Digital material pack enables model creation

An Objet Geometries Europe product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Nov 5, 2009

Objet Geometries has released a digital material pack that allows manufacturers and designers to create parts and models for product-design testing, simulation and validation.

The offering is available exclusively on the Connex350 and Connex500 - 3D printers capable of simultaneously printing multiple materials with different mechanical and physical properties.

The pack provides 3D printing users with 18 materials comprised of combinations of VeroWhite and TangoPlus or TangoBlack Plus, the latest addition to the Tango range.

The materials encompass the full Shore A hardness scale (from 27 to 95), characterising a range of rubber/elastomer-based products.

With these materials, Connex users can print parts, such as wires and cables, grips and handles, plugs and connections, shock absorbers, function buttons, gaskets and seals, among other rubber applications.

The rigid materials simulate the strength and toughness of products made of such standard plastics as PP, LDPE, HDPE, PVC and PS.

Up to 11 different rigid and flexible materials can be combined in a single part in one build.
