Polylactic Acid provides a popular option for many prototypes due to its dimensional accuracy and ability to hold its shape. PLA comes from natural and biodegradable sources, offering a great alternative for customers wanting an environmentally friendly material.
Pros
● Holds shape
● Smooth finish
● Biodegradable
● Large colour range
Cons
● Can be brittle
● Susceptible to heat
Used in many household goods such as Lego and bicycle helmets, Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene is a strong and heat resistant printing material, offering incredible toughness.
Pros
● High strength
● High durability
● High heat tolerance
● Large colour range
Cons
● Rougher finish vs PLA
Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol-modified (PETG) is similar in make-up to one of the world’s most commonly used plastics (PET). It provides an impact resistant printing material, with a range of colours available.
Pros
● Impact resistant
● Flexible
● High durability
● Weather resistant
Cons
● More dense than PLA and ABS
● Surface can scratch easily
Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate was developed as an alternative to ABS in the 1970s and has become a very popular printing material in automotive and sporting goods. ASA provides increased resistance to weather and incredible strength and rigidity.
Pros
● Impact resistant
● Wear resistant
● UV resistant
Cons
● Minimal colour choices
Thermoplastic elastomers are rubber-like plastics, making them highly flexible and durable. TPE is commonly used in the production of automotive parts, household appliances, and medical supplies.
Pros
● Good abrasion resistance
● High flexibility & durability
● UV resistant
Cons
● Reduced dimensional accuracy
Ideal for functional applications, Nylon remains an excellent choice for many 3D prototypes. It is generally ranked No. 1 in terms of strength, flexibility and durability. A great choice for small batch production runs.
Pros
● High flexibility, durability, strength
Cons
● Can be costly
● Rough surface finish
Carbon Fibre Nylon is one of the leading materials in FDM printing due to its extreme functionality and material properties. Carbon Fibre Nylon combines high strength, high rigidity, good toughness and lightweight while still providing wear resistance from the nylon blend.
Pros
● Lightweight
● High strength
● Great for functional applications
Cons
● Can be costly
● Limited to black colour
