Colors and Materials
Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG)
Material Information
A variation of common plastics found in civilian and industrial applications, PETG is a lightweight plastic that benefits from high mechanical strength, temperature resistance, moisture/environmental resistance, durability, and smooth printing. Form Grips in PETG are printed at a 0.2mm layer height which provides a great combination of print accuracy and durability with a textured grip feel. We source excellent quality PETG solely through American suppliers.
Manufacturing Method - FDM
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is the most common and well-known method of 3D printing. FDM melts spooled thermoplastic filaments through heated nozzles to their glass-liquid transition state allowing layered part development. Due to an array of materials, print settings, and post-production processes, FDM printing has a wide variety of applications from modeling and rapid prototyping to working parts or fixtures.
PETG Color Options
ABS-Like Resin
Material Information
The ABS-Like Resin is a sturdy, hardened resin that has a solid, smooth feel and is available in clear (transparent) and painted color options. Painted styles include solid, fluorescent, metallic, and pearl. Form Grips in ABS-Like Resin are sealed with a protective enamel coating.
Manufacturing Method - Resin
3D printing with resin is achieved through curing a liquid resin layer by layer through various methods of applying ultraviolet (UV) light through a clear bottom of a vat. This method of 3D printing offers several advantages such as precise resolution, acrylic resin feel, smooth surfaces, true transparency, and uniform strength.
