Introducing our new division

The purpose of the  WEBER Additive division is to develop and sell additive manufacturing equipment.

What makes our WEBER Additive machines different?

  • Plastification of synthetic granules using high-quality WEBER extruders from the AE series
  • Adaptable machine concepts (portal and robot systems) for the large scale printing of plastic components
  • Open material system
  • Comprehensive technical support
  • Premium industrial quality, lifelong service, made in Germany

The manufacturing technology

“Direct extrusion” with granules

In contrast to conventional manufacturing processes, additive manufacturing involves adding material. Complex or internal textures can thus be manufactured very easily, but also very consistently. Another advantage of additive manufacturing is its high level of flexibility, which means it can be used to create products that would not be possible with conventional manufacturing processes.

“Direct extrusion” involves building components up layer by layer from plastified granules. The fact that filaments are not used has several advantages:

  • a WEBER single screw extruder can be used to process highly-filled, fibre-reinforced or even soft materials
  • The high output of the extruder enables faster printing, especially for large-volume components
  • Because of the way filament is manufactured, the material is much more cost-effective in granule form
  • Material can be fed from silos without interruption
  • Various colours and customer-specific material blends are cost-effective and quick to produce

    Partnerships

    Reaching goals together - Research & Development

    We are looking for other companies and research facilities from different fields who would be interested in promoting additive manufacturing using synthetic granules with us.

    Our machinery can be used for research projects and further developed with innovative partners. Through industrial partnerships and collaboration we can guarantee rapid technological progress and customer-oriented development.

     

    AiBuild Ltd. is our innovative development partner for data preparation, control and monitoring of the printing process.
