Medical implant-grade PEEK pure material: It has excellent mechanical properties such as stiffness, toughness and durability, and its modulus is close to that of natural cortical bone. It has passed all the test requirements of YYT0660-2008 and obtained a third-party verification report.
PEEK printing filaments: High-toughness, high-strength PEEK filaments are formed through a continuous extrusion process, exhibiting good dimensional stability and capable of being continuously extruded for thousands of meters without breaking. They are widely used in industries such as 3D printing.
PEEK 3D printing products possess characteristics such as high temperature resistance and chemical resistance, and are also easy to process. They are particularly suitable for the rapid prototyping of demanding industrial-grade plastic parts. Due to their high mechanical strength, hydrolysis resistance, and good flame retardancy, they are especially suitable for producing lightweight, high-performance 3D printed parts for the aerospace, automotive, and oil and gas industries.
It is easy to process, can be stably printed in a 3D printer, has good anti-warping properties, can be designed and customized according to patient needs, is resistant to X-ray radiation, and has excellent wave transmission performance compared with metal.
3D printing
3D printing is essentially a layer-by-layer additive manufacturing concept. Mainstream 3D printing is mainly concentrated in the manufacturing industry, with individual manufacturing scale ranging from millimeters to 10 meters.
Printing filaments extruded from PEEK (polyether ether ketone), a high-temperature material, are compatible with 3D printing processes and are hailed by engineers as a metal alternative for industrial 3D printing applications, particularly industrial plastic parts.
PEEK 3D Printed Products
PEEK filaments are suitable for 3D printers and exhibit high mechanical strength, hydrolysis resistance, and flame retardancy in design performance. The selection of PEEK filaments broadens the application scope of 3D printing.
Parts printed with PEEK material can withstand high temperatures of up to 260 degrees Celsius for extended periods and can also resist short-term effects of up to 300 degrees Celsius. These properties make this special engineering plastic PEEK a potential alternative to metal parts in these fields.
In the industrial field, parts printed using PEEK filaments are 80% lighter and 30% tougher than parts made of stainless steel. Compared with ordinary metals, they also exhibit superior fatigue resistance, significant wear resistance, and low sliding friction. These properties make the filaments a suitable choice for manufacturing lightweight structural components.
