  • 3D4Makers PEI ULTEM™ 1010

    Polyether Imide (PEI) Ultem 1010 is an amorphous thermoplastic with a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 217 °C. It has a continuous operating temperature of up to 170 °C. This inherently flame retardant plastic has UL94 V0 and 5VA ratings. It is dark amber & slightly translucent. We source our ultra performance filaments very carefully, as they are expensive, & we want you to have the best experience with them. We selected 3D4Makers ultra Filament that's Made in Netherlands to tight tolerances & offers easier printability than other ultra performance filaments on the market. Good printability leads to excellent layer adhesion & this greatly improves the impact resistance, strength & durability of this PEI 1010 filament over that of others. Their products are consistent batch to batch, unlike some others we have tested. Our ultra Performance 3D Printing filaments are ready to ship right here in NZ. PEI Ultem attributes include:
    • Inherent flame resistance with low smoke evolution and low smoke toxicity
    • Long-term hydrolytic stability
    • Excellent dimensional stability (low creep sensitivity and low, uniform coefficient of thermal expansion) and highly reproducible part-to-part dimensions
    • Exceptional strength and modulus, even at elevated temperatures
    • Good resistance to a broad range of chemicals, such as automotive fluids, fully halogenated hydrocarbons, alcohols, and aqueous solutions
    • Stable dielectric constant and dissipation factor over a wide range of temperatures and frequencies
    We ship NZ wide & ship to Australia every day, & can send world wide by arrangement. Full specs below
  • The CreatBot PEEK-300 is an ultra performance 3D printer specially optimised to work with ultra high performance advanced materials such as PEEK, PEKK, PEI (Ultem tm), etc polymers in a dedicated no-compromise environment. It is designed for high reliability and industrail performance at a price that is substantially cheaper than industrial additive manufacturing systems. 3D Print any advanced polymer filaments without any warping or shrinkage issues to deal with regardless of size. And thanks to the Patented DAS system, you won't need to anneal your prototpyes, saving you several hours & resources in post-print processing. Some example industry specific use cases :
    • Engine manifolds can be 3d printed using PEI 1010, which handles 200 deg C operating temp & mounted directly on the engine.
    • Injection moulding tooling can be directly printed & used for an average of 200 cycles, to create small batch production runs.
    • FDA approved parts can be 3d printed using PEI 9085 to aid substantial weight reduction on aircraft, with a weight to strength ratio that is greater than aluminum, with all the necessary flame retardant properties.
    • Hip, Knee & Jaw replacements for interbody transplants can be 3d printed using PEEK instead of titanium to aid MRI friendly post operative assessment & any future surgical planning.
    • Medical tools can be 3d printed using PPSF / PPSU & can survive commercial autoclave sterlisation exceeding 230 deg C & be exposed to bodily fluids as it is rated for use in biodiverse aqueus conditions.
    Ultra performance Polymers & Composites are the future in additive manufacturing of production parts on demand. Special Features found only on the Creatbot PEEK 300:
    • Water cooled triple heat isolation heads
    • Patented 400C Direct Annealing Air system.
