Carbon-Filled
PLA, PETG AND PP
Applications
Carbon-Filled filaments offer improved strength while maintaining good toughness and an appealing matte look. Ideal for functional-use parts that require high performance, impact strength, and a sleek look.
PLA Pro
Substitute for PETG & ABS

QUESTION AND ANSWERS
FAQ
What if I need a material that is not on your list?
For FDM/FFF materials, we can print it ifthe printing specifications (nozzle temperature, bed temperature, enclosed vsopen chamber, etc) ofthe material match the specifications of equipment that we run then we canprint it. That said, we are only able tobranch out to new materials if the printing job is for production quantities,not one-offs.
How do I get a price on a material not listed on your online pricing tool?
Please email sales@3dprintingtech.com andinclude your STL file(s) along with material(s) and quantity(ies)needed.
Do you print in metal?
We have equipment that can print in metalpowders, and are in the process ofexploring when to bring the processing capability of a metal print fully onlineas a part of our future roadmap. At thistime, we can discuss this capability for large contracts.
