With the addition of HP Nylon 12 White (PA12 W) to its materials portfolio, American Banknote Corporation (ABCorp), one of the oldest manufacturing service providers in the US, has increased the capabilities of its Center of Excellence located in Boston.
With the advantage of color adjustment after printing, PA12 W is a high-performance, adaptable material made to satisfy the needs of contemporary AM. By combining remarkable tensile strength, tensile modulus, and elongation, PA12 W ensures dependable, long-lasting components by resisting breaking under strain and retaining form under stress.
Its durability and flexibility balance enable components to withstand daily pressures and absorb stress. Because of its special set of qualities, PA12 W may be used to produce durable, flexible, and long-lasting parts and products including wearable electronics, protective housings, and prostheses.
PA12 W's brilliant white color guarantees that painted or dyed finishes look vibrant and true to tone. This trait is particularly advantageous for sectors where color accuracy and visual appeal are crucial, such as consumer products and vehicle design. With a 30% refresh rate and up to 70% powder reusability, PA12 W provides an outstanding environmental benefit in addition to its mechanical qualities.
Situated in ABCorp's high-security, cutting-edge facility, the Additive Manufacturing Center is driven by many HP Jet Fusion 5210 industrial systems, Jet Fusion 580 full-color, and Desktop Metal production metal printers.
