FFF printers that can print PEEK
Semi-crystalline polyetheretherketone for parts that must keep strength above 200 °C and resist chemicals, sterilisation and wear. The hardest common FFF polymer to print well.
Requirement: nozzle at least 400 °C and an actively heated chamber of 100 °C or more. Crystallinity depends on chamber heat and annealing. 1 of 13 indexed printers qualify: Vision Miner 22 IDEX V4.
Qualified
QualifiedThese systems reach the nozzle temperature and hold an active chamber at or above the recommendation, or are closed systems whose vendor sells PEEK.
