“This 3D-printed elastomer can withstand over one million bending cycles—20 times that of standard elastic resins.”
Another key feature is its ability to be reused over a long period. Its single-component formulation avoids the common issues of dual-component resins, such as difficult mixing ratios and short shelf life.
Moreover, this resin has been developed as a product series, with different hardness levels tailored to various application scenarios. In particular, the newly introduced natural-color foaming series has attracted significant attention.
The explosive growth of flexible elastomer applications
In recent years, from footwear and sports cushioning to medical supports and robotic artificial muscles, 3D-printed elastomers have become a major application hotspot. As a result, developing high-performance materials has become a key mission for every innovation-driven materials manufacturer.
PEBA materials offer ultra-high resilience, lightweight properties, excellent impact resistance, and strong low-temperature performance. Three material grades have been developed, with hardness adjustable through filling processes, enabling broad coverage across high-toughness and high-elasticity applications such as sports equipment, medical supports, and flexible industrial components.
The TPU filament series includes eight categories, covering a wide range of hardness levels (such as 70A, 80A, 64D, etc.). These materials provide good flexibility and wear resistance, making them suitable for printing flexible structural parts, protective cases, and functional components.
Through proprietary molecular design combined with multiple curing technologies, it overcomes the technical challenges of dual-component materials, such as difficult mixing ratios and short shelf life. Its single-component design eliminates the need for tedious manual weighing and mixing, preventing print failures caused by incorrect ratios. This not only lowers the operational barrier but also significantly improves mass production efficiency and reduces resource waste.
The single-component, multi-color foaming elastomer does not require post-print color spraying once the part is printed, offering great convenience for end-use applications and further expanding potential use cases.
