Nexa3D Delivers New Everlast Membrane to Extend Series Production Runs

Nexa3D makes available its Everlast Membrane, a new interface layer technology that extends the useful life of membranes for series production operations on the NXE400 3D printer. Nexa3D Everlast Membrane reportedly overcomes the constraints of currently practiced alternative membrane technologies including clouding, chemical instability and doming effects.

Made from a durable and resilient substrate that can extend the printer’s useful life, Everlast Membrane exceeds 50,000 layers processing up to 20 liters of material per membrane, company says. Operators can expect less downtime for membrane changes, and much longer continuous runs in series production operations of precision functional parts. 

Beyond substantially extended useful life, the Everlast Membrane exhibits consistent optical transmittance, so the 1000th produced part is identical to the first, and improves the surface finish and dimensional accuracy of all printed parts across the entire material portfolio. The Everlast Membrane is fully compatible with NXE400 workflows and printing parameters, offering dynamic performance monitoring of the membrane with predictive usability feedback.

“3D print manufacturers seek every possible advantage to keep their workflows moving as fast and efficiently as possible while maintaining consistent production standards,” says Michele Marchesan, chief growth officer, Nexa3D. “Nexa3D Everlast Membranes give them yet another edge to provide longer, uninterrupted production runs and lower waste while ensuring consistent production part quality.”
