Application
3D Printing For Jigs & Fixtures
Customise everything from work holding devices to test-fixtures components.
Meet Demand Like Never Before
Unlike CNC machining and related processes, 3D printing doesn’t get more expensive and time consuming just because your design is more complex. That flexibility frees you to optimise jigs, fixtures, and other manufacturing aids, for specific tasks, components and individuals.
Benefits Of 3D Printing Jigs & Fixtures
Fast-Track
Assembly
Bring production online faster and avoid more costly errors. 3D printing work hold devices, dunnage trays, kits, guides and templates, is a great way to support agile manufacturing and improve product quality.
Protect Expensive
Equipment
Customise protective guards on covers for valuable equipment. Tough, impact resistant 3D printing materials like FDM Nylon 12 can withstand punishing conditions on the shop floor.
Improve
Quality Control
Support your quality-control process with part specific tools, cradles, test-fixture components and measurement aids. You can even print with non-slip or static-dissipative materials that won’t scuff finished surfaces or damage sensitive equipment.
Increase
Worker Safety
Switching from traditional metal tools to lightweight thermoplastics can help operators move freely and comfortably, to reduce strain and enhance productivity. Work-holding devices, jigs and fixtures can be customised to each individual and task for better ergonomics.
