Low shrinkage & high strength paired up with the advantages of carbon fibres
Polyamide 6 is one of the strongest materials used in desktop 3D printing technology. It combines mechanical strength, stiffness, vibration damping ability and abrasion resistance unmatched by any other types of filaments. It can successfully add chemical resistance and the ability to operate continuously at high temperatures to its wide range of properties.
With the introduction of heat-stabilised, carbon fibre-filled Spectrum PA6 Low Warp CF15S composite material, we set out to raise the bar for nylon filaments even higher. Spectrum PA6 Low Warp CF15S is a true heavy-duty specialist. The “LowWarp” moel is characterised by extra mixture content designed to improve the flow during extrusion of the material – and thus improved adhesion of the material particles. With the use of 15% carbon fibres, the stiffness goes up over two times and tensile strength improves (up to 120 MPa). In addition, Spectrum PA6 Low Warp CF15S has a higher HDT thermal resistance of 180°C (0.45MPa), compared to the unfilled version. The fibre content reduces the shrinkage, which is common or most high-temperature materials, making the printing process much easier and giving prints an aesthetically pleasing “carbon-like” look.
Spectrum PA6 Low Warp CF15S is the best choice for printing functional models that require high rigidity and continuous high-temperature and chemical resistance. It can easily be used in the automotive, aerospace and modelling industries.
