    Product Information

    CHEMFAB® Low Friction Linings for Printers

    Energy consumption has increasingly become a priority within the electronics' market, and reducing power consumption is one of the challenges for design engineers. Used as printer components, CHEMFAB low friction linings act as a linear glide bearing within high speed, high productivity printers. They facilitate consistently-smooth movement of the paper over many thousands of cycles by reducing the frictional force required. Compatible with any lubricants used in the machine, CHEMFAB low friction linings remain stable in contacts with a heat source (up to 180°C / 356°F). Their performance and wear properties are consistent even at elevated temperatures over millions of cycles.

    Component Information

    CHEMFAB® Release Solutions for Printers

    CHEMAB ptfe coated low friction linings work as release solutions for printers
    Zoom Diagram

     

    CHEMFAB components provide significant advantages by reducing the friction and power needed to move the paper sheets over the ink-fusing zone over many thousands of cycles. Frictional properties are optimized by engineering surface characteristics to ensure the lowest coefficient of friction and an easy slide surface. In addition to compatibility with any lubricants on the machine, the temperature resistance and stability of the PTFE lining is critical and means that wear properties remain consistent even at elevated temperatures (up to 356°F / 180°C). Due to the industrial scale of use, reliable wear resistance and consistent long-term performance over millions of cycles are also critical which is why a CHEMFAB Low Friction Linings have been chosen here.
