Coat hangers 3D printed with nGen filament

We used nGen filament to print coat hangers in a variety of colors. nGen is a general purpose 3D printing material that is perfectly suited to be used for prints that can be used in real life. These coat hangers were printed on the MassPortal Pharaoh ED in our own print lab.

Eastman Amphora™ 3D polymer

Eastman Amphora™ 3D polymer is a low-odor, styrene-free choice that is uniquely suited for 3D printing applications. With Amphora, items can be created that are more functional, more durable, more efficient, and attractive.

nGen is made with Amphora AM3300 and has good flow properties through the printer nozzle – even at lower temperatures than some other polymers require. These properties make nGen more workable at a wider breadth of temperatures, producing reliable results and resulting in less waste. nGen exhibits advanced overhang ability, excellent looks, and large printing temperature range—empowering large panel of users to create durable and useful items. Learn more about nGen on our special dedicated landing page.

Molecule construction set

We printed a molecule construction set as a demonstrator with our nGen 3D printing filament. nGen is our go-to material for a wide variety of prints we make in the colorFabb print lab. It is a true general purpose filament that can be used on a wide variety of 3D printers. Interested how to print with nGen? Check out this blog: https://learn.colorfabb.com/how-to-print-with-ngen/

Rocket ship printed with nGen filamant

On the Ultimaker forum Joel Mongeon posted his version of the gCreate rocket ship, printed with nGen. In his words:

A spaceship printed and painted for my toddler who loves “wockets”!

This is the gCreate rocket that can be downloaded here: http://www.gcreate.com/#!3d-model—gcreate-rocket/c1k6o

Printed with Colorfabb nGen. I cut off the tip of the rocket and used a hot tool to round it off. I then used a lot (maybe too much) XTC 3D to smooth the layer lines and add strength to the print. Finally used some shiny metallic paint and a layer of shellac to seal the deal.

nGen is a true all-round material suitable for most day to day 3D printing activities. At the core of its reliability is the special chemical make-up of the Eastman Amphora™ AM3300 3D polymer, which results in a good melt stability. From pellet to filament to 3D print, nGen retains its material properties very well, meaning more stable results with less waste of time and material.
