Disclaimers
- Testing according to ASTM D638, ASTM D256, and ASTM D648 using HDT at different loads with a 3D scanner for dimensional accuracy. Testing monitored using statistical process controls.
- HP 3D High Reusability PA 11 powder is made with 100% renewable carbon content derived from castor plants grown without GMOs in arid areas that do not compete with food crops. HP 3D High Reusability PA 11 is made using renewable sources, and may be made together with certain non-renewable sources. A renewable resource is a natural organic resource that can be renewed at the same speed in which it is consumed. Renewable stands for the number of carbon atoms in the chain coming from renewable sources (in this case, castor seeds) according to ASTM D6866.
- Carbon footprint reduction calculated by Arkema.
- Based on internal HP testing, you can achieve zero waste by applying all the fresh materials added to the system to the final printed parts (starting at 85% reusability ratio and 7% packing density). With HP 3D HR PA 12 S, enabled by Arkema, using Balanced print mode, printed part density doubles powder density, optimizing powder usage for continuous printing (requiring a fresh material ratio that’s twice the input packing density).
- Producing functional parts batch after batch. For testing, material is aged in real printing conditions and powder is tracked by generations (worst case for reusability). Parts are then made from each generation and tested for mechanical properties and accuracy.
- For HP 3D High Reusability PP enabled by BASF, based on internal HP testing, May 2020, with tests for mechanical property retention, dimensional stability, and weight change after 7- and 30-day immersion with acids, bases, organic solvents, and aqueous solutions. Due to the material characteristics, extra tuning is required in part design and printing, compared to other rigid HP 3D Printing materials.
- This product is certified for Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 302 for Flammability of Interior Materials–Passenger Cars, Multipurpose Passenger Vehicles, Trucks, and Buses.
- Effective October 1st, 2024, the HP Jet Fusion 4200 3D Printing solution has been discontinued. HP remains committed to your success and will continue to provide support and consumables for this 3D printer until October 1st, 2029.
- Recycling program from Arkema. Available in Europe and US. Check Arkema's website for more information.
- Based on internal testing and public data for solutions on market as of April, 2016. Cost analysis based on: standard solution configuration price, supplies price, and maintenance costs recommended by manufacturer. Cost criteria: printing 1.4 full build chambers of parts per day/5 days per week over 1 year of 30 cm3 parts at 10% packing density on Fast print mode using HP 3D High Reusability PA 12 material, and the powder reusability ratio recommended by manufacturer, and printing under certain build conditions and part geometries.
