Technology & Products

Key Products

TIGITAL 3D-Set thermoset materials for SLS and CBAM 3D printing systems, offering high-temperature resistance, excellent isotropic mechanical properties, and flame-retardant formulations for electrical insulation.

Technological Advantage

Proprietary thermoset formulation achieves 40% higher heat deflection temperature (HDT) than PA12 (150°C vs 110°C) and 99.9% UV stability for outdoor applications, protected by trade secrets and R&D expertise from 50+ years in polymer coatings.

Differentiation

Value Proposition

Reduces part failure rates by 30% compared to standard thermoplastics in outdoor applications, extends product lifespan by 5-10 years with UV resistance, and enables on-demand production of small-batch to serial functional components, cutting tooling costs by up to 70%.

How They Differentiate

Offers thermoset polymers with 3x higher UV resistance than BASF's PA12 (5000+ hours vs 1500 hours in weathering tests) and 20% better chemical resistance than Evonik's materials for automotive fluids, specifically engineered for SLS systems like Farsoon and EOS.
