CRP Technology has launched Windform FX Black, a new material within the Windform range of materials for professional 3D printing.
Windform FX Black is a polyamide-based composite material with a dark black colour. Its mechanical characteristics make it particularly suited for additive manufacturing applications.
Windform FX Black is characterised by exceptional resistance to repeated bending and torsion, and excellent impact resistance even at low temperatures.
Its consistency and behaviour are similar to polypropylene and ABS injection moulded parts. No post-production treatments are needed, as the material has an excellent surface finish in its sintered state. Any additional manual finishing improves its polish.
Windform FX Black is perfect not only for flexible components with fine details, but also for creating accurate, reliable, and long lasting prototypes.
It can be considered a highly valuable material in various functional applications and parts with living hinges or clip fittings.
It is also suitable for ducting of complex shapes, or for thin-walled connectors with snap-fit systems.
