XYZprinting exhibits at Formnext 2021 from 16-19 November at Messe Frankfurt, Germany at H12.1 / Stand C51. Visitors can learn more information about the new high powered SLS printer, MfgPro236 xS SLS with printed samples of Ultrasint® PA11 carbon fiber and Ultrasint® PA6 Mineral Filled powders from BASF Forward AM.
BASF Forward AM Ultrasint® PA6 MF (XYZ sPro6MF Powder)
Ultrasint® PA6 MF is one of the premier engineering grade production materials available on any platform in 3D printing. Ultrasint® PA6 MF has exceptionally high stiffness, media tightness and enhanced thermal distortion. (Note: Ultrasint® PA6 MF is not available on HP, 3DSYS.)
BASF Forward AM Ultrasint® PA11 Black
BASF Forward AM's Ultrasint® PA11 Black a bio-based material (castor oil). Typical applications include environments with high deformations and/or specific conditions (e.g. chemical, detergents, oil). It does not splinter in most crash circumstances due to its strong ductility. Skin contact applications are possible with Ultrasint® PA11 Black. This best-in-class SLS material is now available on the XYZprinting MfgPro230 xS and MfgPro236 xS.
