New Production-grade Nylon Material for Expanded Applications
3D Systems is announcing
DuraForm® ProX EX NAT (planned availability June 2019). This new material joins the company's portfolio of production-grade nylons for its SLS 3D printers. DuraForm ProX EX NAT is a tough, impact-resistant natural colored PA 11 nylon material that handles the rigors of repeated cycling and use, even in harsh environments. It enables consistent production of natural white color parts that can replace injection molded ABS and polypropylene. Its durability makes it especially suitable for applications like snap fits and living hinges requiring hundreds of open-close cycles, as well as testing in real-life scenarios like crash tests or other stress simulations.
