Welcome to the Hyrel Wiki.
Printers
As of Jan, 2016, Hyrel Printers are available in two models: Engines and Systems.
- Engines are open-air models. Detailed information is on the Engines page.
- Systems are enclosed models. Detailed information is on the Systems page.
Filaments, Heads and Flow
We break down our deposition methods based on temperature, as follows:
Cold Flow
Cold Flow means fluid (non-filament-based) materials which are deposited at room temperature, with or without UV Crosslinking.
Materials, Cold Flow
- 3P Quick Cure Clay
- Adhesives
- Clay
- Epoxy, Two-part
- Fimo
- Glue
- Kato
- Metal Clay, including Precious Metal Clay (PMC)
- Modeling Clay
- PEG
- Porcelain
- Plasticine
- Play-Doh
- Resins
- RTV Silicone
- Sculpey
- Sugru
Heads, Cold Flow
| Head | Container | Capacity | Nozzle | UV Crosslinking |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EMO-25 | Aluminum | 25cc | 1.5mm, 2.0mm, Luer | No |
| COD-25 | Aluminum | 25cc | Luer | Yes |
| SDS-5 | Syringe | 05cc | Luer | No |

Warm Flow
Warm Flow means fluid (non-filament-based) materials which are deposited at up to 100°C, with or without UV Crosslinking.
Materials, Warm Flow
Note that some materials (like Fimo, Plasticine and Sculpey) flow more freely when slightly above room temperature, and perhaps too freely at higher temperatures.
