3D_Silicones_Printer
The new 3D process of Munich-based WACKER operates with extreme precision. The printer robot produces structures with a line width of 0.6 millimeters. The silicone is placed drop by drop, and is immediately firm after application. That enables extremely precise contours to be produced.

Dr. Bernd Pachaly, head of silicones R&D at WACKER, and lab technician Stefanie Schuster developed new formulations for 3D printing in less than a year. The silicone not only needs to be color-fast and free of bubbles, but also has to have suitable flow properties.

The WACKER 3D process works like an ink-jet printer: the nozzle deposits a drop of silicone precisely at the point determined by the computer program (images 4a and 4b), generating a molded three-dimensional silicone part layer by layer from the virtual drawing (images 4c and 4d).
