Introducing our new divisionWe have set ourselves the goal of making direct extrusion more attractive for industry through configurable, high-quality systems. What makes our WEBER Additive machines different?

01 | The manufacturing technology“Direct extrusion” with pellets |
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:

02 | PartnershipsResearch & 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. Our press release at 3dprintingindustry.com: Hans Weber Maschinenfabrik to launch large scale 3D printer supported by Ai Build
Colossus supports customers looking for turnkey solutions for their projects. Weber Additive cooperates with Colossus in the development and production of printing systems that are easy to transport.
The company Reichenbacher Hamuel GmbH is known for its 5-axis portal milling machines for plastics, wood and metal processing. Together we develop system solutions for hybrid production, where plastic components with high surface quality and tight tolerances are required.
We are the industrial partner to the IPH Institute (Integrierte Produktion Hannover) on the “Quali3D” research project - optical quality testing for extrusion 3D print. You can find further information about the project here: www.quali3d.iph-hannover.de |
