FDM® Nylon 12CF™ is a PA12 (polyamide 12) thermoplastic filament reinforced with chopped carbon fiber, 35% by weight. It has the highest flexural strength of any FDM thermoplastic, resulting in the highest stiffness-to-weight ratio. The combination of high strength, stiffness, and light weight makes it an optimal replacement for heavier metal components in appropriate use cases.
Typical applications include strong, lightweight tooling, functional prototyping and select end-use parts.
FDM Nylon 6™ combines strength and toughness superior to other FDM thermoplastics, for applications that require strong, customized parts and tooling that lasts longer and withstands rigorous functional testing.
Engineered with nylon 6, a popular thermoplastic for manufacturing, this material works with the Fortus 900mc™ to produce durable parts with a clean finish and high break resistance. FDM Nylon 6 is ideal for product manufacturers and development engineers in automotive, aerospace, consumer goods, and industrial manufacturing.
PC-ABS is a blend of polycarbonate (PC) and acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) thermoplastics. The result is an FDM filament that exhibits optimal characteristics of each – excellent strength, high toughness and heat resistance, and good flexural strength. Choose PC-ABS when you need the strength of PC but the impact resistance of ABS.
PC-ABS is suitable for various applications that include prototyping, tooling, and low-volume production. Available colors are black, white, and red.PC-ISO (polycarbonate-ISO), an industrial thermoplastic, is biocompatible in its raw state (ISO 10993 USP Class VI)* and can be gamma or EtO sterilized. PC-ISO is commonly used in food and drug packaging and medical device manufacturing because of the material’s strength and medical compatibility. When combined with a Fortus® 3D Printer, PC-ISO gives you parts that can be used for conceptual modeling, functional prototyping, and production parts.
PC is a polycarbonate FDM® filament that brings the attributes of this industrial plastic to 3D printing applications. PC is characterized by its high strength, impact resistance, dimensional stability, and heat resistance. These attributes make it a good choice for 3D-printed prototypes, parts, and tools that demand higher material properties than ABS or ASA. FDM PC is available in white, black, and red.
Material properties are an important consideration when evaluating additive manufacturing for advanced applications such as production runs of end-use parts. Since these products will be in service for extended periods and in varying conditions, qualifying the properties beyond published specifications is imperative.
ULTEM™ 1010 resin is a flame-retardant, high-performance thermoplastic for direct digital manufacturing and rapid prototyping. ULTEM™ 1010 resin offers good chemical resistance, high heat resistance and tensile strength, and the lowest coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of any FDM® thermoplastic. Its high strength-to-weight ratio and FST (flame, smoke, and toxicity) ratings make it an excellent choice for the commercial transportation industry, especially aerospace, marine, and ground vehicles.
ULTEM™ 1010 resin is offered in a certified grade (ULTEM™ 1010 resin CG), with documentation for food contact and biocompatibility compliance.
ST-130TM is a model material for sacrificial tooling that simplifies the production of hollow composite parts. Complex tools can be 3D printed and easily dissolved after curing, eliminating secondary processes like mold making and accelerating the development and production of composite structures. Engineered and tested specifically for sacrificial tooling, ST-130 withstands the heat and pressure of autoclave curing. And it 3D prints with a permeable triangle fill pattern designed to optimize build speed, conserve material and dissolve quickly.
ST-130 is available on the Fortus 450mcTM and Fortus 900mcTM 3D Printers. This solution provides increased ease of use, improved part yield, and quality – and is ideal for automotive, aerospace, and sporting goods industries.
Victrex AM 200 filament is a high-performance, low-melt PAEK (polyaryletherketone) designed specifically for additive manufacturing. It offers performance capabilities similar to PEEK and PEKK but without the challenges of 3D printing those materials. Victrex AM 200 is formulated to provide dimensional stability and optimal interlayer bonding (Z-strength).
PLA is a renewable plastic material offered as a low-cost option for fast-draft part iterations. Available on the office-friendly Stratasys F123™ Series 3D printers, PLA offers a higher stiffness than ABS, and its low melting point and HDT mean less heat and power required to print parts.
PLA works well at high speeds, specifically fastdraft mode on the Stratasys F123 Series, for quick concept verification and design development. PLA offers good tensile strength and is available in various colors, including various translucent colors. Ideal applications for PLA include fast, early concept modeling and low-cost prototyping.
