EOS, the world’s leading technology supplier in the field of industrial 3D printing of polymers and metals, launched a new flexible polymer material for industrial 3D printing: EOS TPU 1301.
.
EOS This material is a big step towards 3D printing mass production as TPU materials are widely used in applications that demand elastomeric properties and that need easy to process capabilities. To achieve the flexibility and corresponding damping levels needed for different applications, these properties can be adjusted via structural design and the build process parameters used.
.
Tim Rüttermann, Senior Vice President Polymer Systems and Materials at EOS, said: “The EOS TPU 1301 offers a great resilience after deformation, very good shock absorption, and very high process stability, at the same time providing a smooth surface of the 3D printed part.
.
As such the material is particularly suited for applications in footwear, lifestyle and automotive – such as […]
