Case study
There are many possible applications of flexible filaments in the industry, engineers increasingly use rubber-like elastomer materials with different levels of stiffness in their work.
The use of an industrial 3D printer allows easily replacing the grinder’s side handle in case of damage of the original.
InnoFlex 60 is characterised by reduced carbon footprint and improved elastic performance. It’s stiffest available with Shore hardness 60D.
There are not so many industrial 3D printers capable of printing simultaneously with engineering materials such as ABS, fiber-reinforced polyamides or PC and now also with TPU.
3DGence INDUSTRY F340 is an exception on the market due to its versatility. Thanks to the use of a direct system, this 3D printer can handle both stiff and flexible materials. The flow control system in this industrial 3D printer ensures precise filament feeding speed, which in the case of TPU plastics is necessary to obtain high-quality prints.
There may be a lot of crisis situation in the future that we can’t control. 3D printing can help you with many different applications through many materials. If you have not idea what filaments will proper for your project, you can consult it with our experts: [email protected]
