Engineering score profile
Engineering radar
Legacy Impact radar: 24.342 % of legacy rig capacity. This historical visual reference is the mean corrected Flat/Upright result divided by the matching rig capacity; it is not a modern engineering score.
Izod and Charpy use versioned method references and together form one equally weighted impact family. Overall requires all five families and both calibrated methods; incomplete profiles are not ranked. Legacy Impact and thermal are outside Overall. Missing axes have gaps with no marker or filled polygon; measured zero retains a centre marker.
Fixture thermal result
Nearby BlueDOT probe-indicated fixture temperature from a non-standard comparative 3DPIceland method; not ASTM D648, ISO 75, specimen temperature, certified HDT or a manufacturer limit.

Engineering interpretation
Strengths
- Consistency: 92/100. Repeatability is one of the stronger signals in this material profile.
Limitations
- Tensile: 22/100. Avoid using this as the primary choice for tensile-loaded parts.
- Izod/Charpy impact family: 15/100. Validate impact or shock-loaded components against their application requirements.
- Stiffness: 46/100. Expect less shape stability than the stronger materials in the same family.
- Layer adhesion: 28/100. Z-axis performance should be treated with caution.
Engineering trade-offs
- Good repeatability does not compensate for low tensile capability in load-bearing designs.
- The report should be read as a suitability warning rather than a general-purpose recommendation.
Recommended applications
- Repeatable print jobs and production-style batches
- Cosmetic parts, concept models or low-load prototypes
- Avoid high tensile load applications
- Avoid high impact components

Decision guidance
- Use this material mainly for low-load, visual or experimental parts.
- Review the listed alternatives if the application needs stronger overall performance.
- Do not choose it as a tensile-strength benchmark material.
- Validate impact-focused or shock-loaded designs against the measured Izod/Charpy results.
