Fiberon PET-CF17

Fiberon™ PET-CF17: The High-Speed, High-Strength 3D Printing Filament.

Unleash the power of carbon fiber reinforced PET for your most demanding projects.

Fiberon™ PET-CF17 is a cutting-edge 3D printing filament engineered for those who require superior strength, stiffness, and print quality. This exceptional material combines the dimensional stability and ease of printing of PET with the impressive mechanical properties of carbon fiber.   

Key Features:

• High Modulus: 17% carbon fiber reinforcement provides exceptional rigidity and stiffness, making it ideal for functional prototypes, tooling, and end-use parts.
• Heat Resistance: Withstands high temperatures, making it suitable for applications where heat deflection is a concern.
• Moisture Insensitive: Unlike other high-performance filaments, PET-CF17 is not susceptible to moisture absorption, ensuring consistent printing results and dimensional accuracy.
• High-Speed Printing: Achieve fast printing speeds without sacrificing quality, thanks to its excellent flow properties.
• Superior Surface Finish: Produces parts with a smooth, matte finish that requires minimal post-processing.

• Custom Designs: Bring your intricate and demanding designs to life with exceptional detail and precision.

Printing Tips:

We strongly recommend 120°C, 10h annealing to achieve the best performance of the material. To avoid deformation of the prints during annealing, pleasepay attention to the following:

• Before returning the prints, please confirm that the prints have been printed for more than 24h, or placed in an 80-degree oven for 2h to eliminate the internal stress after printing. 
• During annealing, do not touch the sample with your hands or apply any additional load to the sample.
• During annealing, ensure that the temperature in the oven is uniform and there are no obvious obstructions that cause uneven temperature of the sample.
• For prints with a bridge length of more than 3cm, or a thick layer on the upper part of the bridge; prints with large overhangs or small overhangs; all need toadd supports and anneal in the oven together with the supports.
• For thin-walled areas with a wall thickness of less than 4mm, you can try to add reinforcing ribs or increase the wall thickness to avoid possible annealingdeformation.
• In principle, the sample placement method needs to be consistent with that during printing, and it is best to enter the oven directly together with the baseplate.

Fiberon™ PET-CF17 empowers you to push the boundaries of 3D printing. Its unique combination of strength, speed, and print quality makes it the perfect choice for professionals and hobbyists alike who demand the very best from their materials.
