3D printing of high toughness materials

Excellent 3D printing material - high toughness resin

Keepros 3D printing

Keepros 3D printing can be used as process (FDM, SLA, SLS, SLM)

When 3D printing the prototype, the commonly used materials are photosensitive resin and nylon material. Generally, the surface of photosensitive resin material is smooth, but the toughness is not good and it is easy to break. The toughness of nylon material is good, but the surface is not smooth and has a strong sense of particles.

We generally recommend using high toughness resin printing for the sample of hand board with high toughness and smooth surface requirements. At present, a yellow green toughness resin 8228 is commonly used by keepros.

High toughness resin is also a kind of photosensitive resin, so the surface quality of molded parts is the same as that of ordinary photosensitive resin, which is relatively smooth and easy to polish, paint and color. High toughness resin has the advantages of general resin. In addition, the high toughness resin also has the advantages of very good bending, tensile and fatigue resistance. For the parts that need to be assembled, in the process of repeated disassembly and assembly, the ordinary resin is not resistant to fatigue and is easy to break, while the high toughness resin can well avoid the above situation.

Before printing, selecting appropriate materials in combination with the functional requirements of samples and the characteristics of materials is also one of the homework that must be done before 3D printing. For the samples with fine details, high precision and high toughness and strength requirements, especially the samples with screw, buckle and other structures, the printing effect of high toughness resin is much better than that of ordinary photosensitive resin. So remember to evaluate and use the most appropriate materials before printing next time!
