Windform XT

GLASS FILLED POLYAMIDE (NYLON)

Windform XT carbon based composite which has excellent mechanical characteristics, making it ideal for DDM.

Opaque black coloured compound polymide and carbon based material with brilliant reflexes, WindForm™ XT is characterized by stiffness and extremely high UTS, excellent surface finish, resistance to extreme wear and an optimal reproduction of detail.

Although considerably more expensive than other SLS materials, Windform XT can be used in DDM (Direct Digital Manufacturing) Aerospace applications where, repeatability and accuracy are necessary.
