Support Material Enables Faster FDM Prototypes and Production Parts

摘要

Fortus 3D Production Systems, a brand of Stratasys, has announced the availability of SR-30, a soluble support material for use with ABS-M30 and ABS-M30i thermoplastics. The material provides faster dissolve times for the FDM additive fabrication process. Compared with its predecessor SR-20, on average the new SR-30 support material delivers a 69% reduction in dissolve time in an agitation tank, and a 46% dissolve time reduction in an ultrasonic tank. SR-30 is initially compatible with two of the company's additive fabrication machines - the Fortus 360mc and Fortus 400mc (formerly FDM 360mc and FDM 400mc).
