igus South Africa has a low-run parts manufacturing like no other with its 3D printing materials that are strong enough to be used in the toughest conditions.
Unlike standard 3D printing filaments which lack the load capacity or wear resistance required in industrial applications, the new solution uses iglidur 150 and iglidur 190 materials.
These are the same engineered polymers used in igus’s injection-moulded plain bearings and other parts.
As a result, customers get the same benefits including low friction, dry-running operation and zero lubrication requirements but with the flexibility of custom geometries and rapid prototyping.
