Ensuring maximum quality control of raw materials is one of the most basic tenets of product manufacturing in the 3d printing industry. West Sound Solutions has always been partnering with Industry-leading suppliers. We use top-level materials, like:
Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG)
PTEG is a very tough, durable and easy to use material. The strength of PETG makes it the material of choice for food packaging. Its natural chemical non-reactivity makes it invaluable in medical applications and is used for orthopedic and prosthetic devices and more.
Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate (ASA)
ASA is a production-grade thermoplastic that can be combined with FDM technology to achieve perfect performance. ASA can build durable prototypes for fitting, shape and functional testing, or make practical end-use parts for outdoor use. Ranging from electrical equipment housings and brackets to sporting goods and car prototypes, ASA materials can make your designs more advantageous.
NylonX Carbon Fiber
NylonX is an engineering grade nylon filament which is blended with chopped carbon fibers (approximately 20% by weight), creating a high-strength filament capable of printing tough, shatter-resistant, functional parts. With the capable of replacing many CNC parts.
Polylactic acid (PLA)
PLA is used for low-cost, non-functional prototyping. Offers greater detail than ABS, but is more brittle. Unsuitable for high temperature applications.
