Magigoo Pro Metal - Build plate adhesive for Ultrafuse 316L metal filament

Magigoo Pro Metal - special adhesive for BASF metal filament.

MAGIGOO Metal was developed as a professional first layer adhesive for BASF Ultrafuse® 316L. Magigoo Metal is non-hazardous, non-flammable and also approved for use in the post-processing of BASF Ultrafuse® 316L. Magigoo Metal also allows for easy removal of the green parts from the build plate.

WHY:

BASF Ultrafuse 316L enables the production of solid 316L stainless steel parts using desktop FDM 3D printers and a sintering process. Ultrafuse® 316L filament consists of highly refined metal particles embedded in thermoplastic binders. As a filament, the metal-polymer composite thus poses none of the occupational and safety risks associated with handling fine metal powders. This enables affordable, easy and safe 3D printing of stainless steel parts.

Due to the thermoplastic nature of the filament binding materials and differential thermal cooling during FDM printing, parts printed with BASF Ultrafuse® 316L are prone to warping. Due to the delicate nature of the green part, care must be taken when removing parts printed with BASF Ultrafuse® 316L to avoid deforming the part. Magigoo Metal provides secure and reliable adhesion during printing and allows easy removal of the printed part by immersion in water, avoiding potential damage to the green part.

HOW:

A build plate temperature of 95-105°C is recommended for using Magigoo Metal with BASF Ultrafuse® 316L, however printing conditions may vary from printer to printer.

• Shake the bottle.
• Apply the product to the desired area by pressing the spring on the bed (which activates the inner valve) and distributing it as needed.
• Print according to the filament/printer manufacturer's recommendations.
• After the print. Submerge the entire build plate in water or soak the part with water. After a short while - typically 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the size of the part - the part should pop off on its own or be easy to remove with a slight twist.
• Clean any residue - Wipe off with a damp cloth.

SECURITY:

Using this product with filaments other than BASF Ultrafuse 316L may cause excessive adhesion and damage your surface. Follow the instructions in the technical data sheet for best results.
