ETEC Xtreme 8K 3D Printing Material Will Expand Your Printing Capabilities

ETEC Xtreme 8K 3D Printing Material

As new 3D Printing materials expand, so does Additive Manufacturing’s ability to solve more production applications. Having a printer that can do it all is challenging because there is no one best-fit technology. However, ETEC’s Xtreme 8K solves many problems:

  • It has a heated vat that allows users to process a wide variety of highly viscous materials including hard plastics, high-temperature plastics, elastomers and rubbers.
  • Some great examples are Elastic ToughRubber™, which is perfect for shoe midsoles and heel cups, seals, door boots, bellows, foam-like lattice structures and impact parts. It also prints in Soft ToughRubber™ which prints parts that are soft, flexible and functional silicone-like with fine print feature detail.
  • The Xtreme 8K’s innovative, top-down printing method eliminates the peeling step required in traditional DLP, as well as fewer supports. This allows the Xtreme 8K to deliver exceptionally fast print-to-part speeds.
  • The Xtreme 8K also features the largest build volume of any production-grade DLP printer. This allows you to print everything from very large parts to thousands of small parts in a single build.

The ability to produce many parts or very large parts in specialty engineering materials at extremely fast speeds changes the game for a lot of businesses. Are you interested in learning more? If so, just click the link below to watch a customer and see how they’re using the Xtreme 8k.
