ASA CF: Outdoor Durability
ASA CF combines ASA’s natural resistance to UV and weathering with the stiffness of carbon fiber. It is particularly suited for technical parts exposed to outdoor environments.
| Standard lead time | About 4 working days, depending on part size, quantity, number of components and finishing degrees. |
|---|---|
| Standard accuracy | ±0.012 in (± 0.3 mm) - may vary depending on geometry. |
| Layer thickness | 0.004 in (0.1 mm) to 0.024 in (0.6 mm) |
| Minimum wall thickness | 0.039 in - 1 mm |
| Maximum build dimensions | Dimensions are unlimited as components may be composed of several sub-parts. The maximum build envelope is 3.28 x 3.28 x 3.28 ft (1000 x 1000 x 1000 mm). |
| Surface structure | Unfinished parts typically have a rough surface but all kinds of fine finishes are possible. FDM/FFF parts can be smoothed, painted and coated. |
