Jo WardI have used the torcCrafting material, a unique resuable flexible low melt crafting compound for a few years.
The product is a great medium for traditional crafting but in filament form can be used in 3d printing.
Our Supporters
From the start of the torc journey we have been given invaluable support from the following
Dr Zuoxin Zhou, Research Fellow, Engineering Materials
“I am very pleased to tell you that 3D structures were successfully printed today using your material, and with good quality. Your material is definitely processable using our modified FDM technology. And to be honest, it is the most straightforward material I have ever tried in our equipment”
Steve Cooke, Consultant, Orthopaedics
“Using torc material, which can be fully customised on the patient, will revolutionise orthotic care”
