Description
Liqcreate Rigid Pro is a rigid black photopolymer resin and can be processed on most open DLP, MSLA and laser based 3D-printers operating at a wavelength of 385-405nm. 3D-printed parts from this material exhibit high strength and rigidity. Liqcreate Rigid Pro only requires UV post-curing with heat to reach its optimal strength. This material has excellent features like: high stiffness, durability, high strength and good temperature resistance which makes it ideal for molding, and industrial applications like pulleys, automotive connectors, covers, brackets, housings and demanding engineering parts.
Technical specifications
3D-printed parts from this material have good thermal resistance, chemical resistance and high strength. Liqcreate Rigid Pro only requires UV post-curing with heat to reach its optimal strength. Thermal performance can be boosted with an optional thermal curing step. Its excellent features like high stiffness, high strength and good temperature resistance makes it ideal for molding, and industrial applications like pulleys, automotive connectors, covers, brackets, housings and demanding engineering parts.
