What performance tests are carried out on Lattice Services filaments?
At Lattice Services, each filament undergoes a comprehensive series of performance tests to ensure consistent quality and reliable mechanical properties. We specifically measure Young’s modulus, elongation at break, maximum tensile strength, degradation temperature, melting temperature, resorption time, glass transition, and molecular weight. Additional analyses, such as DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) and GPC (Gel Permeation Chromatography), help refine the material characterization. All detailed technical data are available in the datasheets, which can be downloaded from the product pages.
Why do shipping fees vary between products?
Shipping fees are fixed for most of our products. For certain items, a transport insurance is automatically added. It covers the total value of the product or the entire order to protect high-value, premium materials during shipping. This may result in slight differences in delivery costs, even for the same shipping address.
What are the quality certifications for Lattice Services' medical filaments?
Lattice Services filaments hold certifications that confirm their compliance with quality and safety standards. All materials are ISO 10993-5 certified for biocompatibility, and depending on the type of material, other parts of the ISO standard may also apply. Some materials may also have USP Class VI and GMP certifications. This list is not exhaustive and may vary depending on the material. All detailed information is available on the product pages, and our team is available for any additional clarification.
How does Lattice Services guarantee the traceability of its materials for 3D printing?
At Lattice Services, each material is fully traceable to ensure product quality and reliability. Filaments are tracked by production date, batch number, and serial number, allowing every step of the manufacturing process to be traced and ensuring precise control of each product.
How does Lattice Services ensure that its filaments comply with medical standards?
The compliance of filaments with medical standards is guaranteed through certificates provided by our raw material suppliers. Production is carried out according to good laboratory practices, ensuring rigorous control of the quality and safety of materials throughout the manufacturing process.
