3D PRINT WITH FLEXIBLE FILAMENTS:

EXPLORE APPLICATIONS WITH THE ULTRA RESISTANT TPU (Thermoplastic polyurethane)

TPU (Thermoplastic polyurethane), one of the most popular 3D printing filaments, is known for its flexibility, compressibility, and resistance to impact, abrasion, and outdoor forces. It is commonly used for parts that are tough yet flexible – bumpers, fenders, belts, and protective coverings. 
 
While the filament has rightfully earned its place with its application range, it is notorious for being difficult to print. Stringing, clogging, and blobbing are some of its biggest enemies. Compared to stiffer filaments, printing with soft, bendable materials is often tricky, and not all 3D printers handle them well.  
 
In this webinar, Fernando Fortunato, CTO of NewsFender EU and owner of a fleet of BigRep 3D printers, navigates applications with this versatile material. NewsFender EU manufactures customized eco-friendly boat fenders specifically designed for shipyards, boat builders, military patrol boats, Coast Guard patrol boats, and rescue boats.
