WORKS WITH:
PEEK
Polyether Ether Ketone
Is a high-technology and high-performance polymer with exceptional properties for end-use parts in the most demanding applications. Also can be used as a metal replacement solution for critical components.
It’s resistance to extremely harsh conditions in terms of chemical resistance, mechanical performance, and high energy radiation makes it a widely used material from industrial uses to medical implants.
Smart3D Macro provides a complete solution for printing this high-performance polymer at its best performance, preserving its high temperature glass transition point throughout the 3D printing process.
MAIN FEATURES:
- Highly resistant to harsh chemicals
- Exceptional strength and stiffness in demanding conditions when printed in a heated chamber.
- Outstanding performance in high-temperature conditions.
- High abrasion and cut-through resistance.
- Highly inert.
- Resistant to gamma, electron beam as well as transparent to X-rays.
SOME APPLICATIONS:
- Great alternative for end-use parts in the transportation industry and aerospace, for a highly resistant and lightweight alternative to metal.
- Ideal for parts used in the medical and chemical industry due to its high resistance to chemical exposition.
- Exceptional lightweight alternative for high-performance parts.
- Biocompatible and widely used in surgical implantology and medical device manufacturing, with tensile modulus similar to human bone.
- Ideal for high energy exposure applications.
