Key Features of Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue
1. High-Speed Printing Support – 50mm/s to 750mm/s
A key advertised feature of Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue is its ability to support printing speeds ranging from 50mm/s to 750mm/s.
This broad range gives users the option to select conventional speeds for detailed printing or explore faster printing profiles on compatible machines.
For engineering and prototyping workflows, faster printing may help reduce the time required to produce suitable models.
However, the advertised maximum speed of 750mm/s does not mean every printer can achieve reliable extrusion at that speed.
Actual printing speed depends on the printer’s motion system, acceleration, hotend melting capacity, nozzle diameter, volumetric flow, cooling system and model geometry.
Fine details, bridges, overhangs and visible outer walls may need to be printed more slowly for acceptable quality.
Users should begin with a suitable PLA+ profile, calibrate material flow and increase speed gradually while inspecting layer bonding and extrusion quality.
2. Rich Deep Blue Colour
The defining visual feature of Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue is its distinctive solid deep-blue appearance.
Unlike brighter Electric Blue or lighter Sky Blue variants, Deep Blue offers a darker, more understated colour suitable for professional-looking objects.
It is useful for electronic enclosure prototypes, industrial design samples, geometric sculptures and customized desktop accessories.
Deep Blue also pairs well with white, silver, grey and black in multicolour assemblies.
The solid-colour appearance can emphasize raised lettering, geometric details and smooth model surfaces under suitable lighting.
NFIL3D emphasizes controlled colour formulation to support a consistent blue appearance.
The final printed shade and sheen may vary with nozzle temperature, printing speed, layer height and lighting conditions.
3. Higher Strength Than Regular PLA
Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue is manufactured using an enhanced PLA+ formulation intended to provide higher strength than conventional PLA.
This makes the filament useful for suitable prototype housings, organizers, decorative components and lightweight accessories.
The formulation is developed for practical handling durability while maintaining convenient PLA-based printing characteristics.
However, finished-part strength depends on print orientation, wall thickness, infill density, layer bonding, geometry and temperature settings.
When printing at high speeds, adequate melting and layer bonding are important for maintaining mechanical performance.
Users should evaluate completed objects before using them under heavy loads, elevated temperatures or safety-critical conditions.
4. Precision 1.75mm Diameter with ±0.015mm Tolerance
Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue has a nominal filament diameter of 1.75mm and an advertised dimensional tolerance of ±0.015mm.
Consistent filament thickness is important because slicing software calculates material delivery based on the filament diameter configured in the printer profile.
Significant variations may cause under-extrusion, over-extrusion, inconsistent layer widths or surface irregularities.
NFIL3D emphasizes diameter control to support predictable material feeding through compatible extrusion systems.
Dimensional consistency is particularly valuable when using higher printing speeds because the extruder must deliver material at an appropriate rate.
The stated ±0.015mm measurement describes filament diameter tolerance, not guaranteed dimensional accuracy of a completed 3D printed part.
5. Nozzle-Friendly PLA+ Formulation
Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue is intended for consistent extrusion through compatible FDM printer hotends.
Its material formulation and controlled filament dimensions are developed to support reliable feeding under suitable operating conditions.
A clean nozzle, correctly calibrated extruder and appropriate printing temperature remain important for successful printing.
At higher speeds, the hotend must melt enough filament to meet the selected extrusion demand.
Insufficient hotend capacity can lead to under-extrusion, gaps and weak layer bonding.
Users should check the printer’s maximum volumetric flow and choose an appropriate speed profile.
No filament can guarantee completely clog-free printing under every operating condition.
6. Moisture Management with Two Desiccants
Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue is supplied with two desiccants intended to reduce humidity exposure during storage.
PLA-based filament can absorb moisture from the surrounding environment over time.
Moisture-affected material may produce bubbling, stringing, rough surfaces or inconsistent extrusion.
The included desiccants help maintain suitable storage conditions but do not guarantee permanently moisture-free filament.
After opening the spool, keep unused material in a sealed container or protective bag with suitable desiccant.
