SLS Materials
Nylon 12 CF
Carbon fibre reinforced material for high-performance parts
The Nylon 12 CF It is a reinforced polyamide with carbon fibre offering high rigidity, excellent mechanical strength, and great dimensional stability. At Additium3D we use it for manufacture high-performance functional parts and industrial components via SLS 3D printing.
Maximum rigidity, strength and stability for demanding industrial applications
Nylon 12 CF is a composite material that blends Nylon 12 with carbon fibres.
The Nylon 12 CF It is a carbon fibre-reinforced polyamide PA12 that combines the strength and durability of Nylon 12 with increased structural rigidity.
This material is specially designed for applications where parts must withstand high mechanical stresses while maintaining low weight and high dimensional stability.
Manufactured using technology SLS (Selective Laser Sintering), allows for the production of complex geometries with excellent mechanical properties and a high level of precision.
LET'S TALK
Key properties of Nylon 12 CF
High mechanical strength
The incorporation of carbon fibre provides greater stiffness and reduces the deformation of parts under load.
Excellent mechanical strength
It is capable of withstanding continuous stress and demanding applications while maintaining its mechanical properties.
High dimensional stability
The parts retain their dimensions even under intensive working conditions.
Excellent strength-to-weight ratio
It allows the manufacture of lightweight components without sacrificing high structural strength.
Low deformation
Reduces bending and warping in large or constantly loaded parts.
Ideal for functional parts
It is especially indicated for final components requiring high mechanical performance.
