3D printing is a great solution not only for single products but also for small series production. This is evidenced by the growing need for companies in different fields to print not only one at a time but 50, 100 or even 500 items.
We always say to our customers that 3D printing will never go over mass production, but we keep our advantage in small series. Products casting of small series is a real luxury. Mold production and other technological nuances bring a high price, bearing in mind that the required quantity of products is low. Most often, for this reason, cheaper alternatives are sought and one of them is 3D printing.
In this article, we present one of the small production orders. 3D printing of 7-piece impeller prototypes has been performed. 3D printing was done by SLS industrial 3D printer. The products were printed from one of our strongest plastics – polyamide (PA2200).
This production method not only saves the cost for the customer but also greatly speeds up the production of small series objects. 3D printing prevents the production of expensive casting molds, thus achieving the highest work speed.
3D printing material: PA2200
