HIPS in Production at KES
KES uses HIPS for printing functional parts like tool protectors. This tough material helps prevent injuries during tool handling by protecting workers from pinched fingers and ensuring safe storage. HIPS’ durability and ease of printing make it an ideal choice for manufacturing functional components in the production environment.
Enhancing Filament Production
At Fillamentum, we integrate our high-quality filaments into production. A calibration tray 3D printed from HIPS improved filament production precision, ensuring better ovality. Its durability, resistance to water, and food-contact certification make HIPS an outstanding choice.
