Low melting BASF Polyamide 6-based powder for Laser Sintering

All Ultrasint PA6 grades have in common that they show high modulus, high strength and excellent thermal distortion stability. These properties ensure precise feature control, very good mechanical properties and simple surface reprocessing of 3D printed parts. Ultrasint PA6 LM black is a reinforced Polyamide 6 based material with a balanced mechanical and thermal property profile. Its lower melting temperature compared to other Ultrasint PA6 powders allows for a processing of the material on standard LS equipment. The processing temperature is at 175-185°C. The material is suitable to manufacture functional prototypes and small series parts, e.g. for industrial or automotive applications. It can fulfill the requirements of functional applications regarding high accuracy and mechanical strength as well as a high heat distortion temperature - properties, where existing 3D printing materials often show limitations.

Typical applications are:

• Functional prototypes (i.e. in automotive industries)

• High performance spare parts

• Multi-purpose industrial goods

• Durable and rigid jigs & fixtures
