3D Printing with Nylon to Create Flexible and Durable Goods [Video]
As 3D printing matures, new printing materials emerge that allow us to build more durable goods. Nylon provides both durability and flexibility benefits over standard materials like ABS plastic. With a higher melting point, nylon is less brittle. Products that can be created out of nylon range from iPhone cases to gear parts to a bike planter like in the photo above.
The video below showcases some parts 3D printed in nylon.
And this video shows the printing process.
