About this material

Luvocom 3F PEKK 50082: 255 °C continuously, and it shrinks evenly.

Luvocom 3F PEKK 50082 NT is a modified neat polyetherketoneketone, a semi-crystalline thermoplastic from the same polyaryletherketone family as PEEK. It sits at the very top of our catalogue and was specially optimised for industrial 3D printing.

Its thermal envelope is where it earns that place: continuous service at 255 °C, and up to 300 °C for a total of two hundred hours across the life of the part. It is non-flammable with a UL 94 V-0 classification. It also resists chemicals, withstands high mechanical loads and has unique tribological properties.

The property worth knowing about is the shrinkage. It is isotropic, meaning the part contracts by the same proportion in every direction rather than pulling harder along one axis. On a large or a precise part that is the difference between a predictable result and a warped one.

It is the more forgiving material in this tier. Its crystallisation rate is tuneable, which lets it print more easily than regular PEEK with better layer adhesion at comparable strength and resistance, and it runs in a non-heated chamber while still delivering semi-crystalline parts without warp. Its glass transition sits 15 °C above that of PEEK. It still needs an industrial machine and a drying step.

Printer settings & data sheets

A top-tier polymer with a drying step that decides the print.

Print at 340 to 380 °C, with 360 °C as the recommended starting point, on a bed between 110 and 140 °C. Use Magigoo HT on a carbon fibre plate or a PEI sheet.

Dry it first.

Drying is mandatory and it is the real failure point on this material: four hours at 110 °C before you print.

Measurements & tolerance

Precision-engineered consistency.

Consistent prints start with a uniform filament shape. We continuously monitor diameter and roundness during production. When filament varies in size or loses its round profile, material flow becomes erratic. This causes under-extrusion and weak layer bonds.

Our manufacturing process keeps the cross-section stable across the full spool. Your printer receives a steady volume of material without pressure drops in the nozzle. You get predictable extrusion on every job, so with Luvocom® 3F PEKK 50082 NT you can focus on your design, not your material.

The production process

Sealed at the source. Never touched by water.*

Unlike manufacturers who cool filament in a water bath, our filament never touches water during production. Moisture inside the material creates bubbles and weakens layer bonding during printing. Water-free production keeps extrusion consistent and bubble-free.

Sealed and ready to print.
We produce on demand. Every spool is vacuum-sealed immediately after extrusion, so it reaches you dry. This process keeps every spool of Luvocom® 3F PEKK 50082 NT ready to print out of the box.

* At times of high demand, and for some variants, production may run on a conventional water-cooled line. Contact us before ordering if you require material produced with our water-free process.

Vacuum-sealed filament spool, straight off the extrusion line

Vacuum-sealed on the production line, before it ever leaves the machine.

Traceability & quality assurance

Precision you can track. From pellet to part.

We produce every spool on demand in our own facility. This gives us direct oversight that mass-produced stock lacks. Your spool comes from a fresh, identifiable batch rather than long-term warehouse inventory. We document the production trail for every run.

Documented, not just shipped.
We keep the production logs for every batch we make. On request, we link a Certificate of Analysis and Technical Data Sheet to your specific batch. You get clear data for your spool of Luvocom® 3F PEKK 50082 NT.

About 3D4M

Dutch engineering for parts that define the future.

At 3D4M, we develop and manufacture high-performance thermoplastic filaments for demanding applications across aerospace, defence, semiconductor, automotive, medical research, and industrial manufacturing. We work with engineers, researchers, and manufacturers who need materials that go beyond standard specifications.

Our engineering starts with the machines themselves. We design and build our own extrusion lines around our patented extrusion process, combining material expertise with technology developed in-house. For moisture-sensitive polymers, our air-cooling technology offers a water-free cooling option, allowing us to tailor the production process to the material.

Our production facility is built on a single, uncompromising principle: control. From our extrusion technology to precise diameter monitoring and vacuum-sealed packaging, we control every stage to deliver consistent filament with batch traceability.

Trusted by global leaders
Supporting over 100 universities alongside global industry leaders, we have become a trusted partner to advanced research labs and manufacturers worldwide. We bring together material expertise and Dutch engineering to help turn ambitious ideas into reliable, high-performance parts.
