Ultra-fine Structures for micro precise additive manufactured components

Micro filters made of stainless steel 316 L

With only a few millimeters in diameter, hydraulic filters are the secret stars among the industrial components that are produced using our 3D screen printing technology.

Micro filters are used in hydraulic lines for cars. These specialized emission control filters remove impurities and particles from the emission control fluid, a high-purity urea solution used to reduce nitrogen oxides (NOx) in diesel exhaust.

With several hundred micro channels in a minute area (3.5 x 3.5 x 0.55 mm), they ensure that the fluid is reliably filtered in the long term. The filters are made of stainless steel 316 L with a material density of 98.5 %.

Benefits of Exentis 3D screen printing technology

No other manufacturing technology can produce such fine channels with this high quality. Traditionally manufactured filters made of mesh may fray and fail to
filter the smallest particles.

By incorporating these filters, vehicle manufacturers protect Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) components, extend their lifespan, and maintain effective emissions reduction.

Collimators

Collimators are used in modern computer tomographs or as optical filters, for example.

At first glance, they look as if they are made of solid material – but they are not. Their interior is absolutely high-tech.

Benefits of Exentis 3D screen printing technology

Using our technology, micro precise structures of 50 micrometers can be produced. This enables efficient filtering and alignment of the X-rays and therefore significantly improves image resolution.

No other technology can do this.
