Stratasys Ltd. announces four new P3 materials including Somos WeatherX 100 and the development of its Kimya PC-FR and FDM HIPS validated materials for the F900.
Stratasys is offering four new performance-grade materials for Origin One printers:
Stratasys also introduces automatic support generation functionality to its GrabCAD Print software for Origin One. Users can choose from predefined support profiles based on material properties—rigid, tough, or elastomeric—or customize for workflow control.
For continued growth of the Stratasys F900, Stratasys has two new materials for the F900, and eight new colors for ULTEM, PC and PC-ABS. The expanded material line creates value on the platform by expanding Stratasys’ application space.
Kimya PC-FR: A flame-resistant polycarbonate material that is specifically designed for end-use parts.
FDM HIPS: A high-impact polystyrene-based material for low requirements applications.
The new OpenAM software, including an open material license, is also now available for the F900.
“Expanding our portfolio of validated materials offers our customers the additional choices needed to address a broader range of applications to produce at scale,” says Stratasys CEO Dr. Yoav Zeif. “As additive manufacturing continues to enjoy growth, there is no limit to what is possible with 3D printing, and we are pleased to be able to deliver on this promise to our customers.”
*These materials will become commercially available late 2023 / early 2024.
