ALTANA has launched quite a few new resin-based 3D printing supplies finally week’s Formnext occasion.
The corporate’s Cubic Ink portfolio has been bolstered with the addition of the Mildew 3100 VP and the Excessive-Efficiency 4-4800 VP EU supplies.
Cubic Ink 3100 VP has been developed to permit mechanical, easy-to-break silicone moulds to be created on ‘all commercially out there’ DLP, LCD and mSLA printers.

At Formnext, ALTANA additionally introduced its know-how partnership with SK Industriemodell, a supplier of turnkey options for 3D printed device inserts in injection moulding. Collectively, the 2 corporations allow the manufacturing of prototypes and small sequence with unique sequence supplies. Creating reusable or water-breakable moulds, customers can course of high-performance engineering plastics like PA66 GF, PPS or PEEK, opening up the potential for the manufacturing of complicated geometries and multi-component components.
“We’re assembly our declare – ‘we give form to concepts’ – by repeatedly increasing our product portfolio via the focused, additional growth of current supplies and the introduction of recent, application-specific 3D printing options,” stated Dr Max Röttger, Head of Cubic Ink. “At this time, we already provide prospects worldwide with extremely specialised photopolymers, providing most efficiency and are particularly tailor-made to industrial necessities. As an modern know-how chief, Cubic Ink is main the way in which to the following degree of industrial-scale additive manufacturing.”
