3D Systems added four Figure 4 high-performance, production-capable resins designed for batch-run, end-use part manufacturing, and prototyping applications.

Figure 4 High Temp 150C FR Black, Figure 4 Tough 65C Black, Figure 4 Tough 60C White, and Figure 4 Rigid Gray feature long-term mechanical performance and stability in indoor and outdoor environments and are suitable for applications in consumer electronics, automotive and motorsports, healthcare, industrial goods, and aerospace and defense. Feature similar out-of-printer appearance to injection-molded plastics, with smooth, glossy surfaces and no visible build lines. 3D Sprint software enables high-density part stacking and new strut support structures. Figure 4 High Temp 150C FR Black is rigid, halogen-free, fire-retardant resin ideal for production plastic parts for aerospace and defense, automotive and motorsports, and consumer electronics applications. Is UL94 V0 rated at 2mm or 3mm thickness for electrical components and PCB covers and housings. Is compliant with US Federal Aviation Regulation 25.853 and FAR Part 23.853 at 3mm thickness; can be used to produce rigid covers, panels, housings, and small in-cabin parts for transport and commuter aircraft. Figure 4 Tough 65C Black has high elongation at yield (6.6%), which delivers better snaps and clips. Is ideal for applications such as brackets, covers, snap fits, structural and load-bearing parts, and custom fasteners. Delivers long-term indoor and outdoor stability – for eight years and one-and-a-half years, respectively – positioning it for applications such as automotive and consumer goods parts. Is biocompatible-capable per ISO 10993-5 and is UL94 HB rated for flammability. Figure 4 Tough 60C White is engineered to address mechanical-load bearing applications such as small snap-fits, brackets, handles and fasteners in consumer products, wearable devices, and general use parts that require details and accuracy. Is biocompatible-capable per ISO 10993-5 and ISO 10993-10 and can be sterilized using common methods, while maintaining mechanical properties, color, cytotoxicity, and dimensional stability. Is ideal to produce tools, handles, and small plastic parts designed for medical uses. Figure 4 Rigid Gray demonstrates capabilities for functional prototyping and end-use part production; has excellent print quality, long-term indoor and outdoor mechanical performance and environmental stability. Is ideal for static rigid housing and covers, casings, panels, and trim. Gray color is helpful for visualization of text, texture, and fine details for functional prototyping and makes this material suitable for secondary processes such as painting and metal plating.
