This addition brings ARRK Europe’s number of available SLS materials to five. They include DuraForm PA, GFN, HST, as well as EX.
Company head of prototyping Europe, Craig Vickers commented: “We are pleased to be able to offer our clients this new material. It’s something that customers have frequently been asking us for. By using traditional DuraForm Flex powder and then applying our own in-house post impregnation technique, we are now able to offer clients improved flexibility whilst ensuring its integral strength. It’s something we’ve developed over time here at ARRK and are very proud about.”
ARRK’s new process offer clients SLS components with a shore hardness of between 50–60 and is ideal for clients looking to produce parts like hoses, bellows, or with flexible rubber connections.
