3D Printing Flexible Materials: 5 Ways to Apply Agilus30 White to Parts in GrabCAD Print
Agilus30 is a rubber-like PolyJet photopolymer. Since it holds up well against repeated flexing and bending, it's great for prototypes and concept models such as grips, hoses and handles.
But what also makes Agilus30 so great is that it can be printed on its own at a natural durometer value of Shore 30A OR it can be mixed with another material to achieve different shore A values and colors.
In this GrabCAD Tutorial, we'll reveal five different ways you can apply Agilus30 White to your parts in GrabCAD Print.

Step 2: How to Alter the Shore Value of a Part
This video demonstrates how to alter the shore value of a part, which is helpful if you want multiple surface types on a part.
For example, in this video, the engineer wants the inner core of the model to have a rigid shore value with Shore A70; and he also wants the outer shell to have a Shore A30 value, which will give it a soft touch.
Watch how applying these different values to an assembly is easy in GrabCAD Print!
