Meet deadlines and stay on budget with high-strength composite printing.
Make workholding fixtures, soft jaws, and component parts with composite 3D printing in a fraction of the time and cost it takes to machine a metal equivalent. F123CR printers supplement traditional fabrication technologies, allowing industrial manufacturers to replace metal components with high-strength 3D printed composite parts. This accelerates throughput while avoiding the opportunity cost of using production resources or the lead time of outsourcing.
F123CR printers use ABS-CF10 and FDM® Nylon-CF10 composite materials, both reinforced with chopped carbon fiber, 10% by weight for strength and stiffness. F123CR soluble support material enables complex designs that cannot be made with conventional machining or other 3D printers that don’t have this capability. Four layer resolutions give you flexibility on part quality and print speed. Variable part density gives you the freedom to make fully-dense, solid parts or adjust the infill to save weight and material use.
