Renewing the textured PEI sheet’s adhesion is the solution you didn’t know you needed. If your 3D prints are no longer sticking and you thought you had to replace the build plate, this guide shows you how to restore the original surface for perfect adhesion—while saving money.
A comprehensive guide to Stampatreddi’s Carbon-Fiber-Reinforced PC-PBT filament. The article examines its outstanding mechanical and thermal properties—such as a tensile strength of 125 MPa and an HDT of 201 °C—drawing on the product’s technical datasheet. Industrial use cases are showcased, from metal replacement to the production of jigs and fixtures, and detailed printing parameters are provided to ensure optimal results. The goal is to position the material as a premium, Made-in-Italy solution for demanding professional applications.
Additive manufacturing is challenging the brass-bushing status quo. Thanks to self-lubricating technical polymers such as PETG-PTFE, aramid-fiber-reinforced PA12, and carbon-filled composites, FDM 3D printing now offers a strategic route to lightweight, high-performance, custom bushings and plain bearings that require zero maintenance. The article examines—supported by hard data—the most innovative materials, guiding designers and engineers toward the optimal choice for replacing traditional metals, with a focus on prototyping, short-run production, and high-performance applications.
In the world of 3D printing, choosing the right filament can make the difference between a mediocre project and one of the highest quality. Among the most advanced options available today, the filamento PC-PBT stands out for its exceptional mechanical…
