3D Printing Material and Finish
Here at JawsTec we offer a variety of materials and finishes options to help you, our customers get top-notch parts upon arrival.
JawsTec Materials
SLS Nylon - White powder sintered together with a laser. High-dimensional accuracy and good strength qualities. Can be dyed any color with more vibrant bright colors. Wall thickness recommendation is 1 mm.
MJF Nylon 11 - Ink Jet sintering that provides a raw ash grey part. Thermoplastic material delivering optimal mechanical properties. Wall thickness recommendation is 1 mm. PA11 is ideal for production ductile, quality, functional parts.
MJF Nylon 12 - Ink Jet sintering that provides a raw ash grey part. High-dimensional accuracy and high strength qualities. Best parts are black but colors can be used with a darker based and inconsistences. Wall thickness recommendation is 1 mm.
MJF Polypropylene - Ink Jet Sintering that provides a raw ash grey part. Polypropylene is a versatile material ideal for a wide range of automotive, consumer, industrial, and medical applications. Wall thickness recommendation is 1 mm.
MJF Glass-Filled Nylon - Ink Jet sintering that provides a raw ash grey part. Glass-Filled provides more rigidity for stronger parts. High-dimensional accuracy and high strength qualities. Best parts are black but colors can be used with a darker based and some inconsistences. Wall Thickness recommendation is 1 mm.
TPU - A rubber-like plastic that is sintered together with a laser at low temperature. High -dimensional accuracy and very strong. Recommended to have wall thickness of at or above 0.75 mm.
JawsTec Finishes
Raw - Raw is the surface finish right out of the printer after all the excess power has been removed.
Tumbled - Tumbled is the part being placed in plastic bead media and tumbled for 1 to 2 hours for a smoother finish.
Polished - Polished is the part being tumbled and then shot-peened. This provides a very smooth part.
Vapor Polished - Vapor Polish is the process of smoothing the surface of 3D Printed parts. The results give your parts the look of professionally made injection molded parts.
Whether you order MJF, SLS, or TPU, we make sure you get top quality material and finishes.
