween oder andere Dinge zu drucken Bei zu hohen Temperaturen gibt es blobs und stringing also so niedrig wie möglich ansetzen (bei mir hat 190 gereicht) Haftung auf dem Bed ist sehr gut bei oben genanntem Setup. Bläschen oder dergleichen habe ich keine außer bei einem Test mit hoher Temp. Ich bin überzeugt und spreche aufgrund des Preises eine – klare Kaufempfehlung aus

Un gran filamento, realmente estoy muy satisfecho con su calidad, volveré a comprar

I can pull string by string layer by layer (not only the first layer). I've tried to decrease the speed, higher and lower temp doesn't change a thing. I've tried value inside the range for this filament. I've also tried to dry it, doesn't change a thing. The first layer seems fine at first but it can be riped apart. This is the only brand that I have that does that. Won't buy anything from AMOLEN anymore.

Das Produkt an sich ist gut......aber von 2 farbig kann nicht wirklich die Rede sein......es ist eher ein flipflop Filament mit Glitter in Grün. Ich bin hierbei eher von einem Filament in in der Art wie Regenbogen Filament ausgegangen. Also mit Farbverlauf. Haftung und Qualität ist aber Gut bis sehr gut. Nur halt die Beschreibung hatte ich anders interpretiert.....
