Simulate Functional Metal Parts with FDM Nylon 12CF 3D Printing Material

The first of a new Stratasys material category in ‘reinforced composites,’ FDM Nylon 12CF is a high performance composite material providing the highest tensile strength, flexural strength and best stiffness-to-weight ratio of any FDM thermoplastic in the Stratasys offering. It is made from Nylon 12 resin and 35% (by weight) chopped carbon fibers. It can be used to effectively simulate composite Nylon and metal in prototyping, tooling and end-use parts. FDM Nylon 12CF is available on the Fortus 450mc™ 3D Production System and is compatible with SR-110™ support material.
