Custom Filaments

As a specialist in quality 3D printing filaments we see the need for more diverse filaments every day. Of course we have our expanding portfolio of readily available materials (like PLA, co-polyesters and Specials), as well as our Color on Demand service. With our recently launched colorFabb Labs we offer even more special filaments, often suitable for specific applications. Besides these colorFabb branded filaments, we also develop and produce custom filaments specifically tailored to meet our customers’ needs.

 

 

 

These days custom filaments is one of our strengths and core competences at colorFabb.

FFF 3D printing is slowly maturing and companies are actively looking for material solutions for their applications.

A perfect example of custom material development is our effort with Witcom Engineering Plastics. With Witcom we developed a filament with similar Radar Absorbing properties as the granulate material used for injection molding.

 

 

 

Witcom Engineering Plastics, located at Etten-Leur, the Netherlands, specialises in the development and manufacture of technically high performing polymer compounds for automotive, transportation, aviation, electrical / electronics, industrial, medical and consumer product applications.

PLA-3DRAM allows OEMs not only to test form and fit, but also the actual radar absorbing performance of their physical design. Often radar units are mounted in brackets which need to be designed in such a way that the radar units have the least amount of ghosting. This is application is being used in, for instance, the automotive industry.

This material is exclusively made for Witcom Engineering Plastics and not available at colorFabb. Interested in this specific material, please contact Witcom Engineering Plastics.

 

For businesses we offer the chance to have a custom filament being developed, either as a co-branded or a private label filament. Interested? Contact us here or email directly to sales@colorfabb.com so we can discuss the possibilities with you.
