From gasoline pipelines through titanium-printed parts for racing cars to series-produced components of Airbus A320 - there are no limits to 3D printing. 3D printing is a trend-setter in new thinking about design
- At the design stage, team of creative engineers hand-in-hand with the customer reflects on the optimization of 3D batch-production says Hubert Gleba of Materialise - With 25 years of experience in 3D technology, a team of highly specialized software designers and CAD engineers, we provide services to clients of various industries. Medicine, automotive, industrial machines, and even glasses rims - these are just o few of industries. 3D production can successfully replace most traditional techniques such as substractive machining. The laser sintering (SLS) production technology turns out to be indispensable, even in mass production. We can create all we can I imagine - said other speaker.
The 3D technology allows to produce a part in a smaller number. Thus is much simpler than the use of, for example, moulds. This is a perfect chance for production processes optimization and a shorter time to market of new projects.
