Hybrid 'Hybrid' is high in strength and toughness, extremely suitable for printing
moving parts since it has an improved temperature resistance. This also
means Hybrid has to be printed on a higher temperature to reach the
right viscosity. It is a high strength engineering plastic which is also food
safe (FDA approved). There are no toxic fumes vaporizing when printing
with hybrid.
Nylon Nylon is a generic designation for a family of synthetic polymers known
generically as aliphatic polyamides. Nylon is one of the most commonly
used polymers. It has self-lubricating properties which can be useful in
for example bearings. The material is very tough and light. It is also able to
withstand higher stress than most other printable plastics making it more
suitable for engineering applications.
Build strategy
In the build strategy you can adjust the following parameters:
• Number of contours: here the user can set the number of contours that will be used to
build up the model.
• Up skin/ Down skin
• Pattern: here the user can set the pattern that will be used for processing the infill area.
There are 4 different patterns that can be used for infill:
• Raft: here the user can activate the generation of a raft structure.
• Skirt: here the user can activate the generation of a
skirt for priming the nozzles.
• Base layer:here the user can set the layer thickness
of the base layer.
