Accura 5530 3D Printing Material
Accura 5530 is a high temperature resistant material available for SLA 3D printing.
What is Accura 5530?
PC-Like Translucent (Advanced High Temp) or Accura 5530 is best used for parts that need strength and stiffness combined with high temperature resistance. With a thermal post-cure, the part’s heat deflection can be improved even further, but at the expense of durability.
Applications
Advanced PC-Like High-Temp Translucent works well for parts that require high temperature resistance such as under-the-hood-automotive or electrical components.
Tolerances
For well-designed parts, tolerances in the X/Y dimension of ±0.002 in. (0.05mm) for the first inch plus ±0.001 in./in., and Z-dimension tolerances of ±0.005 in. (0.127mm) for the first inch plus ±0.001 in./in. (0.001mm/mm), can typically be achieved.
Note that tolerances may change depending on part geometry.
