Capabilities — shafts, rollers and large-scale

Capabilities

We coat shafts and rollers with food-grade HDPE and also print large parts in HDPE and PP, with post-milling in the same setup.

SHAFTS & ROLLERS

Food-grade HDPE coating of shafts and rollers

We robot-print food-grade HDPE (blue), HDPE or PP directly onto your shaft or roller and mill the layer to size in the same cell. New or as a recoat of a worn roller. Suited for dough rollers in food, conveyor rollers, guide and tension rollers, or a complete plastic shaft.

Diameter

up to Ø600 mm

Length

up to 3500 mm, larger on request

Capacity and lead time

approx. 20 shafts per week, 3-week lead time

LARGE-SCALE PRINTING

Robotic large-scale 3D printing

An industrial robot arm with a granulate extruder builds parts layer by layer up to 4 × 4 × 8 metres. No bed-size limits, no welded seams in the final piece.

Build envelope

4 × 4 × 8 m

Process

FGF (Fused Granulate Fabrication)

Materials

HDPE, PP, food-grade HDPE

MILL

Subtractive post-milling

The same robot switches to a milling head and finishes the printed part for clean surfaces, sharp edges, and mating faces to tolerance. No round-trip to a separate CNC machine.

Tolerance

to ±0.2 mm

Use

Mating faces, mounting points, decorative finish
