Change your paradigm about manufacturing tools.

There’s an alternative to heavy, non-ergonomic, expensive tooling that takes weeks or months to get into production.

3D printing offers a much more efficient way to create jigs and fixtures, assembly and inspection aids, end-of-arm tooling, machining soft jaws and forming dies. That’s because these tools can be printed in hours vs. days or weeks it takes with traditional fabrication methods. Jigs and fixtures manufacturing with strong thermoplastics offers a lighter alternative to metal, and 3D printing’s design freedom allows for optimal ergonomics and user-friendly tool designs.

Traditional vs. 3D Printing

3D printed tooling can make your factory floor more efficient, safe and cost effective.

All manufacturing operations use jigs and fixtures in some form, but making them with outdated methods is costly and time consuming. As this guide shows, 3D printing offers a better alternative.
