What is Additive Series Production?
While 3D printing was previously used primarily for prototyping, the new 3D production systems are finding more and more applications in series production. Newly developed 3D printers and printing materials now enable the production of hundreds of thousands of components. Additive series production increases flexibility in the manufacturing process and makes it possible to make customer-specific adjustments. No investment in an injection mold is necessary, thus the capital investment for new products can be greatly reduced.
Complex shapes possible
Fast series production
Wide range of applications
Together we validate your application in 3 steps!
01
Application analysis
The first step is a technical evaluation of your CAD data by one of our application engineers. In this step we discuss your application and the requirements and make a pre-selection of the printing material and the printing technology.
02
Cost calculation
Before carrying out the test print, we will provide you with a cost and time calculation. Possible post-processing steps can be calculated and discussed here. Together we validate the commercial side of your project in this step.
03
Sample part printing
In the third step, we produce some sample parts for you. You can then use the parts to validate the technical aspects of the project and perform all the necessary tests. A production system can then be installed at your site.
Advantages and disadvantages of additive series production with your own production facility
- High flexibility in manufacturing
- High complexity of components possible
- First components within hours
- Fast manufacturing
- High quantities
- Wide range of materials
- Not for very high volumes (>1 million)
- Rework may be necessary
- Learning curve
