Use case

Cover for emergency brake pull box

Protective shell behind the emergency brake lever in the entrance of IC2000 double-deck trains. It is made of Ultem 9085 from Stratasys. Thanks to the paint, the texture provided by the 3D printing is invisible and the piece blends into the environment. The biggest challenge was to meet the fire protection standard (EN 45545-2).

3D printing is used here to manufacture the few replacement parts needed.

On the left, the original part. On the right, the 3D-printed part.
