Quiet printing
High running performance, lubrication-free and robust: these are the requirements that are imposed on linear components in 3D printers. In the first series-production printers of Kühling&Kühling, a company based in Kiel Germany, the appropriate special products from igus® must also be able to withstand high accelerations and temperatures of up to 80°C. In this application, high-performance polymers that make the guides fast and quiet, ensure reliable production processes and high-quality end products. The cost-effective and easy-to-install printers from Northern Germany are already proving themselves in many customer applications around the world.
