Start rugged, finish strong - Cerakote & COR unlock unprecedented durability

Published over 1 year ago • 1 min read

We are thrilled to announce our new partnership with Cerakote, the global leader in thin-film ceramic coatings. TL;DR => 3D printed Cyclic Olefin Resin components coated with Cerakote ceramic thin-films present a new paradigm of performance for additive manufacturing.

Here's how it all began...

When we first met Cerakote, the collaboration was a no-brainer. What would happen when we combined the most rugged photopolymer resin with the most rugged spray coating?

Cerakote was game to try. Their team quickly coated COR Alpha test plaques with their C-7300 “Black Velvet”, then popped them into their QUV accelerated weather chamber and told us that they would get back to us in 6 weeks.

1000 hours later - there were absolutely no signs of any degradation. Even though 1000 hours of QUV accelerated weathering is a common benchmark for even the most demanding applications, they insisted on more...

polySpectra was founded with the mission to help engineers make their ideas real. For the past seven years, we have been focused on turning bits into atoms. 3D models into rugged end-use parts. Recent advances in AI have given us the opportunity to go one step further: ideas into bits. Introducing: neThing.xyz neThing.xyz is our new generative AI tool for 3D CAD models. The tool converts natural language prompts into code, which is then converted into a 3D model. Here are just a few examples...
