PIOCREAT
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about PIOCREAT from 3G Electric.
What materials are available in the PIOCREAT 3D-printing pellet range?
PIOCREAT supplies pellets in several polymer types, including PLA, PETG, ABS, polypropylene (PP), polycarbonate-carbon fiber (PC-CF), and ABS-carbon fiber (ABS-CF). These are available in various colors such as white, black, and transparent, depending on the material. Each material is supplied in 25 kg bags and has a durometer of 100 Shore D. The carbon-fiber-reinforced grades are intended for applications requiring higher stiffness. For specific material properties and processing recommendations, refer to the manufacturer's datasheet.
What is the durometer of PIOCREAT pellets and what does it indicate?
PIOCREAT pellets are specified with a durometer of 100 Shore D. Shore D is a measure of hardness for rigid plastics. A value of 100 Shore D indicates a hard, rigid material. This is typical for engineering thermoplastics like PLA, ABS, and PETG. The durometer is a material property and does not directly indicate the flexibility or impact resistance of the final printed part, which also depends on the printing process and part geometry.
Are PIOCREAT pellets compatible with all 3D printers?
PIOCREAT pellets are designed for pellet-based extrusion 3D printing systems, not for filament-based printers. Pellet extruders use raw pellets as feedstock, which typically requires a different hardware setup than filament printers. Users should verify compatibility with their specific printer model and extruder. The pellets are supplied in 25 kg bags, which is a common format for pellet-fed systems. For technical guidance, consult the printer manufacturer and PIOCREAT datasheets.
What are the packaging and supply options for PIOCREAT pellets from 3G Electric?
3G Electric supplies PIOCREAT pellets in 25 kg bags. Multiple SKUs are available, covering different materials and colors. 3G Electric provides datasheets and logistics support for global shipping. For specific packaging or supply inquiries, contact 3G Electric directly. The product listings include manufacturer part numbers for easy identification.
Can PIOCREAT carbon-fiber pellets be used for tooling applications?
PIOCREAT offers PC-CF and ABS-CF pellets, which are polycarbonate and ABS reinforced with carbon fiber. These materials are used in additive manufacturing for tooling, jigs, fixtures, and functional prototypes. The carbon fiber reinforcement increases stiffness and dimensional stability compared to unreinforced grades. They are supplied in 25 kg bags with a durometer of 100 Shore D. For specific tooling requirements, evaluate the material properties against the application's mechanical and thermal demands.
