Impact-Resistant & Durable 3D Printing With PETG
PC (Polycarbonate) is one of the strongest thermoplastic polymers for 3D printing. With a combination of extreme impact strength, high heat resistance and chemical resistance, it is a preferred choice for industrial components, production tools and functional prototypes.
Polycarbonate can withstand high temperatures up to 150°C, making it ideal for machine parts, electronic components and automotive solutions. The material's high tensile strength and toughness mean it can withstand heavy loads without cracking or deforming.
PC can be post-processed with CNC milling, bonding and polishing, making it a versatile choice for engineers and product developers who need high-performance and precise components.
