3D Printed TPU

TPU 3D Printing

TPU 3D Printing creates flexible and durable parts from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) on the 3DSPRO using Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) and Multi Jet Fusion (MJF) methods. 3D printed TPU is widely used in the automotive, medical, consumer goods, and sporting goods industries to produce impact-resistant and resilient parts such as gaskets, seals, protective covers, and custom footwear.

Advantages of TPU 3D Printing

  • Flexibility and Elasticity
  • Excellent Shock Absorption Capabilities
  • Abrasion Resistance
  • Chemical Resistance
  • Fine Surface Finish
  • Recyclability

Available TPU Types

TPU Gray

TPU Gray is compatible with 3DSPRO's MJF 3D printing. MJF 3D printing of TPU involves layering TPU powder and using fusing and detailing agents to create flexible, durable parts with high precision and smooth surface finish.

    Technology

  • 8Mpa

    Tensile Strength

  • > 215%

    Elongation at Break

  • 88-90 Shore A

    Hardness

  • 20 kN/m

    Tear Strength (Propagation, Trouser)

  • 35 kN/m

    Tear Strength (Initiation, Graves)

  • 63%

    Rebound Resilience

    Rubber Deterioration

Recommended Applications
  • Medical Tubing and Seals
  • Custom-fit Splints
  • Gaskets and Seals
  • Bearings
  • Soles and Insoles
  • Protective Gears

TPU White

TPU White is compatible with 3DSPRO's SLS 3D printing. SLS 3D printed TPU uses a laser to sinter powdered TPU material, which is then fused layer by layer to create a flexible and durable part.

Key Mechanical Properties
  • Selective Laser Sintering

    Technology
