Nylon is stronger and more durable than PLA or ABS. It has high impact and abrasion resistance and very low friction. It’s flexible and bendy when printed thin, yet robust and solid when printed thick. Perhaps its best characteristic however is its impressive dimensional stability: it maintains shape when exposed

Without stock-feeding capabilities, CNC lathes cannot automate part production. The solution is bar pullers, which advance parts along the production line. The way it works is simple. The puller presses onto the remaining stock after the part is finished and a powered chuck moves it along. The chuck is then
