Smooth TPU 95A is a rubber-like material that when used with Markforged composite printers offers product developers and manufacturers the ability to create flexible, impact-absorbent parts on demand.

Manufacturers have historically struggled to produce flexible parts in low volumes. Conventional methods to make custom geometries in these materials generally require one-off tooling, driving high start-up costs and long lead times. Few, if any, 3D printing systems can produce viable parts with the consistency and mechanical properties required for production.
