Description

Filaflex Foamy Pellet contains a foaming agent that is distributed throughout the material and activates at high temperatures. This agent causes the material to acquire a foamy texture and appearance thanks to dynamic foaming technology, resulting in elastic printed parts that are very lightweight, with low weight and density.

Filaflex Foamy Pellet has an initial Shore hardness of 78A, making it perfect for applications requiring elasticity and fatigue resistance. By adjusting the temperature, flow, and speed, we can achieve different finishes from a single piece printed with Filaflex Foamy Pellet. For example, if we work with a temperature between 245ºC and 250ºC and a flow between 60% and 70%, the material will expand and foam 1.4 to 1.6 times its original volume. However, if we print the material with a higher flow, between 90% and 100%, we will obtain parts with a higher Shore hardness, less elasticity, and without the foamy texture or finish.

Another unique feature of this innovative and versatile material is that we can also adjust the color tone of the printed piece through the printing parameters configuration. The material's tone varies from lighter to darker depending on the settings used. At lower temperatures, we get more intense colors, while at higher temperatures, the foaming agent activates, and we get lighter shades of the same color.

Applications

Filaflex Foamy Pellet is perfect for producing soft and elastic parts that require lightness and low weight, as well as for parts with foamy finishes or variations in density and hardness. Additionally, it is also suitable for parts where a foamy finish or variations in density and hardness in the same piece are desired. This versatile pellet material is ideal for printing:

– Footwear (whole pieces, insoles, soles).

– Bicycle grips and saddles.

– Flexible parts for the automotive industry (bumpers, seals, tires, grippers).

– Knee pads and elbow pads.

– Protective elements and fillers for acoustic absorption.
