Figure 4 F3 Orange new plastic material from 3D Systems

FIGURE 4 F3 ORANGE DELIVERS HIGH RESOLUTION, FOR RAPID PROTOTYPE PARTS.

3D Systems have released a new materials – the Figure 4 F3 Orange is a prototyping plastic material specifically engineered for Figure 4, offering a cost-effective solution for producing high-quality parts with excellent mechanical stability. It is a rigid, general-purpose material suitable for a wide range of applications, including form, fit, and functional testing, as well as the fabrication of fine-detail components, jigs, fixtures, and assemblies.

With fast print speeds and high-resolution colour output, it delivers superior visual detail and smooth surface finishes, making it an ideal choice for efficient and accurate prototyping across a wide range of use cases.

Applications:

  • Form, fit and function prototypes
  • General purpose prototyping
  • Master patterns for RTV/silicone moulding
  • Fine detail parts, jigs & fixtures, assemblies

Benefits:

  • Rigid general purpose material for prototyping
  • Properties ideally suited to form, fit and functional testing
  • Colour helps to draw attention to parts for design review and makes parts easily identifiable in RTV mould creation
  • Print speeds up to 34mm/hr

Features:

  • Capability to build in 100um or 150um layer thickness
  • Excellent water resistance
  • HDT gives stability at higher temperatures

Figure 4 F3 – MATERIAL PROPERTIES

The full suite of mechanical properties is given per ASTM and ISO standards where applicable. In addition, properties such as flammability, dielectric properties, and 24 hour water absorption are provided. This allows for better understanding of the material capability to aid in design decisions for the material. All parts are conditioned per ASTM recommended standards for a minimum of 40 hours at 23 °C, 50% RH. Solid material properties reported were printed along X-axis.
