Ultrafuse support layer

Ultrafuse® Support Layer filament developed to be Support Material for BASF Ultrafuse 316L and 17-4PH. When printed between support and the object, it creates a barrier during sintering and facilitates the separation of support from the metal part. Ultrafuse® Support Layer is not developed to print stand-alone parts and should be printed as a layer attached to the support structures in dual extrusion prints.

Examples of metal functional prototypes

Usable parts to test a concept or process

Metal 3D printed pump impeller

Because the design needs to cater to a range of outlet requirements (power, pressure, outflow rate, temperature, etc.) the blades can end up being difficult to manufacture using other techniques. Creating this part with traditional subtractive manufacturing, for example, would have required a 5-axis CNC machine.
