From lightweight, high-strength structures to hyper-realistic prototypes, 3D printing has found its way into a variety of applications. This process of additive manufacturing (AM) is becoming more common in high-volume production of designs with moderately complex geometries.

On every trade show floor featuring additive manufacturing, there’s a growing selection of additive processes for making production parts that stand alongside machines more commonly associated with prototyping. An essential aspect of additive’s transition from prototyping to production is data collection.

We test our products to ensure that they ship without defects. This helps reduce our scrap and warranty costs, and above all, create and deliver products that meet our customers’ needs.
