Polyamide and nylon are frequently utilized interchangeably, as they belong to the same class of engineered polymers. These materials are increasingly utilized due to their excellent mechanical properties, toughness, and adaptability. Nylon is a type of polyamide polymer (polyamides encompass a large group of materials), so they cannot be utilized interchangeably. This comparison guide will […]

Styrene acrylonitrile (SAN) is a copolymer, or polymer blend, that combines the properties of styrene and acrylonitrile. Styrene contributes to SAN’s transparency, stiffness, and excellent processability. Acrylonitrile imparts SAN’s hardness, rigidity, and resistance to heat and chemicals. Because of its exceptional properties, injection molded SAN is considered to be a specialty plastic rather than a […]

One of the challenges with rapid prototyping is making sure that everything fits together properly. If the design team isn’t careful with its high-fidelity models, parts assembly may involve the use of a hammer – and sometimes in frustration. With proper callouts, however, the secondary machining of 3D-printed and injection-molded parts gives designers a better […]
