PROTOtex
Innovative 3D printing technology for pre-visualisation
We develop aesthetic and functional surfaces with cutting-edge graphics processing and can present them in plastic using 3D printing technology in a wide colour palette. Surface textures developed in a 3D printing process can also be transferred to components with a high degree of reproducibility with Eschmann Textures PROTOtex prototype modelling.
For our customers this means a significant shortening of the decision-making process. Depending on the respective requirements for tool geometry and design, the appropriate technology can be selected for subsequent tool processing.
PROTOtex at a glance
- Virtually any design can be presented, even in multi-colour
- The texture can be transferred in 3D printing to any material, e.g. plastic or glass
- Can be combined with our Cera-Shibo technology to flexibly produce plastic injection moulding tools for applications which are close to series production
- Worldwide unique process, providing a cost-effective way of bringing together colour and texture in one tool
- 3D textures can be applied to flexible, self-adhesive decorative carriers
- Ideal for the production of small batch series of 50 to 100 for sampling, trade shows or presentations
- Especially suitable for use in blow moulding as well as in injection moulding with PP-based substrates
