Materials

3D printing in PA-CF

Nylon reinforced with carbon fibre, for the parts where stiffness and temperature matter most.

Good for

  • Stiff parts under mechanical load
  • Assembly fixtures and guides
  • Parts working up to about 150 °C

Not good for

  • Parts where PETG is enough: it costs more
  • Flexible parts
  • Electrical insulation: carbon fibre conducts
