PETG / PETG-CF / PC

The grille project

The three materials used for the air-mover grille replacements. The photographed pieces show the same reproduced geometry printed in PETG, PETG-CF and polycarbonate.

Material properties describe a particular grade and test condition. The printed part’s design, processing and intended use determine its suitability.
