SABIC’s Specialties Business - Solutions for Additive Manufacturing

⭐ PFAM in practice at D-J Engineering. D-J Engineering Inc., a Kansas-based aerospace company, recently welcomed #SABIC experts to their facility for discussions about printing LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ AM compounds on their new large-scale #additivemanufacturing (LSAM) machine from Thermwood Corporation. During the visit, the group witnessed live printing of a stretch form tool. According to a recent LinkedIn post, SABIC’s expertise in pellet-fed additive manufacturing (#PFAM) materials is helping D-J Engineering jumpstart the use of its Thermwood printer. #plastics #ChemistryThatMatters #SABICSpecialties #advancedmanufacturing #additivemanufacturing Link to Post: https://lnkd.in/dwxfgx6j

⭐ IMTS 2024 showcased SABIC #PFAM materials. The power of pellet-fed #additivemanufacturing (PFAM) was on display at IMTS 2024. Attendees made a beeline for the @Thermwood Corporation booth to see live 3D printing demos featuring SABIC’s LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ EC004XXAR1 compound. Our thanks to Thermwood for choosing our materials to print at the show. 📞 For more about SABIC’s specialty LNP THERMOCOMP compounds based on high-heat ULTEM™ resin, reach out to Walter Thompson and David Voorde.

Replace rail parts, pronto! 3D printing offers JIT access to replacement rail parts, avoiding long lead times and costly inventory. To support the #additivemanufacturing of replacement parts, #SABIC supplies specialty thermoplastics with EN45545 R1 HL3 and R27 HL2 compliance. Stop by Booth 255 in Hall 5.1 at InnoTrans 2024 to talk to our experts and examine a front hatch cladding component printed with our #LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ AM compound. #SABICSpecialties #PFAM

#SABIC innovation at InnoTrans! We launched new grades of #LNP™ ELCRES™ FST copolymer resin that meet the toughest regulatory requirements for rail interiors. We’re also showcasing applications that have been 3D printed using our LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ compound. Additive manufacturing is a great way to accelerate part replacement and reduce inventory. Be sure to stop by our exhibit! (Booth 255, Hall 5.1) See a link to the announcement in the comments below. 👇🏼

We’re on track for an amazing #InnoTrans2024. #SABIC dispatched several experts to Berlin, where they’ll introduce our newest high-performance specialty copolymer resins well-suited for #rail interiors. They’re looking forward to speaking with visitors about these materials, which comply with stringent rail safety regulations. Make a stop at our exhibit (Booth 255 in Hall 5.1), which will feature commercial applications, prototypes and demonstration parts using our thermoplastics, including our certified renewable bio-based materials. We hope to see you tomorrow! #plastics #SABICSpecialties #additivemanufacturing #mobility

⭐ Thermwood Corporation kicks off #IMTS TS-2024 with on-site printing of our material! The company is spotlighting its AP 510 3D large scale #additivemanufacturing (LSAM) printer and our LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ EC004XXAR1 compound by printing autoclave tooling on Sep. 9 and Sep. 13. Stop by booth 433103 in West Building Level 3. ℹ To learn about SABIC’s specialty LNP THERMOCOMP compounds, reach out to Walt Thompson and David Voorde via the links in the comments. ❗ And did you hear? Strati – the world’s first 3D printed car – will celebrate its 10th anniversary at IMTS. It was printed with our material! #SABIC #ChemistryThatMatters #SABICSpecialties #PFAM IMTS - International Manufacturing Technology Show #3DPrinting

👶🏼 Our baby is getting a workout! 🏋🏼♂️ Our new JuggerBot PE-44 pellet-fed #additivemanufacturing (#PFAM) printer, that is. After success with several small 3D printed parts, we recently stretched its legs with the printing of two back-to-back 11-hour prints to create sleek transit benches. These were made with our new LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ AM DC0041XA51 material. This carbon fiber-reinforced (up to 20%) PC grade addresses the needs of the rail market and complies with EN45545 R1 HL3 and R27 HL2 for rail interiors. 🚅 The benches were on display in JuggerBot’s booth at RAPID + TCT 2024, where the company also printed parts in real time using both the LNP THERMOCOMP AM DC0041XA51 material and AM AF004XXAR1 compound, a glass fiber-reinforced ABS material. ⭐ Interested in our other materials that are well suited for the rail industry? We will be exhibiting at InnoTrans 2024, September 24-27 in Berlin. Plan to stop by. #SABIC #plastics #ChemistryThatMatters #SABICSpecialties #JuggerBot #advancedmanufacturing #mobility

🚝 Is InnoTrans 2024 on your itinerary this September? ⭐ Stop by the #SABIC Booth 255 in Hall 5.1️ You can learn about our growing portfolio of specialty thermoplastic materials, including #sustainable options, that are well-suited for rail interiors. Plus, you’ll see commercial applications, prototypes and demos. 📞 Reach out to our experts to schedule some one-on-one time at the event. Check the comments for links to their LinkedIn Profiles. Stay tuned for more details about SABIC’s exhibition as the show approaches. #plastics #ChemistryThatMatters #Innotrans #SABICSpecialties

🥂 We’re celebrating the 10th anniversary of the first 3D-printed car. 🚗 Remember the Strati? A decade ago, it was printed live at IMTS 2014. (See the comments for the link) ⭐At this year’s show, Strati will make an appearance. The electric car was printed using our LNP™ THERMOCOMP™ material on a Cincinnati BAAM machine. Since then, we’ve used this printer at our Polymer Processing Development Center to develop pellet-fed #additivemanufacturing (#PFAM) materials. Our PFAM portfolio now has 15 grades! Printing with pellets? Contact #SABIC for help finding the right material.
