3D Systems Announces the Availability of a High Speed Material; Accura si 45HC SL Material for the SLA 250 System with Nylon 6:6-Like Properties.VALENCIA, Calif. -- 3D Systems Corporation (Nasdaq:TDSC TDSC Thai Development Support Committee TDSC Time Domain Signal Coding TDSC Test Driver System - Charlie TDSC Time-Domain Spreading Code ), the leading provider of rapid 3-D printing, prototyping and manufacturing solutions, today announced the availability of the Accura(R) si 45HC SL material for all SLA (1) (StereoLithography Apparatus) See 3D printing. (2) (Service Level Agreement) A contract between the provider and the user that specifies the level of service expected during its term. (R) 250 systems. The si 45HC material provides build speeds that are significantly faster than competitive resins resins, n.pl complex, insoluble, sticky substances secreted by plants. Used as astringents, antimicrobials, and antiinflammatories, and are burned as incense. Can cause oral ulcers and epidermal irritations. available on the market for the legacy system. Designed with nylon nylon, synthetic thermoplastic material characterized by strength, elasticity, resistance to abrasion and chemicals, low moisture absorbency, and capacity to be permanently set by heat. After 10 years of research E. I. 6:6-like properties, si 45HC material offers outstanding build speed and moisture resistance. In addition, parts made from si 45HC can withstand aggressive in-use high-temperature environments of over 100 degrees C (212 degrees F). This results in a material that is ideal for applications such as; temperature resistant parts and components, high stiffness thin-wall enclosures, moisture resistant parts, investment casting investment casting Precision casting for forming metal shapes with minutely precise details. Casting bronze or precious metals typically involves several steps, including forming a mold around the sculptured form; detaching the mold (in two or more sections); coating its patterns and rigid snap-fit assemblies. "The new Accura si 45HC SL material is designed specifically for one of our early stereolithography The first 3D printing technology, which was pioneered by Chuck Hull of 3D Systems. See 3D printing. systems, our SLA 250 system. Introduced to the market in 1988, the SLA 250 system is a widely used favorite work-horse among our long-time customer base. We are delighted to continue to support our long-term Long-term Three or more years. In the context of accounting, more than 1 year. long-term 1.

Compare short-term. customers, providing them with a new stereolithography material that improves their bottom line by making models and parts faster," said Abe Reichental, 3D Systems' president and chief executive officer. "The si 45HC was developed by working closely with our customer base to determine the best attributes and features required in a material for their applications. The result is a material that enables better utilization of the SLA 250 system through a combination of speed and functionality," continued Reichental. "The si 45HC material combines high speed with excellent thermal and moisture resistance resulting in a material ideally suited for producing functional models and parts for in-use environmental testing."
