PLASTIC SOLUTIONS FOR THE INDUSTRIAL SECTOR
High-performance polymers for metal replacement in industrial applications.
The industrial machinery sector is traditionally oriented towards the use of steel and, in general, metal alloys, due to their high mechanical strength and excellent performance. However, replacing metals with polymers is becoming increasingly common due to their many advantages, including lightness, high mechanical resistance, self-lubrication, excellent frictional properties, wear resistance and machinability.
