The new xESD resin provides an innovative and cost-effective solution for fabricating high-resolution, static-dissipative parts required in a multitude of electronics applications, as well as on the factory floor when handling critical electronics components. The xESD resin is a rigid photoplastic material with a stable carbon nanotube dispersion that delivers optimal static-dissipative performance and isotropic mechanical properties, which are required by the electronics manufacturing industry. The xESD resin allows users to create custom jigs, fixtures, grippers, assembly aides, and enclosures in hours without the risk of ESD damage to high-value electronic components. The material is available in black for both the newly released NXE Pro series printers as well as the XiP desktop 3D printer.
New Modeling Materials – xMODEL15 and xMODEL35
Nexa3D once again breaks barriers in 3D Printing with the introduction of two new materials under the xMODEL class and both resins are now available for both the NXE2-400 and NXE 2-400Pro platforms as well as the XiP desktop 3D printer.
xMODEL15 is an economical modeling material that yields superb speed, productivity, and great surface finish quality. Those looking for next level finishes will be glad to know that the xMODEL15 is suitable for polishing, painting, and even plating. Most importantly, xMODEL15 is derived from plant-based materials, has low odor, and can be cleaned easily with water and soft brushing. This new material is available in white, gray, and black colors.

xMODEL35 is a rigid, high performance modeling resin that demonstrates excellent mechanical performance, good thermal properties, and low moisture absorption. The xMODEL35 produces crisp details, and makers will rest assured their work will retain dimensional accuracy when transported through extremes in temperature and humidity. Well-suited for high-quality functional models as well as many end-use applications, the xMODEL35 provides great first-time print success and achieves the fine detail and precision associated with Nexa3D’s LSPc technology. It is offered in gray and black colors.
