Focus on What Matters

We assess your needs and identify opportunities where additive manufacturing can make a difference.

Design Excellence

From concept development to the optimization of end products, we do the designing for you with high quality, and ensuring manufacturability.

Build Competence

Ensure your team takes full advantage of additive manufacturing. We offer runway by sharing knowhow and the best practices, collected from dozens of projects.

How Additive Manufacturing Has Added Value to Our Customers Products

 

Lightweight Frame

Welded aluminum plates were no option for this demanding industrial application. Additive manufacturing achieved weight reduction of 80% and combined 17 parts into one.

 

Emdedded Intelligence

Intelligent sensor was embedded inside a metal AM casing for a space mission. Solution performance was tested in space environment.  

Flow Channel

Machining is accurate, and additive manufacturing is flexible. Why not to use both of them in the same product?

Better function, less parts and 30 % cheaper price was achieved. 

Monitor Holder

Unique monitor holder was designed and delivered in under 3 weeks from customer request with additive manufacturing.

The focus was on usability and appealing look. It was manufactured within a fraction of the time the customer was used to.

Cleaning Device

600 bar pressure requirement and harsh environment were no issues for 3D-printed metal parts. Additive manufacturing was a clear choice to produce complex internal channels and reduce manufacturing cost. 

Spare Parts

No more obsolete spares. On demand manufacturing and more competitive spare parts with less time spent on waiting. Our AM team is proud to support several industrial companies to: 

  1. Screen parts 
  2. Decrease part costs 
  3. Develop digital spares library
