Clean printing
This 3D printer was constructed with almost
no ready-made components. Even the linear
guides were designed by the company itself,
so that they do justice to the requirements of
3D printers. In other words, they have to be
resilient, precise and wear-resistant In addition,
no lubricant should be used near the printing
bed otherwise the filament will become
soiled. The design engineers found the most
effective solution to be the use of iglidur®
J plain bearings and the drylin® product family
from igus. These fulfilled the given specifications
best and allowed the fast and successful
implementation of the design.
