Nylon PA12 (series)
PA12 for series production is a technical polyamide used in SLS 3D printing, specifically designed for small to medium production runs. It combines excellent mechanical strength, good dimensional stability, and high durability, making it a reliable alternative to injection molding for flexible and cost-effective production. Its slightly granular matte finish remains consistent, allowing for the production of functional, ready-to-use parts.

Nylon PA12 (series) is a strong, lightweight and durable technical polyamide for SLS functional parts.
PA12 for series production is a thermoplastic material from the polyamide family, widely used in additive manufacturing via the SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) process. It is particularly valued for the production of small and medium-sized batches of parts, as it allows for the manufacture of directly functional components without the need for expensive tooling, unlike injection molding.
This material offers an excellent balance between mechanical strength, rigidity, and slight flexibility, while maintaining good dimensional stability over time. It is highly resistant to impact, wear, and many chemicals, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments. PA12 for series production is often used to reduce lead times and enable on-demand manufacturing, while ensuring consistent part quality. Its matte, slightly granular surface remains uniform across all produced parts, making it an ideal solution for technical and functional production.
