Forming shoulders in 3D printing

3D printing also opens up interesting possibilities for the production of forming shoulders                            

2C-forming shoulders (two components) consist of a 3D-printed body made of highly wear-resistant plastic and a stainless-steel insert that forms the forming edge. The combination of materials and manufacturing processes makes the difference:

  • short delivery time
  • proven forming geometry
  • reduced weight
  • can be used for all applications including food packaging

Examples:

Round forming shoulder                                                                                                   

 

Rectangular forming shoulder
