Raise3D Industrial PA12 CF+ Technical Data Sheet
Raise3D Industrial PA12 CF+ is a carbon fiber-reinforced composite filament based on Polyamide 612 (PA612,Nylon 612). PA612 inherits the best characteristics of both PA6 and PA12, such as toughness and less water
absorption. By adding 15 wt.% short carbon fibers with optimized length distribution, mechanical, thermal
properties and even surface quality of printed part are all enhanced.
Compared with Raise3D Industrial PA12 CF, it exhibits higher strength-to-weight ratio, better interlayer bonding
quality (Z-direction strength) and better dimensional stability. After annealing, thermal and mechanical properties
are improved further. PA12CF+ is an optimal choice for lightweight and strong end-use applications, such as jigs.
fixtures, and many other functional parts in manufacturing, automotive, and aerospace fields.

All specimens were annealed at 80 °C for 12h, and immerged in ambient temperature for 3 days prior totesting.
Note：
1. Dry PA12 CF+ at 80°C for 12 hours before printing, moisture content is crucial for final printed part quality.
2. After drying, we recommend to store PA12 CF+ filaments into Raise3D Filaments Dry Box during theprinting.
3. Abrasion of the brass nozzle happens frequently when printing PA12 CF+. Using abrasion resistancenozzle, such as hardened steel and ruby nozzle, is highly recommended.
4. After the printing, it is recommended to anneal the model in the oven at 80-100°C for 8-12 hours.
5. For a small size model (side length <50 mm), annealing at 80°C for 8 hours is recommended; For a medium-size
model (50mm<side length <150 mm), annealing at 80°C for 12 hours is recommended; For a large size model,100°C for at least 12 hours is recommended.
6. After annealing, max. 0.4% dimensional shrinkage could be observed in Z-axis depending on infill and layer
