Accura® AMX Rigid Black is an advanced 3D printing material that delivers high-performance, load-bearing components. It is a thermoplastic material engineered to have exceptional surface finish and mechanical properties, making it an ideal choice for manufacturing and engineering applications across various industries.
This material is particularly suitable for producing custom end-use components requiring high strength and durability. It is also an excellent choice for creating large manufacturing aids, jigs, and fixtures and direct production to replace injection molding or soft tooling processes. With Accura® AMX Rigid Black, manufacturers can achieve significant cost savings, as it is a cost-efficient alternative to traditional manufacturing methods.
Moreover, the material’s excellent surface finish and mechanical properties make it well-suited for engineering applications that require high accuracy and precision. This includes applications in the automotive and motorsports industries, where components must meet strict tolerances and withstand high loads and stresses. Additionally, Accura® AMX Rigid Black is also used in the production of consumer goods, where its superior mechanical properties and surface finish can provide significant benefits.
Stereolithography (SLA) is a 3D printing technology that uses photopolymerization to create solid objects. The process involves using a liquid resin that is sensitive to ultraviolet light. When the liquid resin is exposed to a UV laser, it polymerizes into a solid material. The laser cures the part layer by layer to create the desired shape.
After forming the object, it undergoes additional UV and thermal treatments to improve its strength and durability. The resulting parts are highly accurate and have a smooth surface finish.
Stereolithography is a fast and precise process commonly used to create prototypes, master patterns, and large concept models. Its high speed and design flexibility allow rapid iteration during new product development. In addition, stereolithography printers can create complex geometries that would be difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional manufacturing techniques.
