3D Printer Hand Tools

A pair of precision tools that include an ultra needle nose pliers and a flush cutter for trimming filament and removing support material from 3D printed parts have been introduced by Xuron Corp.

Xuron 3D Printer Hand Tools are suitable for trimming filament and removing post printed support struts. The two tools include the Model 450 Tweezer-Nose Plier, which has precise tips capable of holding a human hair, and the Model 170-II Micro-Shear Flush Cutter, which produces a clean, square cut using shear action for trimming filament and cleaning up printed parts.

Made from alloyed steel and hardened for high reliability and long life, the hand tools have a glare-eliminating black finish to be easy on the eyes and feature contoured, nonslip soft rubber grips and a Light Touch return spring. The Model 170-II cutter has an angled head and the Tweezer-Nose Plier has precision tips to hold the thinnest parts.
