The first successful mechanical print with @ZPolymersInc Tullomer. It's exceptionally rigid and should be functional (even with the minor crack from not fully clearing through-holes). Still needs more tuning but an effective application of lessons from yesterday.
Not just a 3D printing filament, but a fiber!
At Z-Polymers, we’re redefining possibilities with Tullomer™ Fiber, combining strength & versatility. Watch @joeltelling test its tensile strength vs stainless steel wire!

🔨 Let’s Talk About Failure... in Parts!
No matter how stiff a material is, understanding its failure mode is crucial.
Watch as @joeltelling tests brake levers made from PETG and Tullomerâ„¢ to their failure.

Great article in @All3DP magazine on how TCA portfolio company @ZPolymersInc is lowering tooling costs with its Tullomer 3D printing filament.

🔥 What’s UL94 V0? 🔥
It means a material stops burning within 10 seconds, with no flaming drips.
Tullomerâ„¢ extinguishes fast and chars with no drips of burning material.
Watch as @joeltelling & the Z-Polymers crew turn up the heat!

This was such a fun collab and a great introduction to our Tullomer material. Thanks @joeltelling ✋
Go check out the video and submit your applications to our Tullomer part challenge to win some filament. We want your great ideas!

You probably saw the video from @repkord at @RAPID_Event or you’ve seen @brendonbuilds doing CRAZY prints with it. Now get the science behind it!

It was great having @joeltelling visit Z-Polymers last week. We are excited for people to see the content we produced. Keep a look out, it will be coming out soon.

Doing some more testing with @ZPolymersInc Tullomer 🙂

Printed one of the Gauntl33t glove finger pieces out of @ZPolymersInc Tullomer 🙂. Printed it at 1/4" thick because unlike aluminum it can't bend and risks snapping at 1/8". Probably should print another one to dip coat in alcohol thinned epoxy to mitigate any delamination that could occur over time. I also want to print the same part out of ABS and PLA to test stiffness against 🤔

Time to try printing @ZPolymersInc Tullomer!!! 😃
Z-Polymers will be at the Massachusetts Manufacturing Mash-up hosted by Massachusetts Tech Collaborative.
Come visit our booth to check out some 3D printed parts and live printing of Tullomerâ„¢ at Gillette Stadium on September 25, 2024.

Headed back down to the @Steve_Builds studio this afternoon to implement the @E3DOnline #REVO High Temp upgrade on my @Voron_Design TRIDENT 🔱 and get geared up to truly unlock the potential of @ZPolymersInc TULLOMER!
I think we should probably stream the whole ordeal. Who's in?

I have added a #tullomer profile to the mod0 repository; it is a work-in-progress, proceed with caution.

These #tullomer settings transfer perfectly into @PrusaSlicer without spiral-vase mode
I've learned that the beige color may not be ideal; it sounds like an opaque whiter color is preferable. I'm also starting to better understand the extent of the shear thinning.
As pictured:
0.6mm nozzle
0.75mm width
0.01mm height
280c
180mm/s
strongest print yet?
