  • Black PLA 3D printing plastic material for additive manufacturing — high-quality filament for prototyping and functional 3D printed components.

    PLA

    Process: FDM

    Durability, Biodegradable, RichColors, Economical

    PLA is a high-quality, high-performance, and cost-effective 3D printing material, offering excellent layer adhesion and impact resistance, resulting in durable and long-lasting prints. The base series comes in up to 30 colors, ensuring uniform color consistency and stable printing quality. PLA is made from renewable plant-based resources, eco-friendly, non-toxic, and biodegradable. It is reliable, easy to use, and provides high cost-performance with a wide range of colors, making it an ideal choice for home, education, and industrial printing.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Aluminum

    Process: SLM

    HighStrength, CorrosionResistant, Lightweight

    3D printed aluminum alloys, represented by AlSi10Mg and other aluminum-silicon-magnesium alloys, combine lightweight characteristics with excellent mechanical properties. They offer an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio, good corrosion resistance, and thermal conductivity, and demonstrate excellent fatigue and fracture resistance after heat treatment. The material is easy to form, weld, and machine, making it ideal for aerospace, automotive, and tooling applications where lightweight design and structural complexity are critical. Finished parts are typically shot-peened for surface treatment. If you require any other post-processing, please inform our customer service clearly.
    Disadvantages: Poor heat resistance (maximum 120°C); surface roughness around Ra10, with slight pits and visible layer texture.
