The newest Factor 4 material: Industrial 3D printing with PPS CF

Introducing the latest innovation in industrial 3D printing: UltiMaker PPS CF. This cutting-edge material is reinforced with 10% carbon fiber, which significantly enhances its chemical resistance, heat resistance, and dimensional stability. These properties make it an ideal choice for demanding applications in the automotive, aerospace, and defense industries, where parts are often exposed to harsh environments and high temperatures. UltiMaker PPS CF stands out as a cost-effective alternative to high-end metals and PEEK, offering substantial benefits such as lightweighting, reduced material waste, and increased design freedom. This material not only helps in creating durable and efficient components but also contributes to more sustainable manufacturing practices.

One of the key advantages of UltiMaker PPS CF is its compatibility with the UltiMaker Factor 4 and print core HT. This ensures precise and reliable 3D printing results, allowing professionals to achieve high-quality outputs consistently. The material’s robustness and versatility make it suitable for producing a wide range of parts, from functional prototypes to end-use components. Whether you’re working on automotive parts that need to withstand corrosive substances or aerospace components that must endure extreme temperatures, UltiMaker PPS CF provides the performance and reliability required for such critical applications.

In addition to its technical benefits, UltiMaker PPS CF also supports innovative design possibilities. The integration of carbon fiber not only enhances the material’s strength but also allows for more complex geometries and lightweight structures. This opens up new avenues for engineers and designers to explore creative solutions without compromising on performance. By choosing UltiMaker PPS CF, you are investing in a material that combines advanced engineering with practical efficiency, paving the way for the future of industrial 3D printing.
