Strong-X use cases
Liqcreate Strong-X is among the strongest photopolymers resins available and perfect for creating injection molding and heavy duty applications.
Jurgen Wiegmann –
Very good for injection moulding! Injection with 280 degrees Celcius gave succes!
George Hinton –
This resin is great for functional engineering models and would highly recommend it.
One tip I have for this resin is that you need thoroughly mix the resin in-between prints
Peter 3D –
Very strong! One of the strongest materials I have seen on the market.
