FDM 3D printing, while common and versatile, cannot make heat-resistant parts: all thermoplastics will eventually melt. On the other hand, prints made with specialty SLA materials can resist deformation at elevated temperatures. In this heat resistance test, we heated parts printed in different materials on FDM and SLA 3D printers at 450°F (~232°C): FDM: PLA, PA6-CF, PEI 9085 Filaments, printed at 100% infill SLA: Formlabs High Temp Resin, printed on the Form 4 Request a free sample part to see for yourself: https://bit.ly/493eSWH

Ever wonder what drives the design decisions behind our printers? Shane Wighton, the creator of Stuff Made Here and a former Formlabs engineer who led the design of Form 1, Form 2, and Form 3, returns to tear down the next generation with Alec Rudd, the lead engineer behind Form 4. Alec has his work critiqued by his former boss, Shane, as they discuss the thought processes behind seemingly small yet impactful choices, like these solder-on mounts for a PCB they tore out.

This visual 3D-printed model from COSA LTD demonstrates the inner workings of the ear. It supports cochlear implant surgery by allowing a real implant to be inserted, helping restore hearing. The model is printed using Formlabs Clear Resin and Flexible 80A with color pigments for the ear structure. While SLA 3D printing is renowned for its high level of accuracy, it has well-documented limitations when printing a single part in multiple colors. Printing in a single opaque color is straightforward with the Formlabs Color Kit, but the technology for multi-color printing in SLA does not currently exist. Although you can use a service bureau to create multi-color parts, the cost can reach thousands of dollars per part due to material expenses. By employing simple methods, you can integrate a professional and affordable Formlabs printer into your workflow to create detailed, colorful models for your healthcare needs.

There are currently many ways to fabricate polypropylene (PP) parts. The most common is to injection mold, thermoform, blow mold, or form them through other traditional processes involving tooling. Though these workflows are cost-effective for goods produced in high quantities, they present geometric limitations inherent to molding and high upfront costs for tooling, which eliminates the possibility of cost-effective customized or low-volume goods. With an elongation at break of 34% and a flexural modulus of 1327 MPa, Formlabs Polypropylene Powder offers similar properties.
