Silicone 3D Printing

[gavbrum]

I’ll have a look for a suitable strap and send it across to you.

Ok you can upload it to Saen’s Hub . 3Dhub will scan the file first and then i get te file and then i will see what i can do

You can find Saen’s Hub by entering Koog aan de Zaan as city

Dear Gavbrum, have you considered FilaFlex filament? This is similar to NinjaFlex and has similar properties to silicone in that it is tough and flexible. We have stocks of the filament and by late next week we will have a printer specifically designed to print it. When we ordered our flexible filament stock, they sent us a watch printed in the material, so I can even send you a photo of it.

Please send the photo. gavin@tyko.co.uk Or post a pic up here.

Hello

if that material “Fila flex” is safe as dog or kids toy?

[3FormUK]

Yes. It has a certificate for use in medical situations, visit the Recreus web site to download it. The material seems really tough and the bond between layers is strong, so I would expect it to be good for these applications. The problem with the material is that it is difficult to print using a standard print head, that is why we have invested in a custom made machine designed to use it.

There’s always these guys: http://3dprintingindustry.com/2014/10/15/picsima-3d-print-silicones-without-support-structures/

[gavbrum]

Yeah I’ve seen these guys. Looks like pretty good results.

@picsima: Hi, I too require a part to be printed in silicone. Checked out your website and was wondering what is the maximum surface finish you can achieve because as far as I have heard 3D printing silicone might not have a very smooth surface finish.

GavBrum,

Because we are very well versed in silicones, we DO have silicone material that we HAVE 3D printed. We can do prototypes, or 100s of units. Let me know if you are interested in having us do your product.

@DSUDING: Hi,

I am working on a project that requires 3D printing of a part in silicone. Is it possible to view samples of your products?

[DSUDING]

Vishanth,

We can email you some pictures. What email address?

@dSuding: Can you email them to vishanth001@e.ntu.edu.sg?

hi - what is your website so i can see your silicones (and rubber?) printed?

[Elena_Elena]

Lazarus3d.com is most likely the place to go to

[jasonboyd001]

Prototech.com - uses 3d printed molds for watch bands made from silicone. I have seen several parts that look fantastic

Could you email me please.
