3D printing with mechanically durable plastics
Polyamide resins (PAs), which are used in selective laser sintering, are long-term stable and mechanically durable materials with high resistance to many chemicals. Our plastics are available in almost all colors and can be selected in the online configurator. On request, we will produce media-dense objects for you. You can choose between a variety of unfilled plastics as well as filled, soft, and highly temperature-stable plastics. With our wide range of materials we can find the best solution for every requirement.
PA11 (PA1101)
Characteristics
Uses: Objects made of PA 1101, which is based on polyamide 11, feature very high flexibility and resistance to chemicals. This material is used for functional prototypes with high resistance to thermal and mechanical stress.

PA12 grey
Characteristics
PA 12 Grey is a pigment-filled polyamide powder developed by Oceanz for the manufacturing of laser sintered parts that are grey throughout.
Typical applications for the material are fully functional parts in design quality subject to high mechanical or thermal loads. The grey appearance often looks better in technical areas than white parts. As this colour is throughout, scratches or subsequent holes do not degrade the appearance. The parts are also less susceptible to soiling, as soiling is less conspicuous against the grey background.

PA6x
Uses: PA6x is a powder based on polyamid 6.13. PA6x is mostly used for high temperature applications and high mechanical loads. In comparison with the standard SLS material PA2200, PA6x offers a higher elongation at break (30 %) and a higher tensile strength (58 MPa). The high youngs modulus of 2300 MPa is an additional advantage of PA6x over PA2200 (1650 MPa).

Uses: Polypropylene (PP) is a standard plastic used in the manufacture of
many everyday objects. Thanks to its extremely long durability and
excellent chemical resistance, PP is preferred for producing vehicle
body and interior moldings. Packaging of all kinds, medical devices
and household items are also produced from the thermoplastic.

3D data check
The data check is always done automatically. This procedure guarantees a consistently high quality. After uploading your file to our server, the software checks the file for manufacturability. Small errors are repaired automatically. In the case of large errors, you will be informed before printing and asked for approval by means of a preview.
TIP:Upload your file and have it automatically repaired by the software. You will then be able to download the repaired file under the item “File Info.” In addition, the file is saved in your account.
