    Hi, does anyone have experience with ColorFABB XT HT Clear?

    I need medical grade, transparent and autoclavable matherial.

    @afdent64 ColorFabb XT and ColorFabb HT are two different materials. Neither are autoclave compatible because the temperature is too high and it will cause them to deform. I do not know of a transparent material with a thermal resistance high enough to be used in an autoclave that is compatible with the Robox.

    Please also note that XT and HT do not print water clear. HT can be printed almost transparent but it will depend on your part and settings. XT can be printed close to clear in certain situations. Both materials require a lot of experimentation to get the settings correct to get their best level of transparency.

    Andrea, you wrote, … I need medical grade, transparent and autoclavable matherial.

    The only medical grade autoclavable material that I have seen is this one…

    It says the colour is natural, so that would be “translucent” rather than transparent, but maybe you can contact this supplier and see if they could recommend anything else.
