3D Printing & Rapid Prototyping

UltiMaker Tough PLA 3D printing material is a technical PLA (polylactic acid) with a toughness similar to ABS. It is ideal for printing functional prototypes and tooling at larger sizes – without fear of delamination or warping. Designs with intricate curves, fine details, and overhangs can be easily printed with Tough PLA, especially when combined with Breakaway or water-soluble PVA support.

UltiMaker ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) 3D printing material is formulated to minimize warping and ensure consistent interlayer adhesion. It is a great choice for creating functional prototypes and complex end-use parts. ABS can accurately simulate the form, fit, and function of an end-use part’s performance – giving you confidence in the final design.

Ultimaker Nylon is a polyamide grade based on PA6/66. It features reduced humidity absorption and a longer shelf life compared to other nylon filaments. Able to withstand significant mechanical stress, nylon material is a great choice for 3D printing tools, functional prototypes, and end-use parts. Strong and durable, it is an ideal filament choice based on PA6/66 for manufacturing spare or replacement parts that must withstand heavy use.

Ultimaker PETG (Polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified) is a durable and industrial 3D printing material. PETG is a modified version of PET, the plastic you likely associate with disposable water bottles and other clear containers. PETG is best known for its durability and strength, and the plastic is resistant to high temperatures, UV rays, water, chemical solvents, and more. All of this makes PETG an ideal filament material option for printing parts that will exist in harsh environments or have to undergo a lot of physical stress.

UltiMaker  CPE+ 3D printing material is chemical resistant with high dimensional stability, with the added advantages of increased temperature resistance and higher impact strength compared to abs. CPE+  has properties that offer increased thermal resistance and impact strength for applications that need to stand up to wear and tear.

Ultimaker PC (polycarbonate) 3D print material is tough, strong, and retains dimensional stability when subjected to temperatures as high as 110 ºC.  Polycarbonate 3D printing material properties make it perfect for printing molds, tools, functional prototypes, and parts for short-run manufacturing. PC filament also has an amorphous polymer. This means it is highly effective in transmitting light through 3D printed parts.

UltiMaker PP (polypropylene) 3D printing material is a durable, chemical resistant material. It has exceptional fatigue resistance, high levels of toughness, and a low-friction co-efficient. From electrical components to living hinges, PP is the go-to material for prototyping and end-use parts. UltiMaker PP has high fatigue resistance and does not break when repeatedly bent. Clamps and living hinges can remain functional for the lifetime of the printed part. PP 3D printing material is an excellent choice when a design requires translucent properties for aesthetic purposes.

UltiMaker TPU 95A (thermoplastic polyurethane) is a flexible material, making it ideal for applications that demand chemical resistance and the qualities of rubber and plastic. Use the versatile and flexible properties of TPU 95A to conform to an existing part’s surface geometry, or standalone component designs. Our TPU filament is perfect for 3D printing parts that must retain structural and surface characteristics while subjected to mechanically or chemically harsh environments.
