<p>The invention provides a building block (290, 280) for a mechanical construction. The invention further provides a bearing (200), an actuator system, a gear box and a method of producing the building block. The building block comprises a first printed material (210) printed via an additive manufacturing process on or at least partially embedded in a second material (260). The first printed material comprises magnetic particles and is printed in a pattern (212). The pattern may be configured and constructed for guiding, in use, magnetic lubricant material, or may be configured and constructed for blocking at least a part of the magnetic lubricant from crossing the pattern. The method of producing the building block may comprise a step of adding the first printed material to the second material via the additive manufacturing process under the influence of a predefined magnetic field.</p> |
