New 3D Print Material is UV-Stable


Valencia, CA (PRWEB) September 08, 2014

Solid Ideas, a custom manufacturing company delivering prototyping and production solutions through advanced technologies such as additive manufacturing, cast urethanes and injection molding, announces the availability of a new 3D printing material developed by parent business Stratasys. Strong Concepts will now provide a UV-stable material for parts manufactured via Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM). The new material, ASA (arcylonitrile styrene acrylate), offers unique positive aspects to end-use, production top quality and prototype parts which separate it from other FDM thermoplastics.

ASA is chemically and mechanically equivalent to traditional ABS thermoplastics with a single crucial distinction: UV-stability. This stability protects parts from important mechanical property degradation and color fading due to direct and prolonged UV exposure, affording a wide range of outdoor applications to components developed using FDM. ASA moreover provides great strength, flexibility and thermal resistance, as effectively as an appealing surface and matte finish, giving parts an aesthetically pleasing look.

FDM is a procedure well suited to industrial, industrial, aerospace and health-related applications. For more data on the unique material properties of all Strong Concepts’ FDM offerings, visit https://www.solidconcepts.com/materials/fdm-materials/
