Printing behaviour

HARDFLEX Ultra prints at 235 °C on a build plate heated to 95 °C. Its Shore 83D hardness places it in the category of rigid TPUs, closer to a technical thermoplastic than a soft elastomer: extrusion is more stable than with Shore A TPUs, which simplifies passage through the melt chamber and allows use on a broader range of extruders.

The requirement for a heavily heated build plate does however mean the machine must be equipped with a high-temperature heated bed and, preferably, a stabilised enclosure to limit thermal differentials during printing of large parts.

Applications

A proven production-oriented formulation, this rigid TPU combines mechanical strength and thermal resistance for functional parts subject to repeated constraints: hard damping elements, technical stops, wear parts, structural supports, jigs, and industrial components requiring a combination of impact resistance and rigidity. It complements a range of Shore A flexible materials by providing significantly greater hardness, intermediate between standard TPUs and engineering thermoplastics.

About Volumic

Origine : France

Le fabricant niçois d'imprimantes 3D Made in France

Membre de la French Fab, Volumic conçoit et fabrique ses imprimantes 3D FDM dans ses ateliers de Nice, sur la Côte d'Azur. La marque s'est imposée comme une référence professionnelle grâce à sa gamme Stream (20, 30, Pro MK3, Ultra) et ses modèles grand format EXO (42+, 65+), reconnus pour leur châssis en aluminium de qualité aéronautique, leur précision allant jusqu'à 6 microns sur l'axe Z et leur fiabilité éprouvée. Compatibles avec la quasi-totalité des filaments du marché grâce à des extrudeurs montant jusqu'à 400°C, ces machines s'adressent aux secteurs de l'ingénierie, de la fabrication et du prototypage.

Filaments Ultra, consommables et pièces détachées

Volumic développe également sa propre gamme de filaments Ultra, dont une variante MEDICAL Ultra (base ABS) biocompatible certifiée USP Classe VI. La conception française garantit un approvisionnement en pièces détachées, accessoires et consommables, avec un service après-vente directement assuré dans ses ateliers niçois.
