Suitable for creating 3D objects with a flexible surface such as toys, beads, ornaments, mobile or tablet cases, keychains, stress balls, bookmarks, etc.
Semi-rigid, with a low "soft" to facilitate printing. Slightly rigid to aid extrusion and use
The pieces created with these filaments have a soft and smooth texture. Ideal for shoe templates and prosthetic parts
Compatible with 3D printers with direct or Bowden extruders
100% recyclable material similar to PLA filaments in extrusion temperatures but with greater compression and tensile strength
Wound on reels or transparent plastic spools
Presented vacuum-sealed inside a cardboard case designed for the filament roll
THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND
TPU is prone to absorbing moisture. When this happens, the filament bubbles or "cracks" during printing
To remove moisture, you can use any of the following strategies:
Leave the filament in a closed room with a dehumidifier for 24 hours
Place the filament in an oven at a temperature of 60 °C for 2 hours
STORAGE AND PRESERVATION
Filaments absorb moisture, which can affect printing and finish. Therefore, it is crucial to keep the relative humidity between 10-15%
Moisture degrades the filament, causing extruder jams and altering its physical and mechanical properties
Proper storage and drying process are important to maintain the filament in good condition
The filament should be stored in airtight and preferably vacuum-sealed containers. Zip bags with silica gel beads, vacuum-sealed bags, or vacuum-sealed food containers can be used
There are various techniques to remove moisture, including:
Conventional methods such as drying in a domestic oven or a food dehydrator. At low temperatures and for long periods
Professional methods like filament dryers
The shelf life of a filament can vary depending on various factors; thus, it is important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations regarding drying and storage parameters
