Supporting the sector with various technological and 3D printing services, France based Sculpteo added another options into its material range. The company received recognition with new Solid Black Plastic material.
Carrying out rapid prototyping, cloud data and 3D manufacturing services, French Sculpteo 48 expanded its product range with black polyamid that offers advantages to those who wish to work with durable plastic.
The new plastic material is a fine black polyamide powder that is compatible with Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) technology, using the powdered bed fusion process to print solid black objects without the need for dye or paint. The powder itself contains the dark color, which ensures that the 3D printed part will remain solid black throughout its lifetime. The new Solid Black Plastic material is also quite strong, almost reaching the resistance levels that are found in injection plastic parts. The new addition to the material family marks the third plastic powder color offered by Sculpteo, joining the ranks of their white and gray plastic materials.
Objects ordered in Solid Black Plastic are printed using black polyamide powder with Selective Laser Sintering technology. According to Sculpteo it a very strong material that features a resistance close to the one of injection-moulded plastic parts. It is composed of Polyamide 11 (PA 11).
