High-quality polyamides from DK Kunststoff-Service as a metal replacement in agricultural machinery

Anyone who only thinks of lightweight construction in the automotive industry as a metal substitute is mistaken. High-quality polyamides (PA) and thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPU) are used in more and more applications in numerous industries. Agricultural machinery technology is a success story. Due to the constantly increasing demands due to speed, environmental influences, weight and continuous load, more and more components are being implemented in plastic. Dynamically highly stressed components such as seed housings, roller bandages or sorting fingers for potato harvesters are just a few examples of the use of plastic in the agricultural sector.
