TEPU 50A is a thiolene polyurethane-based elastomer with a Shore 50A durometer and low compression set that offers excellent UV stability and strong chemical compatibility. TEPU 50A is the latest addition to the Inkbit Vista\u2122 ecosystem, developed in response to customer requests for a Shore 45-55A elastomer that could accurately produce intricate detail in a wide range of geometries with excellent surface finish and elastic resilience.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">TEPU 50A is the second elastomer to be offered by Inkbit and follows TEPU 30A (formally known as the Vulcan Soft Elastomer 30). Ideal for demanding applications that require a medium-soft shore hardness and optimal sealing and compression attributes. TEPU 50A is an excellent choice for replacing or prototyping soft rubber components, silicones, or molded TPUs that require precision and detailed features. Its suitability extends to various applications, including grommets, window and door seals, soft grippers, gaskets, and similar soft elastic components.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The new elastomer is not only a response to technical specifications but also addresses the real-world challenges faced by manufacturers when sourcing low-volume rubber-like components. Maximilian Neck, CEO of ProductionToGo, shared his enthusiasm for this new material solution: \u201cSourcing lowvolume rubber-like components is a constant challenge for organizations. Traditional methods are expensive in small quantities and can take several weeks or months to procure, directly impacting overall production timelines,\u201d said Neck. \u201cBefore TEPU 50A, we couldn\u2019t find a soft 3D printed elastomer option that combined good surface finish accuracy, fine detail reproduction, and stable mechanical properties to mimic nitrile rubber or molded TPU. We are excited about having this option available.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cTEPU 50A is the culmination of years of chemistry and process development driven by customers searching for an alternative to molded or cast silicones and rubbers for prototyping and beyond,\u201d said Inkbit Co-Founder and CEO Davide Marini. \u201cOur novel thiol-ene polyurethane-based chemistries enables us to print soft but resilient elastomers that are UV stable and have excellent chemical compatibility.\u201d<br \/>\nDue to their high viscosity, chemistry limitations, and printing difficulties, typical commercially available 3D printed elastomers on other technologies are challenging to print with, and the finished part properties degrade quickly under UV exposure. TEPU 50A\u2019s part properties are highly stable due to a powerful thiol-ene chemical reaction during the print process, and Inkbit\u2019s unique Vision Control Jetting (VCJ) with closed-loop feedback control ensures that parts are built quickly and accurately every time.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em><strong>rubberworld<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baspar\/Iranpolymer\u00a0 Medford, MA \u2013 Inkbit\u2122 at Formnext, 2023, the availability of its new TEPU 50A elastomer.
