UAV (Unmanned Aircraft Vehicle)

The Lumia.X1, paired with LOCTITE® 3D 3843 Matte Black, enables the production of durable, functional components for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). UAV applications require parts that combine mechanical strength, impact resistance, dimensional accuracy, and low weight. LOCTITE 3D 3843 offers a useful combination of tensile strength, flexibility, and impact resistance, making it suitable for housings, protective covers, mounting brackets, cable guides, and other functional drone components. Combined with Axtra3D’s Hi-Speed SLA and TruLayer technology, the Lumia.X1 enables rapid production of complex geometries with excellent surface quality and repeatability.

High Impact Resistance

With a notched Izod impact strength of 53 J/m and 43% elongation at break, the material can absorb impacts and accommodate mechanical stress. This is valuable for protective housings, guards, and components exposed to vibration or handling.

Strength and Structural Integrity

Delivers 51 MPa tensile strength and a flexural modulus of 1,783 MPa, supporting functional brackets, mounting systems, arms, and mechanical assemblies.

Lightweight, Functional Components

With a density of 1.18 g/cm³, the material supports the production of lightweight housings and complex geometries. Design optimization can further reduce component weight.

Thermal and Environmental Performance

Offers a heat deflection temperature of 63°C at 0.455 MPa. Henkel has also conducted accelerated UV weathering tests. Outdoor performance should be validated under actual operating conditions.
