BASF presents new materials for industrial 3D-printing applications




BASF SE said that it is presenting a variety of new materials for 3D printing technologies. Together with Essentium Materials, BASF 3D Printing Solutions is also building up a global distribution network for plastic filaments. Both companies are systematically pooling a substantial part of their industrial filament materials under the name Ultrafuse.
All the filaments in the Ultrafuse series have been developed for industrial applications.
The offer also includes comprehensive expertise in application development and knowhow in fused filament fabrication (FFF). The cross-regional distribution agreement covers several products. They include Ultrafuse Z, a special, extra strong filament based on BASF materials, further developed by Essentium, and offered in combination with Essentium Materials’ processing technology, FlashFuse.
In the course of the year, the cooperation partners intend to launch further, filled and flame-retardant filaments.
“We want to offer our customers all over the world high-quality, high-performance materials for fused filament fabrication printing technology. This enables us to provide a special material for FFF that allows printing components with optimum strength in the z-direction,” said Firat Hizal, marketing & sales manager plastic filaments at BASF 3D Printing Solutions.
