Industrial components made of plastic materials A high-performance, sustainable alternative
In an ever-changing industrial environment, more and more companies are turning to alternatives to optimise their performance and equipment and reduce their production costs. How? By replacing certain metal parts with plastic materials. This is a real opportunity, especially if your current equipment is causing you problems with weight, corrosion or maintenance. Let's find out what advantages our solutions can offer you.
Why replace metal with plastic?
The limitations of metal parts
Although metal parts are strong and have been tried and tested over many years, they do have some disadvantages:
- They are heavy, which affects energy consumption and equipment manoeuvrability.
- Corrosion and wear and tear result in high maintenance costs.
- Complex machining and assembly, which lengthens production times.
Plastics: an opportunity
Improved overall performance, reduced costs, simplified maintenance: plastic parts offer you many advantages:
- Lightweight
- Increased resistance to corrosion, chemicals, UV rays and humidity.
- Thermal and electrical insulation, while reducing noise and vibration.
- Faster manufacturing process
- Design flexibility, freedom of design and integration of multiple functions.
Technical, economic and environmental benefits
Opting for plastic components also means responding to the challenges of competitiveness and sustainability. Reduce your manufacturing and maintenance costs with faster processes, fewer assemblies and better traceability! What's more, plastics are a sustainable innovation, with recyclable materials and a reduced carbon footprint. With these solutions, you can significantly improve the overall performance of your machinery and equipment.
