Polyamide processing
Printing eyewear for end use
3D printing offers a number of advantages, such as freedom in design and the sustainability aspect. We prefer the SLS process to create strong and functional frames. We use a powerful laser to sinter the polyamide, which does not require any support structures as the various parts are sufficiently supported by the surrounding powder bed. This approach is particularly suitable for very complex shapes with various details.
We are particularly proud that we have found solutions for processing even the finest and most intricate parts. We not only grind the surface, but can also dye it in a wide range of colors. If the parts require special protection, we can also protect them from environmental influences using special coatings.
If you already use a 3D printer in your company to produce your frames, we can support you as a second source or in the event of a very large rush.
The process steps of polyamide processing
Vibratory grinding
In the first process step, the workpieces are vibratory ground. This gives the printed frames a very smooth surface.
Thanks to the special customizing of our systems, we are also able to process very small and delicate workpieces without damaging the shape or surface.
Blasting
By blasting your polyamide frames, we achieve a particularly attractive surface.
The colors become more brilliant and the surface becomes denser, which also significantly improves the feel of the workpieces.
Dyeing
We dye your polyamide frames in the desired color. The color penetrates into the workpiece and does not just lie on top, which has the advantage that the frames retain their color brilliance over a long period of time.
You are welcome to choose from our range of colors or we can sample your individual color.
Hydrophobizing
We hydrophobize your polyamide workpieces to make them less sensitive to environmental influences.
Naturally, we only use agents that have passed all the necessary tests in terms of skin compatibility.
Packaging and shipping
On request, we are also happy to take over the packaging of your frames and then send them on their way to dispatch.
We can store your goods in our depots, prepare them for shipping and, if required, send them to your customers.
