March 28, 2024
Stinako, an industrial engineering company based in Maribor, Slovenia, has announced that the Trumpf TruPrint 3000 Additive Manufacturing machine it ordered in November 2023 has now been installed in a newly constructed clean room at the company’s production facility.
Stinako is the first company in Slovenia to offer metal Additive Manufacturing with the TruPrint 3000 from Trumpf, Ditzingen, Germany. It will initially provide aluminium (AlSi10Mg) and stainless steel (316L) Additive Manufacturing services, but states it is open to working with other materials as required.
Stinako, established in 2003, specialises in lifting technology installation, installation of piping systems, power station and boiler maintenance, and component production. The company’s production activity is mainly geared towards the manufacture of pressure vessels and complex pipelines made of stainless materials.
Trumpf’s medium-format TruPrint 3000 uses Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion (PBF-LB) technology to produce parts with a diameter of up to 300 mm and a height of up to 400 mm. The machine features two 700 W lasers at a standard diameter of 80 μm, enabling a build speed of 5-120 cm³/h in layer thicknesses between 20-150 μm.
