Stratasys Nylon 12CF vs. Continuous Carbon Fiber deflection testing:
The blue curve use Continuous Carbon Fiber (CCF), while the orange curve tool is made with Stratasys Nylon 12CF and the grey curve is aluminium. Stratasys Nylon 12CF show the least deformation very close to Aluminium, while reducing the part weight significantly more than 2.5 times lighter.
