3D printing service for wear-resistant special parts in 1-3 days
This is how the 3D printing service from igus works:
In 3D printing, components are first designed as a digital 3D model and then additively manufactured layer by layer. The 3D printing service from igus supplies components made from our own wear-resistant plastics with no minimum order quantity. We offer solutions specifically for applications in motion where conventional materials quickly reach their limits - our plastics are up to 50 times more wear-resistant than regular 3D printing plastics. Simply upload the CAD model of your component online and receive it printed in the desired quantity.
Don't have a CAD model at hand?
With our CAD configurator, you can easily create a 3D model for various designs. We also offer you planning security with our Long Life Calculator, which can predict the expected service life of each individual component online.
Test material quality free of charge!
With our 3D printing sample box, you can see the quality of our 3D printing for yourself. In this sample box, you will find a selection of our products created using various additive manufacturing processes.
The sample box also contains a leaflet with all the key information about our 3D printing processes.

Which types can be realised in the 3D printing service?
The 3D printing service from igus produces customised components of all kinds. Thanks to the freedom of geometry in additive manufacturing, there are no limits to a part's type. We print plain bearings, toothed belt discs, gears, worm wheels and grippers, among other things.
Who is our 3D printing service suitable for?
3D printing offers the ideal solution to many key problems. Find out more here about the typical challenges that igus’ 3D printing service can tackle. Does your application have specific requirements? Then you are welcome to discuss the solution directly with an igus expert.
Component broken and a spare part is difficult to obtain?
A spare part can save the machine! Find out how Conti Tech Schlauch GmbH was able to cost-effectively replace a defective cross-threaded spindle using our 3D printing service.
Do you need to deliver individual components or small batches quickly?
A small missing component can cost a lot of money. With 3D-printed linear drives, which were delivered in a very short time, Thyssenkrupp prevented this. Find out more here!
Does the application require lightweight construction or lubrication-free components?
A metal gearbox may be too heavy for the desired movement. It also requires additional lubrication, which is not permitted in some environments. Cor.Sync solved both problems with us! How?
Special geometry of the component only achievable at high cost?
Once the perfect design for a component has been found, it must not fail due to the manufacturing process. Discover how the Zurich University of Applied Sciences realised its creative project with our 3D printing service!

Post-processing and finishing options
Components manufactured using the SLS process can be subsequently smoothed, coloured or mechanically reworked for an additional charge. Mechanical rework can include, for example, the insertion of threads or thread inserts as well as the production of components with tight tolerances.
