PEEK 3D printing

High-performance plastic parts for demanding applications

PEEK 3D printing is one of the biggest challenges for 3D printing manufacturers. The high temperature resistance and the basic properties of the thermoplastic material require the highest precision and in-depth expertise, for example when setting the correct PEEK printing temperature. However, with its positive thermal, chemical and mechanical properties, PEEK is one of the most important materials for high-performance plastic components and forms the basis for 3D PEEK components of the highest quality.

Ensinger is one of the largest PEEK processors in the world. We have more than three decades of experience in PEEK processing and produce at our global production sites. Our extensive plastics expertise and in-depth technical knowledge enables us to be one of the few manufacturers to offer PEEK 3D printing and to produce PEEK 3D parts to the highest quality standards, providing solutions tailored to our customers' requirements with the highest precision.


Your Benefits at a glance: Our PEEK printing service

While other manufacturers use and post-process PAEK variants, we are able to print PEEK directly in semi-crystalline form. With a high level of process expertise, we print void and pressure-tight PEEK parts with a high degree of isotropy & layer bonding as well as minimal warping. Additionally, we offer a wide range of filaments, e.g. food-safe and medical grade materials or established and well-known materials such as VICTREX® 450G and Evonik VESTAKEEP® 4000, enabling us to offer 3D PEEK parts of the highest quality - tailored to your needs.

  • Semi-crystalline printing of PEEK - rather than special variants such as PAEK types
  • No annealing & post processing required for crystallinity
  • Broad portfolio of filaments, such as VICTREX® 450G & Evonik VESTAKEEP® 4000
  • Food- and medical grade materials
  • Voidless & pressure tight parts
  • Highest isotropy & layer bonding
  • Lowest warpage of PEEK parts

Industry partner for PEEK 3D parts

As a global company with a broad portfolio of solutions, we have in-depth expertise in numerous industries. We see ourselves as more than just a PEEK 3D printing provider or manufacturing expert. Working closely with our partners and customers, we can also adapt to the individual but demanding requirements of numerous industries. For example, we offer certified PEEK FDM materials and qualified PEEK 3D printing facilities for medical technology and aerospace, as well as for metal replacement and lightweight construction.

PEEK FDM Filaments: our Material portfolio

PEEK is one of the most important plastics for demanding applications due to its advantageous properties: PEEK 3D printing material is dimensionally stable, withstands high temperatures and is resistant to gamma and X-rays. As a thermoplastic, it is recyclable, but also has the advantage of being directly printable in a semi-crystalline state compared to other thermoplastics. This makes PEEK particularly suitable for applications where components need to withstand high temperatures for long periods of time without losing their excellent mechanical properties. As a plastic, it is also significantly lighter than metal or aluminium, which is why many customers use it for lightweighting or CO2 savings. With our broad portfolio of PEEK material for 3D printing and numerous modification options, we can meet our customers' individual requirements.
