Several years ago Adtech started working with universities and individuals as part to the ‘Rep Rap’ project to build your own 3D printer. Since then we have supplied PTFE tubing for this project at reduced prices and without stipulating the usual minimum order values.
The 3D printer market is expanding rapidly, and we are now working with more and more manufacturers of 3D printers within the UK and Europe.
Our PTFE tube has excellent low coefficient friction properties and therefore, is essential for the smooth flow of the plastic filament into the machine ready for printing.
We can offer custom pre-formed coils made from our PTFE tube. This has led to the improvement of our current customer’s designs, especially with the recent trend for more compact printers designed for the domestic market.
