Choosing the Right Material for Your 3D Printed...

Selecting the correct material is one of the most important decisions when producing a 3D printed part. The right choice affects strength, durability, appearance, cost, and how the part performs...

PA6 NYLON

PA6, also known as Nylon 6, is an engineering-grade thermoplastic designed for high-strength, high-wear, and demanding mechanical applications. It’s the go-to material when parts need to withstand continuous load, friction,...

TPU

TPU is a flexible 3D printing material designed for parts that need to bend, compress, and absorb impact without breaking. It’s ideal for protective components, vibration-damping parts, and flexible mechanisms...

ASA

ASA is an engineering-grade thermoplastic designed for long-term outdoor use. It offers similar strength and heat resistance to ABS but with significantly improved UV and weather resistance, making it ideal...

ABS

ABS is a well-established engineering plastic used across automotive, consumer, and industrial products. In 3D printing, ABS is valued for its toughness and heat resistance, making it a strong choice...

PLA-CF

PLA-CF (Carbon Fibre Reinforced PLA) is a step up from standard PLA, offering increased stiffness, reduced flex, and a professional finish. It’s ideal for parts that need to be rigid,...
