Tempus 3D Expands Its Materials Portfolio with Tough 2000 Resin V1

At Tempus 3D, we continually expand our material portfolio. Our goal is to help clients move from concept to production with confidence. We are pleased to announce that we now offer Tough 2000 Resin V1. This high-performance SLA material is engineered for strong, stiff, and durable functional parts.

Why Tough 2000 Resin V1?

Tough 2000 Resin V1 simulates the strength and stiffness of ABS plastic. This makes it ideal for applications that demand:

• High rigidity

• Minimal deflection under load

• Long-term functional performance

• Structural integrity in demanding environments

  
  

Key Mechanical Properties

• Tensile Modulus: 2,100 MPa

• Ultimate Tensile Strength: 46 MPa

• Thermal Expansion: 91 μm/m/°C

  
  

These characteristics make Tough 2000 one of the most robust SLA materials available for engineering-grade applications.

Ideal Use Cases

1. Functional Prototypes

   When you need prototypes that behave like final production parts, Tough 2000 provides the structural performance required for real-world testing.

   
   

2. Jigs & Fixtures

   Its stiffness and dimensional stability make it perfect for manufacturing aids where minimal flex is critical.

   
   

3. Housings & Structural Components

   Use it for enclosures, brackets, and load-bearing parts that must maintain shape and strength over time.

   
   

4. Low-Volume End-Use Parts

   Where traditional tooling may not be economical, Tough 2000 enables short-run production with engineering-grade performance.

   
   

Why This Matters for Our Clients

At Tempus 3D, we focus on industrial-grade additive manufacturing. Adding Tough 2000 Resin V1 allows us to:

• Deliver stronger, more reliable parts

• Expand into higher-performance engineering applications

• Support clients in manufacturing, automotive, product design, and industrial tooling

• Reduce iteration time while increasing real-world testing confidence

  
  

For companies developing hardware, machinery components, or advanced product prototypes, this material bridges the gap between concept and production-ready performance.

Let’s Build Something Stronger

If your project requires:

• Structural strength

• Dimensional stability

• Functional performance testing

• Industrial-grade SLA precision

  
  

Tough 2000 Resin V1 may be the right solution.
