KraussMaffei at K 2022: world premiere of technology for additive manufacturing

Additive manufacturing for industrial use is one of the key innovations from KraussMaffei on display at the K Show. powerPrint and precisionPrint open up new applications for additive manufacturing with plastic granulate and resin-based 3D printing materials respectively, along the plastic components value chain. For modern plastics processors, but also for users from other industries such as medical technology, the construction industry and the foundry industry, this creates new market opportunities.

KraussMaffei CEO Dr. Michael Ruf explains: “KraussMaffei is opening up additive manufacturing technology for industrial production. Using our expertise gleaned from series production of plastic parts, we are designing efficient system concepts and appropriate solutions for every component, regardless of the technology. For us, this is about taking our capacity for productivity, quality and efficiency in industrial plastics processing and applying it to additive manufacturing solutions.”

powerPrint is an extruder-based system for processing thermoplastic granulates. For large-format additive manufacturing up to 10 m³, it is the reliable and fast industrial solution, enabling efficient production of near-net-shape components.

With precisionPrint, KraussMaffei presents a high-performance SL (stereolithography) solution, suitable for industrial-scale automated production. It is a manufacturing solution with high output rates for the cost-efficient production of plastic parts meeting the highest requirements for surface quality and detail resolution. The highly automated system uses printing resins cured by laser.
