Arburg presents advanced 3D printing solutions at Fakuma 2024

At Fakuma 2024, Arburg (Hall A3, Stand 3101) will be demonstrating two innovative systems for industrial additive manufacturing that are of particular interest to customers in the injection molding sector. The focus will be on the Freeformer 750-3X in a high-temperature version and the TiQ 2 filament printer, both of which enable specialized applications in the production of functional components and operating materials.

The Freeformer 750-3X processes original plastic pellets and is designed to produce functional components in hard-soft combinations. With a temperature-controlled build chamber of up to 200 degrees Celsius and a plasticizing temperature of up to 450 degrees Celsius, the device is suitable for a wide range of demanding materials that require specific approvals for industries such as medicine, electronics or aerospace. The installation space of 750 square centimetres enables the production of complex geometries, supported by three discharge units that facilitate the use of support materials and the realization of functional connections.

The TiQ 2, on the other hand, is aimed at users who are looking for an economical entry into additive manufacturing. This device uses the Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) process to process fiber-reinforced filaments to create resilient suction pads and mechanical grippers. The TiQ 2’s open material system enables cost-efficient production of end-of-arm tooling (EAOT) as well as fixtures and equipment, which is particularly advantageous for daily use in industrial environments.

A practical example of the integration of Arburg technology is shown by the company Osko, which produces plant pots from recycled material. The gripping mechanisms are individually adapted using 3D printing, which optimizes the handling of the thin-walled pots and at the same time reduces the weight and costs compared to traditional materials such as aluminium.

Arburg’s additive manufacturing solutions are characterized by optimized data preparation and the specially developed Gestica control system, which ensure process stability and component quality. The accompanying customer portal app “ProcessLog” enables seamless documentation and traceability of each component, which creates transparency and increases production efficiency.

With these technologies, Arburg is positioning itself as a competent provider in the field of industrial additive manufacturing and offers solutions that improve both the flexibility and the quality of its customers’ production processes.
