The DaVinci Lab PETG 3D printer filament (Polyethylene Terephthalate) is one of the most common used polymers today. It is also used in the manufacture of food packaging, water bottles and many other common plastic items. PETG filament has proven its worth as a durable material that is easy to use. Figuratively speaking, it combines the most useful characteristics of ABS filament with the ease of printing that PLA filament affords.

PETG features:

Higher strength
Lower shrinkage
Combines good strength with ductility, making it a good, tough material for mechanical parts
Good chemical resistance
Contains UV absorber
Good hydrophobicity (does not absorb water easily)

The DaVinci Lab PETG filament has the following characteristics:

100% virgin material without cheap plastic fillers
Print Temperature: 210 – 250°C, dependent on printer model
Heat Bed temperature: 90 – 110°C
1Kg net weight
Accurate diameter of 1.75mm with a tolerance of ± 0.05mm
Spool Size: diameter 197mm, inner hub 60mm & height 60mm
Vacuumed Sealed With Desiccant
ROHS Certification from SGS testing

DaVinci Lab Flexible Filament TPU (1.75mm 0.8Kg) Yellow (WH PLA flexable yellow)

Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) belongs to a class of polyurethane plastics having many important properties such as elasticity, transparency, and resistance to grease, oil, and abrasion. It is unique due to its extremely flexible nature. Technically speaking, TPUs are made up of thermoplastic elastomers.

TPU has different advantages such as resistance to abrasion, ability to perform at low temperature, elasticity, and mechanical properties along with rubber-like elasticity.

TPU printing filament is flexible in nature. It can bend easily without any effect on the design, strength and durability. A mild soap can be used for its cleaning.

Flexible TPU filaments can be stored in a cool airtight container. Container may also have a desiccant pack, so that filament remains bone dry. This container can also help in preventing the entry of dirt and dust particles, so that the filament could be used anytime for print. Although some type of TPUs are water-resistant, prolonged contact with water could result in degradation of the product.

For optimal results print flexible TPU filaments on direct extruders; however, it is possible to print on Bowden extruders as well. Flexible TPU filaments have the ability to adhere well to most surfaces such as glass, aluminum, Kapton tape, and blue painters tape. It is important to always print in a well ventilated room regardless of the filament type.

The DaVinci Lab flexible (TPU) filament has the following characteristics:

Consistent color
0.8Kg net weight
Print Temperature: 200 – 230°C
Heat Bed temperature: 50 – 80°C
Print Speed: 30 – 50mm/s
Accurate diameter of 1.75mm +-0.05mm
Vacuumed Sealed With Desiccant

XTC-3D 680g protective coating for smoothing and finishing 3D printed parts (WH XTC 3D 680g)

Description

XTC-3D® is a protective coating for smoothing and finishing 3D printed parts. Two liquids are mixed together and brushed onto any 3D print. Coating self-levels and wets out uniformly without leaving brush strokes. Working time is 10 minutes and cure time is about 4 hours (depending on mass and temperature). XTC-3D® cures to a hard, impact resistant coating that can be sanded, primed and painted. Adding colors and metal effects is easy.

How To

Features

Inexpensive to Use – 1 oz covers 100+ square inches (see coverage information below).

90% Time & Labor Savings: XTC-3D® fills in 3D print striations and creates a smooth, high gloss finish. The need to post finish is almost eliminated.

Coat any 3D Print Surface - XTC-3D® can be applied to both SLA and SLS prints. It works with PLA, ABS, Laywoo, Powder Printed Parts and other rigid media. It also can be used to coat EPS, EPDM and urethane foam as well as wood, plaster, fabric, cardboard and paper.

XTC-3D® does not contain VOC’s, phthalates or phosphates.

Pack Size

680g

L293D Dual H-Bridge IC - Solenoid, DC & Stepper Motor Driver (1D3 L293D IC H-bridge)

The L293DNE Dual H-Bridge IC is able to run four solenoids, two DC motors or one bi-polar or uni-polar stepper motor, with up to 600mA per channel!

Each chip contains two full H-bridges (four half H-bridges) which means you can drive four solenoids, two DC motors bi-directionally, or one stepper motor. Just make sure they're good for under 600 mA since that's the limit of this chip. They do handle a peak of 1.2A but that's just for a short amount of time. What we like most about this particular driver is that it comes with built in kick-back diodes internally so you dont have to worry about the inductive kick damaging your project or driver

The L293D Dual H-Bridge IC - Stepper & DC Motor Driver Features:

Dual H-Bridges - run four solenoids, two DC motors, or one uni-polar or bi-polar stepper motor
Output Current: 600mA per channel (1.2A Max)
No of Channels: 4
Input: 5V Logic
Supply Voltage Range: 4.5V to 36V
No. of Pins: 16
Operating Temperature Range: 0°C to +70°C
