Unfortunately for engineers, the spec sheet isn’t going to tell you everything you need to know about how a material will perform in the real world. Standardized tests from organizations such as ASTM and ISO are designed to be easy to perform and relevant to a broad range of applications and materials. In this regard, they represent a “lowest common denominator” approach. There purpose is the be “standard”, not to be the best representation of reality. In this article, we pick a fight with...

After 4000 days of development, we proudly present: COR Zero! COR Zero is an extremely rugged resin that you can 3D print in your home workshop. We're launching COR Zero today in partnership with Kickstarter. What's new? The ability to print COR Zero at home, using inexpensive equipment: a freezer, a microwave, and a resin 3D printer. What's the same? The best-in-class combination of thermomechanical performance, bio-compatibility, and chemical resistance of polySpectra's Cyclic Olefin...

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...
