At the end of September last year, our company launched an innovative material on the world market: CERAMO-TEX - with unique properties.

In short, this is a material with programmable foaming during printing. By varying the speed, flow and temperature of printing, it was possible to obtain different density of the polymer in a printout with 100% filling, from 0.9 to 0.55g / cm3.

Also of great interest was the decorative effect obtained on the surface of the final product - a texture that depends on the speed and temperature of printing the outer perimeter of the product.

Physical characteristics:

- The achievable density of the polymer in the printout is reduced to 0.55g / cm3!

- minimum density and maximum foaming are consistently achievable at print speeds up to 100mm / s!

- polymer density and surface texture vary exclusively by printing temperature (220-270C) and polymer flow (feed).

- the bar is  fracture resistant - the minimum bending radius is up to 25mm.

New chemical characteristics:

- the material is stably dissolved and treated with acetone.

- the material is completely immune to the exposure to limonene (Limonene-D). That is, cheap limonene-soluble dual-extruder support materials are now available.

The size of the text cube is 40x40x40mm.

Physical characteristics:

- temperature stability of the polymer and the range of available printing temperatures: 205-270C you can select the temperature for a fairly wide range of printing speeds, object sizes and geometric characteristics. The material does not boil at temperatures up to 270C

- the bar has become more resistant to fracture - the minimum bending radius is up to 20mm.

Chemical characteristics:

- the material can be dissolved and treated with acetone, like normal ABS.

- the material is completely immune to the action of limonene (Limonene-D). That is, cheap limonene-soluble dual-extruder support materials are now available.

Their main advantages

- high hardness

- heat resistance up to 102C

- pliability to mechanical processing

- food grade polymers (all components are FDA approved for contact with hot food)

- textured print surface (for CERAMO-TEX) and properties imitating ceramics (for CERAMO)

We wish you all creative and technical success!
