Stratasys FDM Overview

FDM Overview

FDM Machine/Material Reference

FDM Machine and Material Matrix

Available Materials:

ABS-M30

ABS-M30 is 25-75% stronger than the standard ABS material and provides realistic functional test results along with smoother parts with finer feature details.

ABS-M30i

ABS-M30i is a bio-compatible material that can be gamma or EtO sterilized and complies with ISO 10993 and USP Class VI. This material can be used for products that come in contact with skin, food and medications.

ABS-ESD7

ABS-ESD7 is an ABS thermoplastic with static dissipative properties for applications where a static charge can damage products, impair their performance or cause an explosion in a flammable environment.

ASA

ASA is an all-purpose prototyping material with exceptional UV stability, especially suited in production parts for outdoor commercial and infrastructure use. ASA won’t degrade with prolonged outdoor use and is accurate, stable, and very durable.

Polylactic Acid (PLA)

A stiff thermoplastic made from renewable resources, PLA is perfect for quick concept verification at a low cost. It works with fast-draft mode on the Stratasys F123 series and comes in 11 color options. PLA has a low melting point, requiring less heat and power.

PC-ABS

This production-grade thermoplastic offers both the superior strength and heat resistance of PC and the flexibility of ABS. Commonly used in the automotive, electronics, and telecommunication industries.
