New High Temperature materials for 3D printing

    Jan. 3, 2012
    New High Temperature materials from Objet let users test thermal performance of parts.
    New High Temperature Material from Objet is available for use on Objet Connex500 and Eden500V 3D printers. The new material simulates the thermal performance of engineering plastics while maintaining dimensional stability, so it allows for the genuine thermal functional testing of 3D printed parts and prototypes. For instance, the material’s temperature resistance makes it highly beneficial for thermal testing of static parts such as hot air-flow or hot water-flow in taps and faucets.
