Advancing Wear Resistance: How Nylon CF Slide Transforms Industrial 3D Printing

Gain free access to Advancing Wear Resistance: How Nylon CF Slide Transforms Industrial 3D Printing

In demanding industrial environments where components face constant friction and repetitive motion, material performance is critical. While POM has been a long-standing choice for its wear resistance, today’s manufacturers are under increasing pressure to improve flexibility, reduce waste, and comply with evolving environmental regulations.

That’s where UltiMaker’s Nylon CF Slide comes in—a carbon fiber-reinforced, PFAS-free 3D printing filament engineered for sliding applications. Paired with the new UltiMaker S8, it offers a high-performance, sustainable alternative to traditional materials like POM—unlocking faster part replacement, reduced tooling costs, and greater adaptability in automated production systems.
