Energy Consumption: FDM materials: PLA vs. PETG vs. PHA
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printing is rapidly becoming a household staple, much like the introduction of personal computers in the early 1980s. This widespread adoption has been largely driven by the open-source community that initially pioneered this technology. We compared the energy consumption between two of the most common FDM filaments, PLA and PETG, with PHA. And we were even surprised at the results!
