General Applications

  • Non-flexible mechanical or structural components
  • Jigs, fixtures, or production tools
  • Hard casings for technical equipment or functional prototypes
  • Functional engineering prototypes
  • Precise enclosures requiring stiffness and dimensional stability

Advantages

  • High stiffness and mechanical strength
  • Resists deformation and compressive stress
  • Stable shape and dimensionally reliable

Disadvantages

  • Brittle under high-impact stress
  • Not suitable for flexible or snap-fit parts
  • More difficult to print than other resins
