Support Matrix
The following matrix indicates the support material that we recommend for a given model material. These support materials allow our customers to create parts with complex geometry using printers that have dual nozzles - one for model and the other for support.
HTS: High-Temp Support, this is a break-away material created for use with a broad array of high-temp materials.
AquaTek™: Water soluble support that is ideal for a broad array of materials in the general purpose to engineering grade range.
