PET
PET is a polyester for technical and functional printed parts. It combines precise geometries with a smooth, continuous surface appearance.
Typical applications
Precisely fitting housings, covers, brackets and fixtures, as well as functional prototypes.
Why PET?
PET offers smooth surfaces and good layer adhesion. It is an attractive choice for stable everyday parts with clean contours.
Performance profile
- Heat deflection temperature (HDT)
- up to 63 °C
- Tensile strength
- up to 33.4 MPa
- Elongation at break
- up to 2.7 %
- Tensile modulus
- up to 1,933 MPa
Ideas for your application
Device manufacture, fixture construction, product development and technical one-off parts.
Surface and appearance
A smooth plastic appearance with visible print layers.
Designing your part to fit
Consistent walls and rounded load transitions support stable shapes. Layer orientation is planned to suit tensile and bending loads.
Finishing and post-processing
Edges can be deburred and functional surfaces selectively post-processed.
