New Tribo-plastic Filament From Igus
It seems like the market for unique, innovative filament is heating up here lately. A German company called Igus has just unveiled a new type of filament for 3d printers which they call Tribo-plastic Filament .
Igus claims that the new filament is great for printing out bearings, and other objects which will have a lot of friction on them. The new tribo-plastic is very resistant to abrasion when compared with traditional PLA and ABS printer filament, up to 50 times more resistant actually, according to their internal tests.
Here is a video of some of the bearings which are self lubricated which Igus produces.
