Endurance test: dichtol AM Macro proves itself in practice

test report dichtol AM Makro

In additive manufacturing, one problem keeps cropping up:
A printed vase made of PLA, for example, may look impressive, but the first water test quickly reveals that it is not waterproof.

Can 3D-printed components really be made waterproof?

Our answer: Yes, with dichtol!

The team at 3DDRUCK.LIFE put our product dichtol AM Makro through its paces in a detailed practical test. Various materials – from PLA to aluminium – were tested, as were different application methods:

  • Brushing
  • Dipping
  • Spraying
  • Injecting

The test results impressively demonstrate that 3D-printed components can be reliably sealed with the right sealant. This opens up completely new applications – from functional prototypes to industrial applications.

Experience it live at Formnext 2025
If you would like to see dichtol in action, you will have the opportunity to do so at Formnext 2025 in Frankfurt (18–21 November). Visit us in Hall 12.1, Stand D52.

We would like to thank 3DDRUCK.LIFE for the practical test and the exciting insights into the application of dichtol in additive manufacturing!
