FAQs

Our PA12 and PA12GF can be used on EOS models such as P760, P110, and P396.

Yes, parameter adjustments are needed, mainly including melting temperature and heat deflection temperature.

In terms of stiffness, heat resistance, toughness, and elongation, our materials are lower than EOS. The main advantage lies in the price, as well as the mixing ratio of new and used powder, which helps reduce costs.
