Engineering score profile
Engineering radar
Selected material
Material average - PLA
Manufacturer average - Coex 3D
Legacy Impact radar: 12.016 % 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.

Engineering interpretation
Summary: Coex 3D Standard Scarlet Red PLA Red has a balanced mid-range engineering profile. It is without enough material-family average context and above its manufacturer average by 11,1 points. Its strongest measured axis is Stiffness, while the weakest axis is Charpy.
Data-driven review: Coex 3D Standard Scarlet Red PLA Red is best understood as a balanced material for general functional prototypes. Compared with the current verified dataset, it ranks better than 100% overall, is missing enough context for the material-family average, and is above the manufacturer average by 11,1 points. Its strongest engineering signal is Stiffness, while Charpy is the main limitation to consider before using it for demanding applications.

Strengths
- Layer adhesion: 61/100. Z-axis bonding is better than the material-family context.
- Consistency: 86/100. Repeatability is one of the stronger signals in this material profile.
- Tensile: 39/100. Tensile behavior is competitive against the material-family context.
- Stiffness: 100/100. Stiffness is a relative advantage in this comparison group.
Limitations
- Tensile: 39/100. Avoid using this as the primary choice for tensile-loaded parts.
- Izod/Charpy impact family: 4/100. Validate impact or shock-loaded components against their application requirements.
Engineering trade-offs
- Good repeatability does not compensate for low tensile capability in load-bearing designs.
- Stiffness is useful for shape stability, but impact tolerance is a separate limitation.
Recommended applications
- Rigid brackets, fixtures and shape-stable prototypes
- Parts where Z-axis bonding is important
- Repeatable print jobs and production-style batches
- Cosmetic parts, concept models or low-load prototypes
- Avoid high impact components

Decision guidance
- Use this material for moderate requirements after checking the weakest axis.
- Validate impact-focused or shock-loaded designs against the measured Izod/Charpy results.

Methodology and limitations
Results are comparative 3DPIceland measurements from home-built test equipment. Thermal is a nearby BlueDOT probe-indicated fixture temperature, not ASTM D648, ISO 75 or specimen temperature. Missing evidence remains n/a. Scores and test results are not recalculated by this publishing layer and do not replace certified manufacturer datasheets or accredited laboratory testing.
