Modulus of Elasticity - 195 KSI
Advanced Laser Material’s FR-106 is a polyamide composite specifically engineered for producing parts with excellent fire retardancy while maintaining superior mechanical properties. Parts manufactured from the FR-106 material exhibit high toughness and impact resistance. FR-106 parts can be manufactured to very low thicknesses, as low as 0.030”, without compromising fire retardancy and toughness. This enables engineers and designers to decrease wall thicknesses, saving space and weight in their products. Even at these very low thicknesses, FR-106 parts easily pass challenging 60 second vertical burn testing as well as smoke and toxicity tests.

For investment cast needs, CastForm PS is ideal for the required wax master. It functions like foundry wax, is easy to process, is very cast friendly, and has low residual ash content (less than 0.02%). It can be used to create alloy parts in a variety of low melt-temperature metals, including aluminum, titanium, magnesium, zinc and others.
Manufacturer : EOS GmbH
Composition : Pre Alloy Stainless Steel
Hardness : 32HRC
EOS Stainless Steel 17-4 is a pre-alloyed stainless steel in fine powder form. Its composition corresponds to US classification 17-4 PH. This kind of steel is characterized by having very good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, especially excellent ductility, and is widely used in a variety of engineering applications. This material is ideal for many part-building applications such as functional metal prototypes, small series products, individualized products or spare parts. Standard processing parameters use full melting of the entire geometry with 20 μm layer thickness, but it is also possible to use skin and core building style to increase the build speed. Using standard parameters the mechanical properties are fairly uniform in all directions. Laser-sintered parts made from EOS Stainless Steel 17-4 can be welded, machined, micro shot-peened, polished and coated if required. Unexposed powder can be reused without restriction or refreshing.
Manufacturer : EOS GmbH
Composition : Pre Alloy Stainless Steel
Hardness : 40HRC
EOS Stainless Steel PH1 is a pre-alloyed stainless steel in fine powder form. Its composition corresponds to US classification 15-5PH and fulfils the requirements of AMS 5659 for Mn, Mo, Ni, Si, C, Cr and Cu. This kind of steel is characterized by having very good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, especially in the precipitation hardened state. This type of steel is widely used in variety of medical, aerospace and other engineering applications requiring high hardness, strength and corrosion resistance.
Manufacturer : EOS GmbH
Composition : Cobalt-Chrome-Molybdenum-Based Superalloy
Hardness : 35HRC
EOS CC MP1 is a cobalt-chromemolybdenum-based superalloy powder which has been especially developed to fulfill the requirements of dental restorations which have to be veneered with dental ceramic material and has been optimized especially for processing on EOSINT M270 systems.
