FDM PMMA

Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA), commonly known as acrylic or plexiglass, offers optical clarity and excellent mechanical properties, such as high tensile strength and impact resistance. Additionally it provides chemical- and UV-resistance.

FDM

PETG-ESD

PETG-ESD combines the mechanical properties of standard PETG with controlled dissipation of electrostatic charges.

FDM

ABS-ESD

ABS-ESD combines the mechanical properties of standard ABS with controlled dissipation of electrostatic charges.

FDM

HIPS

HIPS is a material blend of polystyrene plastic and polybutadiene rubber. The mixture of these polymers results in a material that is both tough and resistant to impact.

FDM

Metal-Filled PLA

Metal-filled PLA is the fusion of standard PLA with metal powder used to provide a metal-textured feeling. Metal-filled PLA is popular with items that do not have functional capabilities, rather an aesthetic appearance.

FDM

PETG-HT

PETG-HT is an enhanced version of PETG, specifically designed to withstand high temperatures and exhibit excellent mechanical properties.

FDM

PHA

PHA (Polyhydroxyalkanoate) filament is a biodegradable type of plastic used in 3D printing, made through the fermentation of plant sugars by bacteria. It a great choice for applications that require biodegradability.

FDM

PET

PET 3D prints offer a strong balance of toughness, chemical resistance, and dimensional stability. The material produces durable parts with good layer adhesion and a semi-gloss surface finish.

FDM

Conductive PLA

Conductive PLA is a version of PLA that is perfect for parts that need to be electrically conductive. It has a volume resistivity (perpendicular to layers) of 30 ohm-cm.

FDM

ABS Kevlar

ABS infused with short Kevlar fibres.

FDM

Lightweight PLA

Lightweight PLA (LW-PLA) is a specialized 3D printing filament that expands up to three times its volume for lighter prints without losing the strength of standard PLA.

FDM

Color-Changing PLA

Temperature-based color-changing PLA is ideal for novelty prints.

FDM

PLA-ESD

PLA-ESD combines the mechanical properties of standard PLA with controlled dissipation of electrostatic charges.

FDM

ABS

CNC-milled ABS is strong, impact-resistant, and ideal for prototypes and housings. It machines well, has a matte finish, and is widely used in engineering, electronics, and product design.
