Built for extreme conditions: in modern production, 3D-printed components withstand high forces and harsh environmental conditions. Clever design and careful selection of materials can reduce costs, cut delivery times and save on tools in many areas. The experts at Niedersachsen ADDITIV demonstrate how this is achieved through best-practice examples with companies from Lower Saxony.
Components made from reinforced plastics can replace conventionally machined metal parts while offering significantly lower weight and shorter development cycles. Strategically placed continuous fibers provide maximum strength exactly where your application needs it. Glass bead-reinforced resins, on the other hand, offer high strength in all layers, and possess smooth surfaces and high dimensional accuracy. For applications where thermal conductivity of metal is critical, our booth is also worth a visit: Here we demonstrate intricate copper processing using specialized laser technology.
Success depends on process-appropriate implementation. This is precisely where Niedersachsen ADDITIV provides support: We analyze requirements, optimize designs, and manufacture prototypes. The result of our collaboration is a reliable decision-making foundation for your application. Small and medium-sized enterprises in Lower Saxony benefit from our expertise free of charge.
