Self-lubricating printing
Extremely abrasion and wear-resistant tribo-plastics for
additive manufacturing via selective laser sintering (SLS)
or with filament (FDM/FFF) allow you to use the printed
component or to test the function of the part reliably and
completely from the prototype or production stage on.
● Very high abrasion resistance
● Self-lubricating and maintenance-free
● No tool costs
● Design freedom
● 3D printing of parts on site
● Can be processed by commercially available 3D printers
● Predictable service life
Typical application areas
● Special wear-resistant parts
● Jig construction
● Single pieces and small volumes
