Additive Manufacturing igus Polymer

iglidur I3 SLS powder, a tribo-polymer material created by selective laser sintering, includes those qualities and is frequently used in vehicle interiors.

igus iglidur i33D print material manufactured by igus, iglidur I3, is extremely abrasion-resistant and passed a fire test in accordance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 302. The iglidur I3 SLS powder, a tribo-polymer material created by selective laser sintering, includes those qualities and is frequently used in vehicle interiors. The material has now passed the fire test in accordance with FMVSS 302. Besides its fire-resistant qualities, iglidur I3 components are abrasion resistant and readily available. Components achieve high abrasion resistance due to the pressure in the SLS process. In laser sintering, virtually no reworking of the finished parts is necessary, and they can be used directly, in prototyping and in batch production.
