Technical plastic parts: From the material to the processing to the component design
Highly stressed plastic parts can be found in a wide variety of applications. From medical technology to the energy industry to the automotive industry. In surgery in the form of breast spreaders and in the field of diagnostics in the form of endoscopic handles; in wind turbines in ball bearing cages and in cars in brake boosters or exhaust gas recirculation valves. As different as the demands may be – they all have an extremely high requirement profile in common. Characterized by high temperatures, mechanical/dynamic loads, the highest demands on strength, impact strength and/or rigidity. How do plastic parts ensure this? How technical plastics or high-performance plastics help to keep people healthy or technical systems running day and night or enable them to perform at their best? You can find the answers here.
