ESD-safe tooling that prints in days, not weeks
ESD-R-100 lets you print custom ESD-safe jigs and fixtures on your existing LCD or DLP printer instead of waiting weeks for machined metal parts. Static dissipation runs through the entire material, so machining or sanding a fixture does not destroy its protection.
Heat-tough resin
The heat deflection temperature is around 160 °C, so ESD-R-100 handles incidental heat from soldering and brief reflow profiles. It works for PCB assembly jigs and fixtures that sit close to heat sources.
Static-free tools
Surface resistivity sits in the static-dissipative range (ANSI/ESD S20.20: 1×10⁴ to less than 1×10¹¹ Ω/sq). Static charges bleed off safely instead of arcing into sensitive components.
Parts that fit
88 Shore D hardness, low shrinkage, and water absorption under 0.2% keep dimensions stable. PCB hold-down jigs seat correctly and component trays hold consistent positioning.
ESD-R-100: Static-Free Tools
Static ruins electronics - ESD-R-100 prevents it with 10^7-10^10 ohm/sq resistivity. This ESD-safe 3D printing resin prints tough jigs and fixtures with 160°C heat resistance for soldering and wafer handling. Low shrinkage keeps parts precise.
Custom Fixtures
Fragile fixtures waste time. ESD-R-100 resin for electronics, with 90 Shore D hardness and 160°C resistance, prints ESD-safe 10^7-10^10 ohm/sq tools that last.
ESD-R-100: Soldering Jigs
Heat warps lesser resins. ESD-R-100 resin for electronics withstands 160°C, printing ESD-safe jigs at 10^7-10^10 ohm/sq with clean, accurate finishes.
Frequently asked questions
How do I mix ESD-R-100 properly before printing?
Mix gently. An ultrasonic bath for 30 minutes works well. Avoid hard shaking, which introduces air bubbles that affect print quality and surface resistivity.
Consistent mixing matters more for carbon-pigmented resins than for clear ones. A dedicated mixing station or ultrasonic cleaner for ESD materials gives uniform dispersion every time you pour.
Can I machine or sand ESD-R-100 parts after printing?
Yes. Static-dissipative properties run through the entire material, so drilled, sanded, or machined surfaces remain effective.
This is the main advantage over surface-coated ESD plastics, where machining removes the conductive layer. ESD-R-100 jigs and fixtures can be modified after printing without losing protection.
How well does ESD-R-100 handle heat from soldering?
ESD-R-100 handles incidental heat and brief reflow profiles well. The heat deflection temperature is around 160 °C.
For wave-solder applications or fixtures that pass through preheat zones, test a sample first. Direct prolonged contact with a hot iron tip is not recommended.
Is ESD-R-100 suitable for cleanroom or dust-sensitive work?
Yes. ESD-R-100 does not build up static charge, so it attracts far less dust than standard plastics.
That keeps jigs and trays cleaner during use and can improve yield in particle-sensitive processes. The dissipative property holds up after normal cleaning and shop use.
How do I clean ESD-R-100 jigs?
Use IPA and wash thoroughly. ESD-R-100 has higher viscosity than clear resins, and the carbon pigmentation can leave residue, so change the wash IPA more frequently.
Dry parts completely with compressed air before post-curing. Trapped solvent can affect surface resistivity and mechanical properties over time.
Can I use ESD-R-100 for enclosures or housings?
Yes. ESD-R-100 works for ESD-safe enclosures, trays, and covers where static protection is needed without full conductivity. The dimensional stability also keeps housings and covers fitting on the first try.
