This adaptability allows manufacturers to adjust a material\u2019s hardness, flexibility, or durability to match specific application needs. In 3D printing, this is especially valuable for projects that require both high dimensional accuracy and specific performance characteristics, whether it\u2019s elasticity for impact absorption, rigidity for structural support, or resistance to harsh chemicals.<br \/>Because polyurethane formulations can be tailored for different 3D printing techniques such as stereolithography (SLA), digital light processing (DLP), or material jetting, they provide advantages like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Customizable hardness: You can make it very soft or very hard, depending on the need.<\/li>\n<li>Excellent adhesion to substrates: This improves print accuracy and reducing layer misalignment.<\/li>\n<li>Chemical and heat resistance: Enabling long-term performance in tough conditions.<\/li>\n<li>Design flexibility: Allowing resin formulations to be optimized for individual projects (you can have custom design).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a270045 section pd-0 pb-0 pt-0 e-flex

use solid plastic wires (filaments) or liquid resins. Spray foam printing is different. It uses a special two-part polyurethane mixture that is sprayed out through a nozzle. This nozzle can be attached to a robotic arm or other automated system that moves with great accuracy.<\/p>\n<p>The foam is sprayed in thin layers. Each layer quickly hardens before the next one is applied. By controlling the spray speed, angle, layer thickness, and timing, complex shapes can be created much faster than with regular 3D printing.<br \/>Compared to other resins like epoxy, polyurethane can be made less brittle and more flexible. It also sticks better to different surfaces, which is very helpful for printing unusual shapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Benefits of using polyurethane foam in 3D printing<\/h2>\n<p>Manufacturers and designers like <a title=\"polyurethane foam\" href=\"\/blog\/en\/educational\/what-is-polyurethane-foam\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">polyurethane foam<\/a> because it combines strength, durability, and flexibility. Some of its most valuable benefits include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Impact and compression resistance:<\/strong> parts can withstand high mechanical stress without cracking or deforming.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Enhanced durability:<\/strong> better resistance to chemicals, moisture, and heat compared to many conventional resins.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Compatibility with multiple 3D printing methods:<\/strong> including DLP, SLA, and certain thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) FDM systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Fully customizable properties:<\/strong> formulation can be changed to adjust curing time, surface texture, or mechanical performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b94ccc4 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b94ccc4\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7359359 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7359359\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"1066\" src=\"https:\/\/imenpol.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/Polyurethane-materials-for-3D-printing.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-17614\" alt=\"Polyurethane materials for 3D printing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imenpol.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/Polyurethane-materials-for-3D-printing.jpg 800w, https:\/\/imenpol.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/Polyurethane-materials-for-3D-printing-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/imenpol.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/08\/Polyurethane-materials-for-3D-printing-768x1023.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f73436  table-contents e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7f73436\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5654149 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5654149\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<h2>Special features of 3D-printing-grade polyurethane<\/h2>\n<p>Polyurethane made for 3D printing has specific qualities, such as the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Controlled viscosity for even deposition<\/li>\n<li>Controlled hardening time for accurate details<\/li>\n<li>Strong bonding to print surfaces<\/li>\n<li>UV stability for decorative or outdoor applications<\/li>\n<li>Adjustable hardness from very soft (Shore A) to very hard (Shore D)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This combination makes polyurethane foam a high-performance candidate for projects that need both strong structural parts and decorative designs.<\/p>\n\n<h2>The role of robotics and automation in foam-based 3D printing<\/h2>\n<p>Using robots in spray foam printing brings high accuracy and faster production.

It\u2019s used to make:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Large models and prototypes<\/li>\n<li>Decorative pieces with fine details<\/li>\n<li>Stage and exhibition structures<\/li>\n<li>Oversized advertising displays<\/li>\n<li>Architectural models and full-scale mock-ups<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Compared to traditional 3D printing, spray foam printing is:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Faster:<\/strong> Layers harden quickly, so projects finish sooner.<\/li>\n<li><strong>More efficient:<\/strong> Uses only the material needed. Lower material waste through controlled deposition is possible.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scalable:<\/strong> Can make very large objects without huge, expensive printers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h4>Conclusion<\/h4>\n<p><a title=\"Spray polyurethane foam\" href=\"\/blog\/en\/educational\/why-polyurethane-spray-foam-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spray polyurethane foam<\/a> 3D printing, especially with robotic systems, is a somehow new and exciting way to make strong, large, and detailed parts. It\u2019s quick, accurate, and works for both industrial and creative projects. For innovators in architecture, design, and industrial manufacturing, it\u2019s not just a new material, it\u2019s a new way of thinking about what\u2019s possible.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3D printing is no longer a new invention. It has become an important part of modern manufacturing. Companies use it for many purposes, from making test samples (prototypes) to producing finished industrial products. Among the different materials used in 3D printing, polyurethane has gained special attention because of its unique abilities.<br \/>\nSo, why is polyurethane foam, especially the two-part spray type, becoming a popular choice for 3D printing?
