Why injection moulding tools from the 3D printer?

Dirk Zacharias | 2. August 2019

With the aid of 3D printing, injection moulds can be manufactured at up to 80% lower costs. As a result, 3D-printed moulds are particularly interesting for small batches and samples, and can be commissioned for a quantity of 1 or more. The complete iglidur range of 50 materials is available for the maintenance-free plastic plain […]

In many places where bearings are used in the agricultural area, large forces as well as impacts and shocks have an effect. Especially robust and durable iglidur materials such as iglidur G or iglidur M250 are particularly suitable […]

Can I ream an iglidur plain bearing at some later date in order to increase or calibrate the diameter?

Lars Butenschön | 9. July 2019

Reaming or increasing the hole size of iglidur plain bearings is possible without further ado, and can even have a positive effect on the running-in phase – the frictional properties when the component is in a new condition. Materials with a high fibre content, however, can become rougher or frayed during machining. You can find more […]
