Array really automates 3D printing by making it a hands off procedure, I can send a print from my computer at home and not have to come into the office at 9pm – the parts are just sitting there ready for me the next day.
Connor Reddington, Avid (a Lubrizol Company)
Students at all levels of education should have access to an Array. It is essential if we’re encouraging STEM education, design engineering thinking, prototyping, iteration – students should have a reliable 3D printer to make parts in the volumes they need.
Cody Soska, Technical Specialist at IDeATe
The ability to develop and produce custom plastic parts at scale, on our factory floor, is great for our business and new client acquisition.

Everything You Need to Know
Mosaic FR-PC prints best with proper bed preparation and a heated chamber to improve layer adhesion and part stability. Pre-drying the material helps ensure consistent extrusion and surface quality. Its toughness, heat resistance, and flame-retardant properties make it well suited for functional and structural parts in demanding environments.

Mosaic FR-PC is formulated with a flame-retardant polycarbonate blend that meets UL 94 V-0 standards, self-extinguishing quickly without dripping flaming material. This makes it suitable for electrical, aerospace, industrial, and other safety-critical applications.
Yes. Mosaic FR-PC is moderately moisture-sensitive and should be dried before printing to ensure consistent extrusion, good layer adhesion, and a smooth surface finish. Proper storage in a sealed or actively dried environment is also recommended.
FR-PC is one of Mosaic’s most thermally capable materials. It maintains rigidity and structural integrity under prolonged high-temperature conditions.
FR-PC offers moderate UV resistance, typical of polycarbonate materials. It performs well in industrial settings but may require a UV-stable coating or paint for long-term outdoor exposure or direct sunlight.
