Filaments
PLA or PETG: which filament to choose
Both materials are 1.75 mm, made in-house, with laboratory control of every batch. The difference is in tasks, temperatures and colours.

How to choose a photopolymer resin for the task
AddiNova resins are designed for SLA, LCD and DLP machines; a wavelength of 405 nm is stated for most grades. But the right choice starts not with the printer but with the function of the part: what it has to withstand and how it will be used.
If you need a master model for casting
AddiNova Castable is a burnout resin for master models that are removed completely in the thermal cycle. Ash content is below 0.01 %, which lowers the risk of contaminating the mould. Suitable for jewellery and industrial casting and fine-detail elements.
If the part works under heat
AddiNova HT is a rigid resin for tooling, jigs, moulds and housings. Heat resistance of up to 240 °C is declared, depending on the final curing regime.
If strength and impact matter
- AddiNova Force is a rigid engineering resin: 75 Shore D, tensile strength 35.19 MPa. Housings, mounts, prototypes of mechanisms.
- AddiNova Durable is strength combined with deformability: elongation at break 88.6 %. Latches, clips, protective housings.
If the part has to bend
- AddiNova Flex — resilient and damping parts, elongation at break 212 %.
- AddiNova Silicone LCD — soft silicone-like products and fine relief, 52 Shore A.
If you need special properties
Functional and custom formulations: ESD — static charge dissipation near electronics, FR — a flame-retardant modification, EPU — a tuneable elastomer, Standart — a universal low-odour resin, Simple — master models for platinum-cure silicones.
Separate ranges
For audiology — moulds for silicone, soft and hard ear inserts, device housings. For dentistry — surgical guides, gingiva masks, bases, trays, models, temporary and burnout structures.
Do not forget post-processing
Washing, drying and final curing are part of the technology: they directly affect the geometry and properties of the part. The exposure profile is selected for each printer model. Before serial or medical use, the instructions, safety data sheet, batch, equipment and market requirements are checked.
