Tusk SolidGrey3000: a revolution in stereolithography

Materialise is proud to introduce an exceptional addition to its range of stereolithography materials, Tusk SolidGrey3000.

“After all the new SL materials introduced over the last years, the Tusk Solidgrey3000 promises to revolutionise the world of Rapid Prototyping and Manufacturing.  With its  high impact strength combined with an excellent all round performance: stiffness, strength, heat and moisture resistance it the most impressive material I’ve seen so far.” states Materialise R&D Manager, Toon Roels.

A winning combination
The strength and durability which nature has long since achieved with the shell of a turtle, has now been replicated with Tusk SolidGrey3000. It is the world’s first stereolithography material that combines a high degree of stiffness with high impact resistance, and it is available exclusively at Materialise. Parts built with this material are not only robust, but highly functional as well, allowing them to be used in a wide variety of applications.

Think big! Think fast!
Tusk SolidGrey3000 was designed for use on Materialise’s Mammoth machines, the largest and fastest stereolithography machines in the world. On these machines it is possible to build parts of up to 2100x700x800mm in size, and does so surprisingly quickly.

Like water off a duck’s back
In addition to its other qualities, Tusk SolidGrey3000 is also water resistant, a characteristic which results in long term dimensional and technical stability.

Tusk SolidGrey3000 applications
Some application possibilities for Tusk SolidGrey3000:

• Automotive body part panels
• Machine covers
• Functional prototypes
• Durable concept models
• Robust scale models

Tusk SolidGrey3000 in a nutshell
If Engineers and Designers are looking for the following qualities for their prototype models, then Tusk SolidGrey3000 is the material they’ve been waiting for:

• A high degree of stiffness
• High impact resistance
• Parts from small to large
• Fast printing
• Water resistance
