Objet material offers rubber-like characteristics

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

Objet Geometries has released the TangoBlackPlus, a material that allows designers and manufacturers to create high-quality parts that closely resemble a broad range of rubber products.

The material allows for a shorter finishing process, offering rubber-like characteristics such as flexibility and durability, elongation at break and high resistance to tear.

TangoBlackPlus builds on the same combination of mechanical properties as in Objet's TangoPlus, FullCure930.

Black in colour, it reduces the time required to create models of such items as products in the automotive market, defence industry and shoes, which designers previously painted black after printing.

It will also aid the development of soft-touch grips, handles, gaskets and seals, among other items.

TangoBlackPlus is supported by the Eden line of 3D printing systems (Eden260V, Eden350, Eden350V, Eden500V) and the Connex multi material range of 3D printers.

Objet is also launching a digital material pack for the Connex family that is based on TangoBlackPlus.
