I really liked the washer test and I agree with you Igor, it needs more revolutions; possibly even past 2-3X the turns you've made (6-10 turns). That was a great idea for testing. For soft/elastic materials, I would also like to see the squish and spring-back of the materials, in Sudden Force (Shock). Like bump-stops in suspension, at the end of travel. You can do this by printing a disc of the material, dropping a known mass object onto it; and as a backdrop of you filming it, you can have a lined chart with distances to measure (like you do for the hammer swing test). Measuring how high the dropped object bounces back -> how much of that shock is Absorbed into the material. I have no interest in 3D printing, but I can't stop watching your videos You're doing Great Work. 👍

There is a lot of great data there. Thanks for doing these. For soft rubbers, especially when designing vibration mounts and shock absorbing systems (dynamic systems), the vertical rebound test will test the material resilience (ASTM D3574-17 or D2632-14 or DIN 53512-2000 all test the same thing). You may even be able to use your Charpy impact tester to do this test but I just do the ball drop test because it is so simple. The resilience gives you a good indication of the internal losses during vibration which helps to damp out vibration. It also tells you how well a ball will bounce when you drop it.

Great video! very creative way to test TPU! One test that occurs to me is to stretch a sample a given amount and see how much it recovers, independently of the load needed to stretch it... lets say a 100mm sample you stretch it to 200mm and release and see if goes back to 100... maybe 130 and such. I am super eager to see the PA tests!! keep it up! :)

HF seems interesting since normal TPU needs to be printed so slowly, even my Bambu Lab X1C feels slow if I want nice results. I recently bought a very interesting flexible filament: Extrudr TPU Hard with a shore-rate of 58D, which is far stiffer than 95A and even 98A which they call 'medium'. It really delivered what I was expecting: Almost as structural solid as normal filaments even with low infill, but still TPU and flexible. I needed grips for my sim-racing wheel and TPU 95A was too soft with 40%% infill and several layers, but with more infill it prints forever and adds quite some weight. I choosed PETG with low infill, but want more dampening. I think there is a bigger market for this kind of hybrid-filaments, but only Extrudr seems to offer this shore-rates. But despite the hardness it didn't like to be printed fast on the surface.

Can you run that 58D through the AMS?
@Leynad778

@@Eric_Wolfe-Schulte Not really. First it works without hassle, but than it got stucked after a few prints. The filament itself doesn't feel hard before printing, so not that different to 95A, that also doesn't work. I bought a dry box that stays next to the Bambu to print TPU and no problem feeding it directly. But seems it's necessary to unplug the AMS before.

why didnt they include hardness scale in the name. i get my filament from manufacturer that labels them accordingly to scale. so at home i have 40D and 90A TPU. and i print them both at 100mm\s on my NF Sunrise

Many interesting tests. Nicely done. But here's the thing. I just want to make a protective case for my cell phone. Which one offers better protection for a drop from waist height? I'm assuming the 90A because its softer (and in theory absorbs more of the shock). But I'm not sure about that... Would that be right? Thanks for posting this.

Amazing testing as always! Very interesting to see :) I do have a suggestion for another test that could be very useful for TPU, the friction. These filaments could be useful for printing wheels or phone cases and in both of those scenarios it's useful to know how much effort it will take for them to slide.

Here’s an idea. Cheetah in my experience has perfect layer adhesion. Why not make a CF/GF TPU? Better bridging and probably as stiff as PETG. But applications where your part needs to be semi-stiff and withstand constant shock May find some use for it.
