We created this website to help engineers and hobbyists involved in 3D printing choose the right material for a specific project. It also provides useful information for those who simply want to learn more about the properties of different filament types.
Our main goal is to
- enable users to filter different filament types from various manufacturers based on specified material characteristics;
- make it possible to compare the properties of the filaments listed in the filtered product selection;
- help determine which filament type meets the specified parameters;
- and show whether the smaller differences in properties are worth the price difference between manufacturers.
Another important aspect is that Technical Data Sheets and Certificates should also be available for download.
How does a good idea get from concept to reality?
What steps are needed to turn an idea into a real, functional, and successful product?
Product discovery – the stage where we understand the real problem and explore the needs and opportunities of the target audience.
Assessing the OPPORTUNITY often brings 3D printing to the forefront (quantity, cost).
Product design – when the idea takes shape as a real solution: a functional, usable, and desirable product.
At the stage of creating a FUNCTIONAL solution, we need to assess which filaments we will test for the prototypes.
Go to market – the stage of strategy and execution, where it is decided how the product reaches users and how it becomes a market success.
The foundation of SUCCESS is the continuous collection of feedback on the prototypes, including their material.
What can we add to this process?
Comparability of different filaments based on their properties – which is the main purpose of the website. We also present various products specifically manufactured with 3D printing, which may inspire your own ideas as well.
