Polycarbonate Filament Description

Stratasys Polycarbonate (PC) is a highly versatile thermoplastic filament widely used in various 3D printing applications. This material is primarily due to its exceptional strength, excellent impact resistance, and ability to withstand high temperatures. This 3D printing filament’s sturdiness, durability, and resilience characterize the end product, making it ideal for parts exposed to high-stress situations or wear and tear. Stratasys polycarbonate filament is available in various colors, including clear, black, and white. It is frequently employed in the aerospace, automotive, and electronics industries to produce protective covers, medical equipment, and components for various machinery.

Finishes for fused filament fabrication printed Polycarbonate Filament.

Fused filament fabrication (FFF) is a popular additive manufacturing process that can produce high-quality parts with various finishing and post-processing options. Standard post-processing techniques for FFF parts include sanding, polishing, and chemical smoothing to improve surface finish and reduce layer visibility. Additional painting, plating, and assembly options enhance the final product. Prototek’s experienced team can guide you through the best post-processing methods to meet your project requirements.
