Ultimaker TPU95A is a flexible material and chemical resistant. Printing flexible material is not always easy, but with TPU95A you should have a seamless 3D printing experience. Excellent from printing handles, bumpers or outer shells to reduce damage from wear. How flexible your print is can be influenced via the amount of walls and the type of infill used. Curious? Ask us below what you are trying to achieve!

    We use this quite a lot, both in Blue and Red.

     

    Not very often do we print pure TPU parts, but we infuse it with PC and PET-G, here are a few pics:

     

    PET-G with TPU:

    PC and TPU:  (top item PEG-G + TPU bottom part PC + TPU)

     

    We have found that it bounds slightly better with PC ( although PC is limited to AA0.8mm nozzle...)

    Hi @Carbon, thank you for your response! I'm very happy to see you happily and productively using TPU. Would you mind elaborating what the function is of TPU in your shown examples? Does it protect against impact or wear? Did you need to make a few versions to learn the proper density coming from the infill pattern?

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
