What your process engineer actually checks
Numbers off the datasheet, not marketing
x45 posts 52 MPa tensile, 12% elongation, 95 MPa flexural and Shore 85 D — BASF Forward AM values by ASTM method. You size parts to real properties, and reprint to the same spec because every lot is traceable.
A materials engineer on the line
Resin selection, wash-and-cure tuning and print troubleshooting from engineers who run LSPc daily. Sub-4h reply, NDA standard.
x45 is BASF Forward AM’s tough photopolymer for Nexa3D LSPc printers — 52 MPa tensile strength, 12% elongation at break and vertical build speeds above 15 cm/hr. The Clear grade adds good out-of-printer optical clarity for functional prototypes and models that get handled, snapped and tested.

Why engineers choose x45
A tough, fast general-purpose resin with numbers behind every claim.
Tough, not brittle
52 MPa tensile strength, 12% elongation at break and 20 J/m notched Izod. Snap-fits and living hinges flex instead of shattering.
Ultrafast on LSPc
Vertical build speeds above 15 cm/hr on XiP, XiP Pro and NXE. Draft mode turns a same-day iteration into an hour, not a shift.
Clear out of the printer
Good optical clarity straight off the plate for flow, lens and fluidics mockups; polishes and coats up for higher transparency.
First-time build success
Nexa3D-validated print styles and Shore 85 D surface hardness give high first-pass yield and crisp features — no parameter development.
How we supply x45
Lot-matched resin, a validated profile and a repeatable finish.
Lot-matched supply
Every cartridge ships from US stock with batch traceability, so a requalified prototype run reprints to the same properties.
Print on LSPc
Load the Nexa3D-validated x45 profile in NexaX and print on XiP, XiP Pro or NXE — no settings to develop.
Wash & cure
Two 2-minute washes in IPA or xClean, then UV post-cure to reach the full 52 MPa / Shore 85 D properties.
