Stratasys TangoBlack FLX973 is used in additive manufacturing or 3D printing under material jetting. It is a rubber-like material that can be used for various applications, particularly those that require flexibility and durability. Tango Black FLX973 is cured by mixing two liquid components that create a flexible material. It has a black color and a matte finish, making it suitable for creating black parts or components that don’t require a glossy appearance. Stratasys TangoBlack FLX973 has a Shore A hardness of 45, making it very flexible, and is ideal for making gaskets, seals, grips, and other products that require softness and elasticity. It can be printed on multi-material 3D printers capable of printing with rubber-like materials and combined with other rigid or flexible materials to create more complex designs.
Material jetting, also known as MJ, polyjet, or binder jetting, is a 3D printing technology that produces models with a smooth surface finish. MJ can use a combination of rigid and rubber-like materials, allowing the creation of objects with varying levels of flexibility and hardness.
One of the main advantages of material jetting is its ability to incorporate multiple materials and colors into a single print. This makes it ideal for designers who require highly detailed and realistic models.
MJ is particularly well-suited for producing complex, flexible models, making it a popular choice in automotive, aerospace, and medical device manufacturing industries.
In summary, material jetting 3D printing offers many benefits, including excellent surface finish, multi-material and multi-color capabilities, and the ability to produce complex, flexible models.
