Our materials
ELTIMID
Eltimid is available exclusively from DOTHERM and our sales partners in Germany and Europe.
ELTIMID is used primarily where other high-performance plastics approach their limits. Thanks to its very high dimensional stability – even at high application temperatures – Eltimid can be used in demanding applications.
The material properties open a broad spectrum of applications. Paired with comprehensive chemical resistance, the result is a genuine all-round material. The material's isotropic structure means there are scarcely any limits when it comes to implementing simple to highly complex geometries.
ELTIMID is available as an unfilled as well as a graphite-filled variant. The graphite filling further improves the material’s tribological properties so that it can achieve even better results in sliding applications.

Sample Solutions
Bucks
We produce a range of components and parts for glass manufacturing machines and glass blowing machines, such as bucks, cooling boards, stackers, transverse belts, grippers and levers.
Slide rails
If metallic materials are used for guides or rails, wear due to friction is unavoidable. Slide rails made of DOTHERM materials offer the benefits of excellent friction and sliding properties, high wear resistance and thermal stability.
Gripper fingers
Gripper fingers have component-specific contours at their ends that enable them to pick up, grip, transport or guide components. They are used primarily in electronics manufacturing.
Complex 3D components for thermal insulation
The manner in which these insulation materials are implemented can be as varied as the requirements placed on them: from a simple intermediate layer all the way to complex 3D components with various material combinations that are produced on a 5-axis…
Blank holders
Blank holders serve to hold components securely in position in the application. They are typically held against a surface/contour.
