PETG : Flexibility and Strength

PETG is a durable material that stands out for its flexibility, strength, chemical resistance, and high-quality raw finish. Unstressed PETG 3D printed parts exhibit significant resistance to diluted aqueous solutions of mineral acids, bases, salts, and soaps, along with aliphatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, and diverse oils.

FDM / FFF TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

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.
