RGD450 (Rigur) overview

RGD450 (Rigur) is a high-performance rigid photopolymer specifically designed for PolyJet Matrix 3D printing. This durable white resin delivers exceptional mechanical properties with polypropylene-like characteristics, making it ideal for functional prototypes and assemblies requiring superior impact resistance and toughness. With enhanced elongation at break and excellent flexural strength, RGD450 enables the creation of snap-fit components, living hinges, and complex assemblies that closely mimic injection-molded parts.

Why manufacture with RGD450 (Rigur)

RGD450 (Rigur) combines superior impact resistance compared to standard rigid resins and enhanced elongation at break (35%) for ductile assemblies, delivering excellent surface finish with minimal layer lines for demanding applications. From rapid prototyping to production runs, teams rely on RGD450 (Rigur) to maintain tight tolerances while reducing assembly complexity through consolidated part designs.

PolyJet Production Technology

Stratasys Connex3 systems jet microscopic droplets of photopolymer with 16-micron layer resolution, delivering exceptional surface smoothness straight from the printer with minimal post-processing required. The triple-jetting technology enables simultaneous printing of rigid, flexible, and transparent materials in a single build, creating overmolded parts, soft-touch surfaces, and living hinges without assembly. Our material selection spans from rubber-like Agilus 30 for gaskets and seals, crystal-clear VeroUltraClear for lenses and light pipes, to high-impact Rigur for snap-fits and functional prototypes that rival injection-molded parts.

Applications & field work

Where RGD450 (Rigur) excels

RGD450 (Rigur) on our Connex3 system provides polypropylene-like appearance for prototyping applications. When combined with Agilus30 in multi-material builds, Rigur enables overmolded prototypes and assemblies that simulate production part aesthetics.

The material's primary value lies in multi-material prototyping, where Rigur serves as the rigid substrate combined with Agilus30 soft-touch areas. This combination allows designers to evaluate overmolded designs, living hinges, and multi-durometer assemblies before committing to tooling.

Forge Labs' Connex3 capabilities excel at multi-material prototypes combining Rigur with Agilus30 or VeroClear. These prototypes provide visual and tactile feedback for design reviews, though they are strictly for validation rather than functional use.
