A high-performance polymer that is not made from petroleum, but is 100 % bio-based derived from castor oil? That is exactly what our PA11 is. But do not let the bio-label fool you: This material is anything but fragile. It easily withstands 100 °C in continuous operation and only begins to melt at an extreme 185 to 190 °C.
However, its biggest ace in the hole is its suppleness. Compared to other polyamides (like our PA12), PA11 is on average noticeably more flexible and yields exactly the right amount under load instead of breaking.
Thanks to its high elasticity, PA11 is the absolute dream material for mounts with snap connections (clips) that have to bend over and over again without wearing out. And, of course, it also plays to its strengths in the print-in-place process: Moving parts or living hinges come out of the printer fully assembled in a single piece.
01 / ENGINEERINGFrom initial sketches and reverse engineering to manufacturing-optimized CAD files (DfAM), assembly consolidation, and seamless transition to injection molding.
02 / POLYMERIndustrial series components and prototypes using powder bed fusion (SLS & MJF), precision resin printing (SLA & DLP), and robust FDM printing (including large-format up to 800 mm).
