FDM / MATERIAL PROFILE

PEEK

PEEK belongs to the high-performance plastics. It is particularly attractive when a standard plastic no longer meets the project's requirements.

YOUR POSSIBILITIES

Typical applications

PEEK is an option for demanding functional prototypes, precision adapters and custom-designed components in plant engineering.

YOUR BENEFITS

Why PEEK?

High strength and a combination of thermal and chemical performance open up possibilities for compact technical parts.

Performance profile

Heat deflection temperature (HDT)
up to 140 °C
Tensile strength
up to 100 MPa
Elongation at break
up to 28 %
Tensile modulus
up to 3,720 MPa

Ideas for your application

Mechanical engineering, process development and demanding test setups with custom brackets, spacers or housing elements.

Surface and appearance

A natural light-brown colour with a technical layer structure.

Designing your part to fit

Define load paths and print orientation early. Consistent wall thicknesses and transition radii facilitate repeatable production.

Finishing and post-processing

Precision holes and mating surfaces can be machined to their final dimensions. Heat treatment is specifically coordinated with the final dimensions.
