  • PA+GF

    Process: SLS or MJF

    Temperature Resistance, Durability, Dimensional Stability

    PA+GF is a polyamide powder material reinforced with glass beads, which significantly improves stiffness and dimensional stability. Compared with unfilled polyamide, this material offers higher heat resistance and demonstrates excellent long-term wear performance. However, due to the addition of glass, its impact strength and tensile strength are relatively lower than those of other nylons.

  • ABS plastic 3D printing material for durable, high-strength, and precise 3D printed parts

    ABS-Like

    Process: FDM or SLA

    Moisture Resistance, Durability

    ABS-like material is a durable and versatile prototyping material suitable for producing both functional and aesthetic parts. Its front surface is smooth, while the side walls and bottom have a matte finish, giving parts an appearance similar to injection-molded components. The material offers good dimensional stability, moisture resistance, and is easy to post-process, making it ideal for rapid prototyping and functional testing.It is usually available in black and white.

  • Inconel 718 metal powder for 3D printing

    Inconel 718

    Process: SLM

    Fatigue Resistant, Temperature Resistance, Corrosion Resistance, Strength

    Inconel 718 is known for its outstanding high-temperature strength, creep resistance, and corrosion resistance. The material can withstand operating temperatures above 700°C while maintaining excellent fatigue and fracture resistance. Through additive manufacturing, GH4169 can produce parts with complex geometries and is widely used in aerospace engines, gas turbines, high-temperature molds, and high-performance industrial components.
    Disadvantages: High cost; complex heat treatment process; thin-walled structures require careful design; default surface roughness Ra10–12.

  • 17-4PH stainless steel 3D printing metal material for additive manufacturing — high-strength, corrosion-resistant metal for precision 3D printed components.

    Stainless Steel 17-4PH

    Process: SLM

    Corrosion Resistance, HighStrength, Wear Resistant

    17-4 PH stainless steel is a precipitation-hardening stainless steel known for its excellent hardness and corrosion resistance. Through vacuum solution heat treatment and H900 aging treatment, printed parts can achieve high strength, high hardness, and good wear resistance. 17-4 PH stainless steel is suitable for manufacturing industrial components that require high strength, corrosion resistance, and complex structures, such as aerospace parts, molds, and high-load machinery.
    Disadvantages: Low elongation (≤16% after heat treatment); weak magnetism after heat treatment.