For technical information, refer to the Prusa Filament Drying and Storage Guide.
7. Full 1kg Net Filament Weight
Each spool of Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue is specified with a full 1kg net weight of printing filament.
Net filament weight excludes the empty spool and external packaging.
A full kilogram provides material for producing multiple smaller parts or larger individual printing projects.
Users can estimate filament usage through slicing software before starting a print.
For repeated high-speed printing jobs, reviewing material consumption can also help with production planning.
8. Consistent Colour for Multiple Prints
Colour consistency is important when printing several components that belong to the same assembly or decorative collection.
NFIL3D emphasizes controlled colour formulation to support a uniform Deep Blue appearance.
Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue is suitable for matching prototype housings, organizers, design samples and model accessories.
Maintaining consistent printing temperatures, layer heights and outer-wall speeds can help reduce differences in surface appearance across printing sessions.
9. Over 30 Years of Polymer Expertise
NFIL3D draws on more than 30 years of experience in polymer raw materials, additives and material processing.
This background contributes to its focus on filament formulation, dimensional consistency and manufacturing control.
The Turbo-Finish Deep Blue variant combines this experience with a high-speed printing formulation and a versatile professional colour.

Recommended Printing Settings for Turbo-Finish PLA+ Filament
For dependable results with Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue, begin with an appropriate PLA+ or high-speed PLA+ printing profile and follow the NFIL3D packaging instructions.
Nozzle Temperature: Use the manufacturer’s recommended temperature range and adjust within it according to extrusion requirements.
Bed Temperature: Select a suitable heated-bed temperature and keep the print surface clean.
Layer Height: A 0.20mm layer height is a useful starting point with a standard 0.4mm nozzle.
Printing Speed: Begin at a speed supported by the printer, then increase gradually after checking extrusion, surface quality and layer bonding.
Outer-Wall Speed: Use appropriate speeds for visible surfaces and fine details, even when internal walls and infill are printed faster.
Maximum Volumetric Flow: Check that the hotend can melt enough filament for the requested speed, line width and layer height.
Acceleration: Select values appropriate for the printer’s motion system and model geometry.
Part Cooling: Adjust cooling according to bridges, overhangs, short layer times and adhesion requirements.
Storage: Keep unused filament in a sealed, dry environment with suitable desiccant.
Understanding Volumetric Flow at High Printing Speeds
To configure Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue for faster printing, users should understand the relationship between speed and required material flow.
The approximate calculation is:
Required Volumetric Flow = Line Width × Layer Height × Printing Speed
For example, with a 0.45mm line width and 0.20mm layer height:
| Actual Printing Speed | Approximate Required Flow |
|---|---|
| 100mm/s | 9mm³/s |
| 200mm/s | 18mm³/s |
| 300mm/s | 27mm³/s |
| 500mm/s | 45mm³/s |
| 750mm/s | 67.5mm³/s |
These values describe theoretical material demand, not verified hotend or filament performance.
A printer may also be unable to reach the configured speed on short toolpaths because of acceleration limits.
The correct printing speed should be selected according to the actual flow capacity, cooling and print-quality requirements of the machine.
Tips for Better Deep Blue 3D Prints
The final appearance and strength of Turbo-Finish PLA+ Deep Blue depend on the filament’s condition, printer calibration and selected slicing settings.
For professional-looking prototypes, use consistent outer-wall speeds to maintain a uniform surface appearance.
When switching from another filament colour, purge the nozzle thoroughly to reduce unwanted colour mixing.
For larger models, verify first-layer adhesion and build-plate cleanliness before starting a long printing job.
If high-speed printing produces gaps or weak layers, reduce printing speed or adjust the temperature within the recommended operating range.
For detailed decorative models, use smaller layer heights when appropriate.
Choose print orientation carefully to reduce support marks on important visible surfaces.
Store unused filament in sealed packaging between printing sessions.
If stringing, bubbling or uneven extrusion occurs, review the nozzle temperature, retraction settings and possible moisture exposure.
